Today's Letter: A Reader Has Ideas On Deporting Illegals, Even If Bush
Has None

From: Ryan Kennedy [email]

I was thinking about what I'd do about illegal immigration if I were
President....

I think this is part of what I'd do:

Cops sometimes trick masses of people with outstanding arrest warrants
into coming to them. They send out letters to fugitives saying they've
won a prize, like a plasma TV or something. Then they tell them to
come pick it up at such and such address, usually an auditorium. The
group is assembled and then the police pounce, arresting everyone there.

That's sort of what I'd do. I remember a few years ago, some wild
rumor got started in the illegal "community" that the INS was
registering illegals in order to amnesty them later. That is, when the
amnesty came, you had to be registered in order to receive it. So
people in Mexico (or wherever) wouldn't hear about the amnesty and
decide to sneak in and say they've been in the US for years. Anyway,
that was the crazy rumor. And illegals showed up at INS doorsteps in
droves. The line in several cities snaked around whole city blocks.

I'd do this. I'd announce that ICE needs to register illegals in order
to amnesty them later. Then I'd process them. I'd have groups of
illegals go from one station to another. First station would ID them
and see whether they are illegal or not and ask if they knew where any
other illegals were. Then a group would be brought to the second
station out of sight and ear-shot of the others. Here they would be
arrested and put on prison buses. The buses would then transport them
to planes or boats.

I think probably boats, because I bet Mexico would at some point
refuse to take back the massive amount of illegals. We'd probably have
to ship them to the coast of Mexico and put them in rubber dinghies.

Of course my plan would probably work for only one day or less. And
would depend a great deal on operational security. I wonder if some
Hispanic ICE worker would spill the beans. Maybe keep the plan secret
from many of the ICE workers themselves.

And my plan would depend on immediate deportation. But I bet I could
arrest and deport a truly massive number of illegals in one day.

Another thing I'd do; I'd prove that yes it is possible to round up
all of them. At least in a small area.

I'd find a few communities in swing states where there has been a big
uptick in Hispanics since 2000 and where they are about 10%-20% of the
population. Also it'd help if the native community was up in arms
about the problem. Probably in the South or Mid-west. Then I'd do big
raids on industries there with a lot of illegals, then arrest any
loitering illegal day-laborers then go door to door asking where the
illegals are. Basically do a dragnet of the whole town. The illegals
that were not caught would be freaked out and probably get the hell
out of Dodge.

Probably the MSM would go nuts. I'd use the media attention to say
this was just a pilot program and that we're gonna do this all over
the US. Illegals would freak out and many would leave. Many similar
communities experiencing lots of illegal immigrants would beg the feds
to do the same thing in their own towns. It'd be great, I just know it.
