Title: Majority of Americans Believe Deportation of Illegal Immigrants Not Agressive... Post by: WhiskeyGirl on December 11, 2013, 06:07:17 PM Quote Majority of Americans Believe Deportation of Illegal Immigrants Not Agressive Enough ::snipping3:: Further, a majority of Americans want a secure border before any kind of path to citizenship is granted for millions of illegal immigrants already living in the United States. ::snipping3:: Americans believe federal government policies encourage illegal immigration instead of discouraging it. Over the past three decades, we've seen a catch and release policy being used to briefly detain illegal immigrants after a crime before being released. It is only after illegal immigrants commit a serious felony causing major bodily harm, injury or death to an American are they finally deported back to their home country. As a result of a porous border, these criminals often come back into the United States without detection. ::monkeyscissors:: read more and see statistics - http://townhall.com/tipsheet/katiepavlich/2013/12/10/majority-of-americans-believe-deportation-of-illegals-not-enforced-enough-n1760671 (http://townhall.com/tipsheet/katiepavlich/2013/12/10/majority-of-americans-believe-deportation-of-illegals-not-enforced-enough-n1760671) original http://www.rasmussenreports.com/public_content/politics/current_events/immigration/december_2013/60_think_u_s_not_aggressive_enough_in_deporting_illegal_immigrants (http://www.rasmussenreports.com/public_content/politics/current_events/immigration/december_2013/60_think_u_s_not_aggressive_enough_in_deporting_illegal_immigrants) Wow. Secure borders. What an idea. Title: Re: Majority of Americans Believe Deportation of Illegal Immigrants Not Agressive... Post by: Red on December 14, 2013, 02:56:32 PM Yup, what a novel concept, protect the borders. But if the Feds refuse to and they claim it is their Constitutional job to, then there is no reason why the Sates should not.
The GOP best not act so fast and agree to amnesty, it will be the end of their party. Can you say Whigs? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Whig_Party_%28United_States%29 Interesting article: States vs Feds: Borders and the Constitution http://tenthamendmentcenter.com/2010/10/04/states-vs-feds-borders-and-the-constitution/#.Uqy41uKOc9Y Quote It has been asserted by the federal government that the States are precluded from protecting their borders and controlling illegal aliens because the Constitution grants the federal government these powers. This assertion is erroneous because the individual States, as sovereign political entities, have the absolute right to protect their borders from illegal aliens irrespective of the Constitution or any power granted to the federal government. ::snipping3:: |
