Immigration is not the reason we're going broke, and many factors are involved regarding crime. Immigrants are easy scapegoats.

This seems like legalized racism and the potential for abuse is extreme.

Also working for the local PD time after time again there are hit and run and hit and bail wreck involving illegals. Also PQ, Bonnie, Kathie and are kids where involved with a hit and bail accident down in Mobile in the last year with illegals bailing out of the car after smashing into a car that was then thrown into Kathies car with Bonnie and PQ's kids and my kids in it. We are lucky no one was killed and of coarse my insurance goes up because no one else was legal and had insurance but us.
That's horrible!

I just found it odd that a state so far from the border would have such major illegal immigrant issues. But, when you mentioned the chicken plants, it kind of makes sense. Poultry is one of Mexico's bigger agricultural industries, so I imagine plenty of illegal immigrants from Mexico would naturally try to get a job in a field they are familiar with...

Its about time we take back our country. Years ago you needed a sponser to come over, needed to secure a job, and learn the language. Now people keep coming over and at least in RI automatically get on the welfare system. No residency requirement, nothing. Hopefully this and all other states will follow suit

That is not how the law reads.. the law reads, IF you are detained for some violation, you must provide ID... you have to break the law first.

After you break the Law then yes it is a judgment call on the officer...

And yes the officer can look up your registration information and do a little checking... if things don't add up... you go to jail.

Dude, I'm with you. But, law is law. It's illegal to drive with out your DL with you... regardless of race...

People always talk about streamlining the immigration process, but i never hear of a Bill being introduced by those reps in congress that are for it. I wonder why. Maybe they want things to stay as they are.

didn't they stop building the wall?

It's always something when pro-illegal people talk about how the wall doesn't work anyway. If it doesn't work they wouldn't be so concerned about it.

Last month Obama made jokes about people wanting moats, and probably want alligators in the moats.
Two days later two border agents here got hit by a train and died while chasing illegals


It's hilarious.

This goes for any race. People think they are entitled to something they didn't work for anymore.

Waste of money. People wo are getting here illegally have better ways of getting here. You might as well line up a wall of fuzzy bunny rabbits.

really? that's not what CA will tell you...

They claim that wall has shown to be pretty effective...

Of course it will never stop illegals.

I'm neither for or against it... I like the idea of remote ranchers having some added protection but I also feel there are other ways to spend that money....

I'd like to see the numbers and where they got them from, because, from what I know, there has always been other more efficient ways to cross the border.
Either way, I think the public is focusing too much on the actual act of illegal immigration, instead of the real problem, which is the lack of support for legal immigration.

You want to live in the USA do it the right way and enter legally and pay for the services you use.

Scott, you sound like a Texan!!!

Checkpoints should be setup all over America, check EVERY auto! If you are drunk, Illegal, have or running drugs, owe child support.....on and on, let the law deal with your crime no matter your race, skin color, or nationality. Check me, I have nothing to hide!!

America, stop hiring Illegal’s!!!!
Americans, get off your lazy, Welfare, Food stamp butts and go to work!!
America, if parents of a new born baby that are here Illegally, America should not deem that baby an American citizen!!!
America, stop paying for Illegal’s healthcare!!!
America, stop paying to educate Illegal children....when we can't afford to educate American children!!
America, just enforce the IMAGRATION LAWS that are in place NOW!!!

That is all!!..........
