Wake Sheriff Donnie Harrison, who estimates that at least 10 percent of the 1,200 people he houses daily in his three jails are foreign-born, can't wait for the deportation program to start. He brushed off criticism that many of the people facing deportation may be accused of nothing more than traffic offenses, such as driving without a license.
"They're the ones that made the mistake, we didn't," Harrison said. "They're here illegally."
Correct. If we are to restore credibility in our immigration system, at some time (i.e. now) we are going to have to finally stop making exceptions, stop making excuses, stop looking the other way, and actually start enforcing the law.
