#1 .. let the punishment fit the severity of the crime, not exceed it.

Which crime? The one committed when they first entered illegally, or crimes committed after that?

I forget which blog, but I saw a comment to the effect that illegal immigrants' lives here in the U.S. need to be made very inconvenient, and that included aggressively prosecuting employers of illegal aliens and removing FDIC coverage to banks that accept matricula cards as ID.

Sounds great to me.

#2 As long as you're not emotional about it, B-a-R, then cool.

#3 Badda bing!

But seriously folks .... there are a lot of issues wrapped up in the topic of illegal entry / illegal immigration / legal immigration policy. Not to mention national policies for identification cards. Let's try to set the terms of the debate on all this.

BaR's attitude is not uncommon among people who've lived near the southern border. I'm worried about all this too - just want to point out that economic, social and homeland defense are separate issues even though they intersect WRT the flood of people entering illegally.

#4 I've been pushing militarizing the border over at my blog, Old Patriot's Pen. Let's face it - we're at war with a group that has no more respect for our borders than they have for their own women and children. Our borders are as much a war zone as Iraq or Afghanistan. Our borders are no longer a law enforcement issue, but a national security issue. It's time to give the job to the people that defend our national security - the US Military.
