[Sherman Logan]

Our laws are strict mostly in contrast to their utter lack of enforcement.

There are pretty tough penalties in the laws, they just aren’t used.

"I’m up for a political discussion of why and how our immigration laws should be changed... our present system of fairly strict laws and very little enforcement is the worst of both worlds."

"There are pretty tough penalties in the laws, they just aren’t used."

Which is exactly why, when our immigration laws have so generously allowed 20 million legal immigrants a year in the past 20 years, a discussion of how those laws can be made less "strict" is irrational. The only thing needed is serious enforcement against the tens of millions who see that generosity as in invitation to ignore our laws.
