ergo not deporting is amnesty.

As I have ALREADY SAID, if you do not think the requirements I listed are tough enough, propose tougher ones which make moving back to Mexico the only logical option.

I'd enforce the law, remove all the freebies and the opportunity to work for salaries so low that they are subsidized by US tax payers through sundry aspects of the safety net.

Those were all included in my proposed requirements.

While in theory, I as well would like to see the deportation of all illegals, whichever political party attempts the deportation of 40 million people will not survive the media onslaught to be in power for a number of election cycles, perhaps even decades.

"ergo not deporting is amnesty."

As I have ALREADY SAID, if you do not think the requirements I listed are tough enough, propose tougher ones which make moving back to Mexico the only logical option.

And I already said, enforce the law. No words games around 'a pathway to citizenship' which is amnesty.

... While in theory, I as well would like to see the deportation of all illegals, whichever political party attempts the deportation of 40 million people will not survive the media onslaught to be in power for a number of election cycles, perhaps even decades.

So which other laws should we choose not to enforce for fear of the ire of the MSM? Should we not repeal ObamaCare because the MSM will get upset?

As I wrote enforce the law: Penalize employers of illegals. Remove the ability to work at salaries that require tax payer subsidy and remove all the freebies and the illegals will self-deport.
