If they broke the law to get here they are criminals. I think we need to start bussing OUR criminals into Mexico and releasing them ... then negotiate with Mexican officials on amnesty for those aliens who have behaved themselves before agreeing to round up and bring our criminals back here. Amnesty should be put on hold until the borders are secured. And then amnesty should be offered only to those who care enough about being an American that they have already become fluent in English.

Illegal immigration is ILLEGAL. Our government needs to enforce the law, not pass more laws and resolutions. Enforce the law. Build the fence Duncan Hunter got passed into law. We cannot have a "war on terror" without secure borders. As for the illegals already here, I think we should talk about it AFTER we have stopped the flow. I would like to see them deported, as they broke our laws to get here. I do realize, however, that this would be a daunting, costly task. If I were President, my preference would be to send them home, but I would be open to suggestions.
For so many years polilticians turned their backs on illegals entering this country. Illegals were and still are low wage workers who are a huge asset to the ag industry for one and others as well. Those here now will not be sent back. Although I do not agree with amnesty there will be no other choice to at least get them on the tax roles. I do believe those who commit crimes of any type except for driving offenses, unless death orrurs, should be deported with no way of coming back. For protection of US citizens, border security has to be a top priority. Before any amnesty is allowed Americans should demand of our government to secure our borders.
As humans we have ideals and ideas about many subjects. As humans who are also Christians we again have ideals and ideas about those same subjects. My question is "As a Christian, what do you think about the Illegal Alien subject in regards to, should we allow them to remain here and continue to let them illegally come into the U.S. or should we deport them and keep them out"?
