It can cost illegal Chinese up to $20,000+ to be smuggled into the U.S. Where do they get that kind of money? Probably from their rich relatives in the U.S....or by working it off in "questionable" jobs after they reach their destination and/or held for ransom. At one time (before Bush stopped it), this was part of the "catch and release" program of OTM's (other than Mexicans). It amazes me that all of this "really serious" illegal business has been going on for years and very-little-to-nothing has been done to stop it. Heaven forbid that anyone should be offended by law enforcement enforcing our laws!!!

I would like to see stats on how many eastern Europeans are here illegally. There are lots of them I am sure of that.

I'm sure there's far more than 400,000 illegal Chinese in the US. But however many there are, they along with every other illegal alien including the reported 40,000 illegal aliens from Ireland all need to be bumped back to their nation of citizenship. And any country that refuses to take them should be removed from the Trade With US List.

hi i read the article about where you said that enforcement contributed to helping control illegals. i dont know where you can say that enforcement helped, when janet napolian wants to give amnesty, and made work force raids a thing of the past. enforcement of immigration laws, before a border patrol could approach a person and ask their legal status, but janet napolian stopped this. she is pro amnesty and if you read the articles in law enforcement magazines. also now Obama wants to cut down on border patrol agents by 180. like a guy wrote earlier as where he said he was a volunteer and watched hundreds of illegals cross everyday. not only mexicans, but all other countries. do you not think that terroists keep up with whats going on. all they have to do is pay a mexican or someone to just cross where they bring in the drugs and then blow us all to hell. it dont have to be a mexican, it could be anyone, i dont see real enforcement, only 25% of ILLEGALS THAT COMMIT CRIMES ARE DEPORTED, why NOT 100% deported.

Your Welcome.
Like I've said before..if there are any Illegals in OK, they're deep in hiding.
Their sure not running the businesses here like they are in So Cal. I'll vouch for that.

Y'all here have read the thread I posted.."Oklahoma Did It Anyway" ??

mkfarnam - Thanks for posting the "Oklahoma Did It Anyway" thread again. I had read it before, though I had actually read it on the Nebraska 9-12 website, it was posted there on discussion boards. Kudos to Oklahoma. Really wish more states would follow suit and "Do It Anyway", regardless of the usual babble from the pro-open borders crowd about how the states "can't" or "shouldn't". F--- them! The sovereign states can and should protect themselves as they darn well please!!

I was thinking about the government pushing amnesty. When you go through the immigration process they ask you if you were ever arrested. They also take your fingerprints for both residency and citizenship. That alone would disqualify a large number of them. Therefore I believe that many would not even attempt to get residency.

I don't really trust their numbers. There are still plenty hispanic illegals down here in Texas, but I do think some have left and they are a little more subdued than they were not too long ago. Good. We got 'em on the ropes. In offset, I see and hear more and more other races flooding in everyday it seems, speaking their weird languages. Indians, Pakistanis, Asians, Nigerians...you name it, we got it here in the city. Where are they all coming from, and what happened to English? You know, it would'nt bother me so much if they would try to assimilate into Americans but I don't think they want to.

Oh, and Rick Perry and Texas could learn a few things from Oklahoma, thanks for reposting that article!

No, they don't want it. They aren't here to talk to US, they're here to sneak around and plot against US using their native languages with US never being the wiser.

The only of ours they like is the American dollar. Sad but true.

Good news the number with immigration holds in Broward County are increasing. I guess they are getting frustrated as they can no longer get jobs easily and are resorting to other crimes. It is up to 37 for the month at this time. I don't know about the Collier County ones but they have a minimum of 2 arrests per day and if I am sure they have a larger number than Borward County with holds on them. The ones that do for sure are those who are wanted in another county as well. There is not much work there on the farms and the crops were damaged by the cold snaps we have had and they are getting caught stealing.

I wished I could start fresh in a new country.

PROPAGANDA!!! If DHS can count rthe ones leaving then why can't they catch the ones coming in illegally?
