In my opinion if you're here illegaly "GET OUT"..or we'll throw you out..plain and simple no bleeding heart bs..And as far as if they're here but not breaking the law..HELLO..them being here by itself is breaking the law..again... plain and simple...
Eggzactly.
Its like driving without insurance.
Its law that you carry at least the minimum insurance or you can't legally drive your car.
It doesn't matter if you have an accident or not, without insurance you are breaking the law so you shouldn't be driving in the first place.
Well, yeah, however...
... the thing is, NO ONE has been willing to do what has to be done in order to get those people out.
No one. And it's not "bleeding hearts" that have primarily been in the way. Most of those folks are just being suckered by one of the cover stories certain politicians came up with to hide behind the fact that they weren't willing to do anything to address the problem in a practical way.
We STILL don't have a majority of politicians in either party who want to do anything about it.
I tried to warn various people before the election, that although Trump might personally want to deal with the problem, his chosen political party, the Republicans, do not.
And it's not because they are a bunch of wanna-be cheap labor fanatics, as they are often accused of being (though some no doubt are). It's that they are, as a party, opposed to expanding the Federal government, expanding government employees, against regulation of business (especially the larger ones), and against spending money on anything that primarily helps middle and lower class people. And the only way to ACTUALLY address the problem, involves all those things.
Basically, the GOP wont invest enough in the INS to address the problem, and they wont penalize or pay to enforce penalties against businesses who hire illegals, and they wont to anything to increase the expenses of businesses.
They USED TO excuse all this, on the grounds that they were opposed to requiring Americans to carry proof of citizenship at all times. That was a left-over reaction to having been through World War 2, and wanting to promote America being so great, because we DIDN'T do as the Germans did, and require "papers" all the time.
The wall is just another cover story. Trump likes it, probably because he is familiar with using real estate and construction to do things, and because it's dramatic. But it's impractical in the extreme, and it's expensive, and so again, the GOP isn't all that excited about funding it.
