DHS Policy Is Criminal
It’s always bizarre to me when I hear people talk about wanting to deport only those illegal aliens who are criminals. The Department of Homeland Security said it will start focusing on deporting illegals with criminal records and leaving alone illegals without criminal records.
Call me crazy, but if someone breaks our immigration laws and is in the United States illegally, he is a criminal.
Keep in mind that my in-laws immigrated to the United States. I’m not anti-immigration. I’m anti-illegal immigration. I would like to either see open borders (not my first choice) or I would like to see the border locked down and the creation of a simplified process for non-residents to be in the United States legally.
But this current in-between system that we have in which laws are selectively enforced and ignored isn’t good for anyone. It teaches both immigrants and our kids that laws don’t necessarily mean anything. If someone’s breaking the law by being in the United States illegally, why should he obey the law and get car insurance? Why should he worry about breaking the law by drinking and driving?
And now… the rest of the story. …..
