I had noticed the city had their regular drunk driving checkpoints on Memorial Day weekend and got to wondering how that works if illegal aliens are randomly stopped. I found this very interesting article for CA on the subject: https://www.usimmigration.com/dui-ch...king-down.html They say the number one law the illegal aliens break, well after either overstaying or entering without authorization is driving without a license. Chip, chip, chipping away at the problem.
In 2010, in this article, they were not doing anything with the illegal aliens, but now, with Trump in office and the law being enforced, I hope that will change, looks like easy pickins': http://www.nytimes.com/2010/02/14/us...anted=all&_r=0

Yep. I don't see why we shouldn't deport every illegal alien exposed by a such a checkpoint. The drunk drivers go to jail. The illegal aliens get deported.

Sadly I read several articles where the illegal aliens/sympathizers were crying over this because as criminals, they felt it was profiling. They haven't gotten anywhere with that. I know there have been many deaths at the hands of illegal aliens that were driving drunk, probably without a license. MADD is a big supporter of this, and I believe they are quite vocal.

No, the better solution would be to give them driver licenses and eventually legalize them. If they commit a serious crime such as DUI/DWI, then we should apply the full force of the law against them.
Why should they get DLs when they have no business being here, let alone driving? Besides, even when they can get licenses, many don't bother. It's not the panacea that you imagine it to be.
Why should they be legalized? Legalizing illegal aliens is a slap in the face to legal immigrants. I think that you are well aware of that fact, no?

Our DUI laws suck, they're never found after they're released bc they give fake names and fake addresses, they don't have money to cough up even if you do find them, and drinking and driving is one of their favorite hobbies.
Loser all around.

So your answer is to further facilitate their illegal activities in this country?
Give an arsonist matches?
Give a shoplifter an overcast with deep pockets?
Give a rapist condoms?
No what we should do is hold illegals accountable for the laws they break.

Illegal aliens are already violating federal law by being here. Deport them.
This is a great way to "kill two birds with one stone". You get drunk drivers off the road and apprehending illegal aliens is the "gravy"! The rules require that they announce these checkpoints ahead time, usually signs up, etc. Of course, a drunk or someone that doesn't read English...............
