While I am sympathetic to the DACA people, the demands have made me less sympathetic. Their parents broke the law coming here and bringing them. That parents should be prosecuted and deported. The children who "came here through no fault of their own" never the less are here illegally. They have no right to be here.

The proper way to come here is to apply at the American Embassy in their country and wait their turn to be considered for immigration. Technically, those DACA people should be required to return to their country and apply for immigration, and wait like every other applicant. But I realize that many have established ties here, that they would be aliens in their own country.

The solution would be to grant them a temporary visa when they apply to immigrate. Then they are on strict probation to obey all laws while waiting. Any violation should bring immediate deportation and permanent exclusion from returning to the U.S.

This still gives them an advantage over those seeking to come here legally as they would be working at jobs, building their assets, where legal applicants won't have that benefit as they wait.

Unlike Rep. Martha McSally, I don't think border security and DACA should be combined in legislation. There should be no requirement to grant amnesty and/or citizenship to those not here legally in order to get border security.
