Jackson, Miss. – Four police and public official groups in Mississippi oppose the state's immigration measure, which they worry will have an adverse impact on police and local government.

The Associated Press obtained a letter given to senators Monday by the president of Mississippi Sheriffs' Association and the executive directors of the Mississippi Association of Chiefs of Police, the Mississippi Municipal League and the Mississippi Association of Supervisors.

The letter raises questions about whether local law enforcement agencies would have to keep interpreters on staff and whether violent offenders would have to be released from jails to make room for undocumented immigrants.

It also asks what should be done with children of undocumented if the parents are taken into custody, and it says the bill could force increases in local taxes. Recent news reports show thousands of children around the country have been put in foster care following the arrest by immigration officials of their parents.

If a citizen goes to prison what happens to their kids? They are worried about an illegals kids? You come here illegally knowing full well you could get seperated from your kids, you pay the price. They don't learn!!! Take away the jobs and freebies and they self deport. Imagine all the money we could save!

"The letter raises questions about whether local law enforcement agencies would have to keep interpreters on staff and whether violent offenders would have to be released from jails to make room for undocumented immigrants."

What????? They wonder wether violent offenders would have to be released from jail to make room for undocumented immigrants???????? What kind of insanity is this? I can't believe that even came out of their mouths. Don't they realize how stupid they sound? You want to keep allowing illegals in then build more prisons. Easier and cheaper to just enforce the damned laws so they can't get here in the first place!

Can't argue with them facts...Americans get arrested and kept in jail MORE than Illegals do! Couldn't being to explain why, other than BS...and does anyone say "Oh my, what about the poor children left with no mom, or no dad"..Nope never have I heard of it!..Nothing but another BS excuse.
