There are, after all, degrees of criminality, from infractions, to misdemeanors, to felonies, all of which have varying commensurate penalties. Felons, those who have committed the felony acts in THIS country, are and should be the first to be deported, and the host country SHALL accept them. They were very likely criminals in their own country, it should be the duty of that country to clean up their own house.

The very audacious manner in which these deportations are carried out should communicate a strong message to those who have committed lesser degrees of criminal acts, and a large self-deportation wave should see a lot of them fleeing to the relative safety of their homeland, or at least to some other country.

Those remaining, who have no further criminal record in this country, ought come forth and throw themselves on the mercy of ICE, to make a determination as to whether they have something of value to contribute, by way of gainful employment skills or of personal wealth, in which instance they may be granted a permanent resident status, with no path to citizenship until they return to their country of origin and apply for entry to become citizens. The rest, including anchor babies, are simply returned to country of origin, and the whole concept of birthright by place of birth should be sent to the courts for determination of the validity of the doctrine as intended under the language of the 14th Amendment. No dual citizenships are to be accepted, save in individual instances, and only by act of Congress
