The open borders crowd is once again outraged. This time over the expansion of a federal program that identifies illegal immigrants using fingerprints.
The federal government is rapidly expanding a program to identify illegal immigrants using fingerprints from arrests, drawing opposition from local authorities and advocates who argue the initiative amounts to an excessive dragnet.
The program has gotten less attention than Arizona’s new immigration law, but it may end up having a bigger impact because of its potential to round up and deport so many immigrants nationwide.
Wait, it gets better:
The San Francisco sheriff wanted nothing to do with the program, and the City Council in Washington, D.C., blocked use of the fingerprint plan in the nation’s capital. Colorado is the latest to debate the program, called Secure Communities, and immigrant groups have begun to speak up, telling the governor in a letter last week that the initiative will make crime victims reluctant to cooperate with police "due to fear of being drawn into the immigration regime."
Are you beginning to notice a pattern here? Every program we have that results in people who aren’t supposed to be here being sent back to where they came from is called “excessive” by critics.
We’re told crime victims won’t speak up. We’re told it amounts to racial profiling. We’re told San Francisco won’t cooperate.
I think San Francisco should take all the illegal aliens in America since they refuse to cooperate with ANY efforts to stop illegal immigration.
The truth is that liberal don’t want illegal immigration stopped because they see them as democrat voters and union members. Radical Marxist Latino groups want open borders and will fight tooth and nail to keep any law off the books that stems the tide of illegal immigration.
This is an outrage. We have every right to fingerprint illegal aliens. We have every right to know where they are and where they are. We have every right to arrest and deport them. We have every right to build a fence. We have every right to raid work sites and arrest the employers and the illegal aliens.
The United States is a sovereign nation that is being invaded. Yes, most just want to work but some have other intentions. It only took a handful of people to kill 3,000 people and bring this country to its knees on 9/11.
