What is being viewed by many as an effort to stem the tide of citizen complaints about President Barack Obama’s attacks on Arizona and its immigration enforcement efforts, the Department of Homeland Security is reporting the largest enforcement surge operation of its kind ever carried out in Arizona.

More than 60 convicted criminal aliens and immigration fugitives have been arrested following a three-day targeted enforcement operation in Arizona, according to Homeland Security Department officials.
During the operation, which concluded last Wednesday night, Immigration & Customs Enforcement officers located and arrested 55 aliens with prior criminal convictions. In addition, 16 of the individuals ICE officers took into custody were immigration fugitives, aliens with outstanding orders of deportation who had failed to leave the country.

Three days and only yielding 60 illegal invaders! They could have hit up two Home Depot parking lots and have gotten more than that! How many loitering about in those parking lots have ignored orders of deportation or may be fugitives from justice!

You cannot pick and choose which illegals to deport! They're all criminals and they all must be deported!
