It is quite clear what Jim was saying. It's kinda dumb to quote
him again, but here it goes. Of course one can look at the 1
day old whole message which is a typical anti-immigration
right-wing rant.
"When I suggest that illegal re-entry is a 'victimless crime',
that does not mean that there are not other crimes which
illegal re-entry employs (such as people-smuggling) and
further, crimes that it enables: Any crime subsequently
committed by a person who is illegally present in America.
Kate Steinle's case in San Francisco is an excellent example
of this. These crimes are ENABLED because the illegal alien
is in America. If he is out of America, he might still commit
crimes, but they would be crimes that some other government
would have to deal with.
Also, keep in mind that the U.S. government doesn't need to
actually convict these people of some crime, in order to expel
them. Put simply, if the government had actually been
enforcing immigration law for the last 30+ years, there might
easily be a half-million illegals in America, rather that what
I suspect to be, 20 million. (the figures bandied commonly
about, 11-12 million are nonsense.)
So, if ICE actually did its job, much of the crime associated
with illegal aliens simply wouldn't occur. "
* 'illegal' re-entry 'enables' crimes.
* person who is 'illegally' present in America
* crimes are ENABLED because the 'illegal' alien is in
America
* government doesn't need to convict...people...in order to
expel them.
"if the government had actually been
enforcing immigration law for the last 30+ years, there might
easily be a half-million illegals in America, rather that what
I suspect to be, 20 million"
that ^^^^^ sounds like a clear 'complaint' doesnt it. Notice
also the unfounded assertion, typical of propaganda, about the
numbers, inflated to 20 millions.
And the punch line, if "ICE actually did its job" those dirty
foreign 'criminals' wouldn't commit the 'crimes' they allegedly
commit in AMERIKKKA.
meh.
