Default 270 Illegal Immigrants Sent to Prison in Federal Push

Quote:
In temporary courtrooms at a fairgrounds here, 270 illegal immigrants were sentenced this week to five months in prison for working at a meatpacking plant with false documents.

The prosecutions, which ended Friday, signal a sharp escalation in the Bush administration’s crackdown on illegal workers, with prosecutors bringing tough federal criminal charges against most of the immigrants arrested in a May 12 raid. Until now, unauthorized workers have generally been detained by immigration officials for civil violations and rapidly deported.

So instead of deporting them, we are going to pay $3,000 a week to house and feed them? Instead of being productive workers paying into our Social Security fund which they will never draw from, we are sending them to a place where they can learn the art of gangsta. Teach them how to act on their anger for having been imprisoned. Force their families to rely even more heavily on social programs to get by while the bread winner is in prison.

Brilliant!

Check the records of those hiring illegals, there is no SS being paid into the system, even if it is withheld from the pay checks of those illegals.

I do however agree that they should just be deported, and those that hired them should be charged for the cost of their transportation, then imprisoned themselves.

Why should American citizens be imprisoned, while the illegals are set free?

What Teak said. I also dont want our prison system so full of mexicans that there no more room for the Charles Mansons out there. Deport them, build the wall, and lets be done with it.

To eliminate the magnet that draws illegals here in the first place, jobs. Not only should they be imprisoned, they should lose their business and anything it allowed them to purchase. Now if we could revoke their citizenship, and deport them, there would be no need to lock them up. But, alas, we can't do that.

Arrest, charge and convict the majority leader of the California House of Reps for not securing the CA border, 25 years.......no parole.
You will see a quick transformation at the borders and no more sanctuary cities in America.

So stop electing the same assholes term after term. Hell, Kennedy has been there for 40+ years, most of the others for at least 20. Yet term after term they are sent back. Or, you can do what Oklahoma and Arizona have done and force your state to enact tough laws on illegals and those who employee them.

To hell with deporting them immediately....when they're caught, put them to work without pay for the time of their sentence. This way, the jobs "Americans won't do"(as if) gets done and at the same time they'll be paying for both their stay and their traveling expenses back home. It's time to re-establish hard time labor for these illegal migrants.

We don't have enough prison space, or prison staff to house the home grown criminals we need to lock up, more-less 15-20 million illegals. GET REAL. To solve the problem you lock up and fine (heavily) the employers.
