Obama was the Deporter in Cheif. He deported millions by immigration order, more than any other president, and that number doesn't factor in self deportation or people who were turned away...an even greater number. Who, or what, told you otherwise?
Quote:When Trump was elected and announced that we would be turning illegals away at the boarder and actively deporting any illegal who commits a crime. The illegal traffic across the boarder substantially subsided. (granted they ramped way the hell up in the months after election but before inauguration)No, it didn't. Who or what told you this?
Quote:These laws are on the books and should either be inforced or changed. I realize that a majority of illegal immigrants who come over the Mexican boarder are trying to find a better life but they are at the end of the day breaking the law. Being deported is just as much a part of the risk as all the other dangers faced coming here illegally.Oh, you mean "immigration reform"? We were changing them...................illegals are here, and there will always be some for whom any risk is miniscule compared to the perceived reward. All we decide in immigration law or reform is what sort of country we want to be in the face of that reality, which is beyond our control. I can;t even fathom the impetus for getting rid of them, we need them...they enrich our lives and coffers - our entire economic system depends upon them at the lowest and most fundamental levels, lol? What, do you think, the immigrants have done to you?
If these immigration law would have been enforced then less illegals would be here now.
