the US is a nation of laws, no matter how few are enforced

You obviously want the immigration laws enforced. But please don't tell me you want every law on the books rigorously enforced. It would turn the US into hell on earth.

When we’re talking about 12 - 20 million criminals, I’d settle for “moderately enforcing the law” as opposed to almost completely ignoring it.

Clearly the book (that is there to be thrown selectively) needs to be edited.

Every law should be enforced or taken off the books. Written law cannot and must not be ignored, arbitrarily or selectively enforced or it's not law at all. It then becomes only a tool of despotic government.
