re: #114 Walter L. Newton

Ok… I’m not talking about that sherif, I’m not talking about Bush, I’m not talking about the new law (which is not law yet), I’m talking about existing enforceable law…

Then, in your opinion, shouldn’t the current Federal laws in relation to immigration and border controls be enforced to their fullest extent?

Yes, the laws shouled be enforced. But that means physically closing the border and patrolling it aggressively, which costs money. Registering and tracking immigrants will also greatly expand government bureaucracy and cost money.

There are a lot of folks who are opposed to more government on principle. And a lot of cynical bastards who have a lot of interest in maintaining the status quo who are happy to exploit their principles.
