If the BATFE was put in charge of immigration ...

The lawyers would have it shut down within hours.

Guns aren't the source of power in the civilized world anymore, the courts are. That's why we have an illegals problem, because employers can only rarely be held accountable for hiring illegals, like in the article above where the feds could prove the factory had knowledge of illegality.

The "amnesty" bill in congress would have fixed that, but now it won't. We have ensured the status quo is maintained, with an annual growth rate of the illegal population of a million or so.

The Democrats couldn't be happier. They know their long term survival in power is now assured.

Not if they were really interested in solving the problem which they are not.

Giving amnesty to 40 million criminal invaders is NOT the answer either.

I lived in Corpus Christi and Harlingen, TX for three years each. I had no trouble at all telling the illegal alien criminals from the Americans of Mexican descent and neither did my employer. If they are adults and speak no English then it is evident that further questioning is required. If someone could not be interviewed in English and fill out an employment application in English they simply were not hired. If they tried to pull the discrimination crap we would simply explain that they could not converse with the other employees or customers and were then thrown out on their ear.
