Just look at DHS hiring standards. The bulk of their employment openings demand that applicants are bilingual (english and spanish, of course). It doesn't matter if you are bilingual in any other language, you are useless to them unless you speak spanish. These illegals don't even need an english speaking individual with them to file for benefits.

I'm sure the Mexican government laughs at us daily.

Not only the Mexican government, but we have become the laughingstock of the entire world. Our government is allowing illegal aliens to drain us dry, as our economy tanks, and millions of our citizens remain unemployed. No other country would tolerate this crap. I’m sure our enemies are all eating popcorn as they watch this BS unfold.

Then why would you continuing your drive to make it worse?

Would it not be better to cut our losses and keep the rest of that demographic in Mexico?

It is amazing to watch you guys cut off your nose to spite your face.

It would be so easy.

We need to have immigration patrol the street, and pull EVERYBODY over and check I.D.'s.

Not "SO CALLED" PROFILING - SIMPLY PULL EVERYONE OVER. If they did that then these pro illegal groups would have zero to complain about!

If they don't have any ID or refuse to give it. Then they need to go to a certain line for probing their identity further.

PERIOD.

They do nothing about this so NOTHING happens!

It's time to do something.

6 Months is all it would take.

I bet they'd find all kinds of rapscallions in this country.

So a new police force or triple the size of ICE...35 billion a year? Talk to your congressperson...maybe you can get him to sponsor the legislation.

What are they costing our society as it stands now? Sounds like it's high time for a cost-benefit analysis.

Just the concept by itself is brilliant. Imagine the jobs it would create. Talk about spending money that will boost our economy, not Mexico's.

I'm in California. Are you kidding? My congress rep is bloody Maxine Waters. I've called her office in the past and when they ask me where I live (I live in a tiny quadrant of her district that is on the border of another congress rep - used to be Jane Harmon) they FLAT OUT DENY THAT I'M A CONSTITUENT.

Nevermind Feinstein or Boxer.

Totally screwed. Would be a waste of ink, or breath, or bandwidth.

I've sent them all emails and got disgusted with the zombie brain eater email response, "thank you for your email"... I'm stuck on Feinstein's fluffy email blog updates - just pablum that means absolutely nothing.

So you agree we are not going to attempt to apprehend and deport the illegal horde. So we then leave it as it is so it can swell to 15 million?

The policy can work in the UK because to them anyone illegally in the UK is suspect. Here in the US only (insert current "illegal immigrant" political soundbite rhetoric here) will be suspect.

In the UK they are just as suspicious of a peron from France as they are from Sweden who they think is an illegal. In the US, you could be a felon wanted for sadistic murder of children and being a cannibal, but if your not spanish looking, nobody will give you a second thought even if you speak no english. But, a person who family has been in the US and fought in the revolutionary war, is hard working and own a business, can't speak a lick of spanish and was a decorated US Marine will be targeted if they look spanish.
