Many persons present unlawfully in the United States entered lawfully, but overstayed their visas. Such persons have committed no crime. Their presence is a civil offense, not a criminal one.

My understanding is that immigrants are less likely to commit crimes than native-born Americans.

Since when has the wall been ceded by Trump and is a no go? Obama struggled to stop a government shut down also. Your remarks about our president are off base and just bitter lefty crying. Get over it!

This will be overturned in SCOTUS.

Federal judges have way too much power.
On what grounds? Keep in mind that your answer must cite a specific law or the constitution. "Because I want it to be that way" doesn't mean squat.

And I note that your second sentence does not go well with your first. If you really think that federal judges have too much power, why on earth would you be cheering on SCOTUS?

Most illegals aren't visa over stayers so let's put that lie to rest, shall we? "Immigrants"? Illegal aliens aren't "immigrants".

What difference does it make? Every crime committed by an illegal alien would have been prevented if they weren't in our country. We have enough of our own home grown criminals to deal with without adding illegal alien criminals to the mix.

States do not have the right to pursue policies that undermine federal law:
Let us know when that happens.

Local authorities are not able to determine this.

Geeeez, Donnie can't get a break ! All of his great ideas are being shot down and his team of "the very best people" can't shoot straight. I think I'll open a Corona and toast another "victory" for Trump.
Do you really think the 9th Circuit's and that Washinton judge's rulings on his travel ban were well-argued? The 9th Circuit's standing argument alone was a laughable piece of bull$h!t.
