    Look, whatever you have done with Midtowner, its not too late to end this rationally. If he is still alive, release him, and turn yourself in.

    While you're here though. I have to mention you've hit on two of my favorite ideas:
    Go after the employers, not the illegals. Send them to jail, that will chill the whole problem fast.

    Bring back the orphanages. Kids would turn out better there than with most of these welfare parents.

    3)Issue "shoot to kill" orders for any illegal attempting to cross.
    4)Impose massive fines and jail time for any employer who is caught employing illegal immigrants.
    5)Deport illegals on an "as they're found" basis.
    3) is a little much, but the idea of "one strike and you're out" as far as deportation would work for me

    i think the privatized prison business really needs to be worked out, personally

    California prisons are big business, and if they didn't have any illegals in them, i'm sure they would be losing a chunk of money and probably have a lot of lobbyists involved in keeping illegals in their prisons instead of going back home so taxpayers can keep paying for them

    An illegal's status is worse than a convicted criminal...illegals are guilty of committing a crime every second of every day they stay in the US. They are a perpetual crime machine that only ceases when they are deported or are perhaps executed.

    Meh.. no. Too expensive to patrol the border. My solution is land mines. We could defray costs by placing high traffic areas on PPV and giving cash prizes to the few who survived the crossing.

    I'm unsure about the orphanages. I have no idea why all 50 states turned away from them. Was it costs? Was it effectiveness? I do a significant amount of pro bono work representing kids against their deadbeat parents in juvenile deprived cases. I've seen foster parents who are just awesome people. I have to think that the foster parents option probably is better for the children than an orphanage, but I could be persuaded otherwise.

    Knowingly employing illegals should be a serious felony 5 years to do minimum sentence. We also ought to offer bounties on employers who get turned in--even fast track illegals who turn in their employers for citizenship status.

    We're not going to see any serious moves towards solving this problem. Big agriculture depends too much on illegal labor. I wouldn't mind paying a little more for my produce if it meant we were putting U.S. citizens to work at decent wages.

    I want to emphasize that I agree with your views on the subjects we've discussed. I also want to remind you that as long as no serious harm comes to Midtowner, there can still be a peaceful end to this.

    Or alternately; who took you to the revival?

    Criminal Okie, this is old territory. Unlawful presence is not a violation of criminal code. It is a civil code violation - unless the alien was once deported and unlawfully returned.

    Honestly, though, the way you use "illegal" as a noun and the Beastie Boys use "party" as a verb doesn't bother me at all.

    Re: Drop the I word

    I am curious to your view of the word trespasser.
    Def #2 is
    a wrongful entry upon the lands of another.

    Are you OK with that one?

    You are probably right San Joaquin, invader is a much better term.

    Scout, if you catch an alien mowing your lawn without your permission, yes -- he be a trespasser.

    Had that happen, San joaquin (maybe I already told you). The invader mowed my lawn about 5 times before I took pity on him and told him he was mowing the wrong yard. He11, I even gave him about $40 for his trouble (he had a wife and 4 kids in tow so I thought they could live it up). I don't even remember calling ICE.

    I thought you said you stiffed him. But $40 is more than generous* ... so Okie's gotta soft spot in his heart for baby Jesus and his cause after all.

    Toughening up the Borders is fine with me.

    I'm also fine with nailing the jerks that hire illegals.

    Closing some bases is OK too. WW2 is over, last I heard, as well as the Korean Conflict.
