But here, or for other crimes, the damage that might be caused by letting he guilty go free could be pretty serious. So that's their motivation. In the grand scheme of things, letting a few latinos get away with mowing lawns or washing dishes just won't justify the inconvenience I'll have to put up with. And making illegals fear contact with law enforcement will just make them easier prey for criminals. -- Paul Hovnanian mailto:Paul(a)Hovnanian.com ------------------------------------------------------------------ Happily doing the work of 3 Men ...

Those who live far from the border don't seem to understand the size & scope of the problem. It's not just a couple--half the kids in my SIL's elementary classroom (in a non-Hispanic area) were non-english- speaking kids of illegals. The local legal kids were consigned to the other half. In effect she had two separate classrooms packed into one, and had to teach each separately, cutting instruction for both in half. That's a formula for disaster, which it pretty much was. Also, the state pays roughly $12k a year per kid for that...it's an expensive disaster. That's for schools--now imagine the load on the emergency rooms, social services, etc. James Arthur

They don't care about you or me, they just care about getting there first and making others wait. And illegals fearing contact with law enforcement is nothing new, since criminals have always feared contact with law enforcement.

Men and women and families get returned as normal. Drug dealers, coyotes, and criminals become buzzard food. Break the neck, and launch carcass to other side of fence as a reminder to those that are still over there. Presumption of innocence is only for citizens. False entry into our land (border incursion) is a CRIME, and presumption of guilt is the order of the day!
