I know liberals didn’t much like the late Sonny Bono. But he once said about illegal immigration, to paraphrase : “what’s to discuss, it’s illegal, these people are here illegally, let’s enforce our laws.” Or words to that effect.
I never understand why it is that we don’t enforce the immigration laws we have on the books, then say we have some crisis or problem due to illegals, but we don’t even try to enforce laws we already have on the books. Then we hear calls for some “comprehensive” immigration reform.
Especially after Obamacare, I don’t want to hear about any “comprehensive” solution to any problem.
Sorry to ramble, but trying to say, how big a problem would we have with illegal aliens if we had simply enforced the laws we already have? Enforce the laws against overstaying tourist or other visas, enforce the laws against hiring illegals, enforce the laws against paying people off the books, etc.
While we would still have problems with illegal aliens, I think that the problem would not have grown to the proportions it has, if we had been enforcing existing laws over the last few decades.
“Deporting illegals is embracing American LAW!”
And, a nation’s laws enshrine its values.
Deporting illegals is indeed support American laws and values. Only dem-rinos do not know that.
