What's going on at ICE

Cal Thomas reports on what is really going on at Immigration; more or less, ICE is cracking down on illegal immigrants who have broken laws (besides coming here illegally), but ignoring their responsibility to police the border and remove immigrants who have not broken laws not related to immigration.  Pat Buchanan concurs.

Interestingly, it's said that Mexican mayors are complaining about the criminal deportation program, noting that it's unsurprisingly raising their crime rates as criminals come home.  In other words, the liberal idea that illegal immigration poses no difficulty for our crime rates is (like most liberal ideas) just plain wrong.    Who would have thought that when a person breaks the law by entering and residing in a nation, they might also be likely to break other laws?

I mean, besides sane people, of course.  We can welcome and love virtually any number of legal, law-abiding immigrants, but sensible people would like to know that ( a la the crime wave from many Marielitos when Castro emptied his jails to send criminals here) they indeed are law-abiding.  That is, after all, why we have, and should enforce, immigration laws.
