In a recent CBS News interview, the head of ICE has warned that although his agency will search for illegals with a criminal history, they will also be looking for illegals along the way and there will also be consequences for employers who engage the services of an illegal.
He also pointed out that sanctuary cities will not be immune. If his agents have to go into a sanctuary city without that city’s cooperation, those agents will simply do their jobs whether mayors or whomever else wants it.
I think that any sanctuary city who defies ICE or who impedes their mission in any way should see its mayor locked up.
Thankfully, ICE is taking illegals down, with or without the help of sanctuary cites. In some cases, ICE is arresting 3,000 illegals in a single day. At that rate, a ton of illegals will be arrested and gone before the year is out, and that is as it should be.
I get it. Immigration was cute at one time. Hell, it was something that needed to happen to form our then new nation. But those days are over now. We no longer need immigrants, whether legal or illegal. It’s time to turn away any and all immigrants and cease handing out work and student visas like they’re candy.
It doesn’t matter to me: Mexican, Canadian, British, Dutch, whatever. If you’re here illegally, then ICE should be able to round you up anywhere you are. If that means an illegal or two is popped at a hospital, school, church, doctor’s office or whatever else, then so be it. It’s for the greater good.
It is encouraging to see ICE do its job in such an efficient and passionate way. Sure, an illegal may be able to hide 90% of the time, but it’s that pesky 10% that will see them rounded up and thrown into deplorable conditions until they are forcibly removed from our country.
