For those who disagree with Trump, go to any foreign country illegally and get caught and see what happens. EVERY country will deport you , if your lucky. But the U.S. we are racist and mean for doing it. I say get rid of them now!

So Trump's plan to get rid of the immigrants is to expand the government?
Well - it did work for Bush II - Homeland Security - LOL

Funny, I never mentioned our current, fearless leader. And so what if he did? Them numbers are still to low! This is what it boils down to. Libs want, Socialist minded folk at thier voters base. Screw things up enough that the laws can't be enforced, even if they tried. Nothing is done by our government, without the solution being the cause. Goes for every "party". It's against the "law" to be illegal in this counry. Pure and simple. All I said was we already have Federal LEOs supposed to be showing illegals the door. Don't need another tax sucking acronym to do the same job.

We already have a "deportation force" and all the laws necessary already exist. The only thing we're missing a President and administration that would actually follow and enforce the existing laws using the existing govt resources.
I asked someone else this, but I'm really curious. How can Obama's deportation numbers be at an all time high but he isn't following the laws on the books?
Does that mean that Bush and other conservative Presidents that came before him didn't follow the laws either since their deportation numbers were much lower?

Simple. There's more illegals coming across the border than ever. Obama can deport 25% of the illegals coming across and still have higher numbers than any previous administration who deported 50%.
As the Department of Homeland Security continues to pour money into border security, evidence is emerging that illegal immigration flows have fallen to their lowest level in at least two decades. The nation’s population of illegal immigrants, which more than tripled, to 12.2 million, between 1990 and 2007, has dropped by about 1 million, according to demographers at the Pew Research Center.

Excuse me but as an AMERICAN I think my RIGHTS TRUMP an ILLEGALS rights by a long shot.
Excuse me, but as an American you should know that our Constitution SPECIFICALLY says that no one person's rights trump any other person's rights.
Well does a citizen of the usa have more rights than a illegal immigrant?
No.
That is what is being said that those not here legally do not have the same rights that were granted to the citizens by our creator via the constitution.
You tell me. Does this say that ALL men are created equal or just legal American men are created equal?
United States Declaration of Independence
We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.

I thought the Constitution is supposed to exist to protect the natural rights of humans? So why wouldn't illegal immigrants have rights? Are they not humans?

The United States Constitution doesn't protect the natural rights of humans. It protects the natural rights of United States citizens.

The United States Constitution doesn't protect the natural rights of humans. It protects the natural rights of United States citizens.
Really? Can you point out where it says that in the Constitution then? Because I can't seem to find that anywhere in it.

This is quite simple to solve. IS it possible for a non-citizen to use the US constitution to protect them if they are in another country? Well if not then obviously those protections are meant for US citizens.
