Hello,
Just curious about your opinions. If you were given a certain amount of resources (money, manpower, technology, etc) and told that you could put it into either Border/Customs Security, or Interior Enforcement of our Immigration Laws, which would you choose? You cannot split up the aid, you cannot choose "neither" and you cannot choose "both." Just choose one. There is no right or wrong answer.
Have fun,
Ostrich
Interior enforcement, HANDS DOWN!!!
Interior enforcement!! Enforce the laws on the books.
Most certainly interior enforcement. Take away their main reason for being here and they'll think twice about coming.
I'm going with the rest of the crowd on interior enforcement.
Clearly interior because we need to root up the illegals that have invested their time in the US. That would be more effective than someone that ran across the border and will try again the next night.

Of course, interior enforcement.
If we just enforced the employment laws, they would not come and those here would return home.
It's hard to clean the barn when you leave the door open but if you don't put out any more feed the animals will not go back in, so interior gets my vote as well.
Interior Enforcement....I agree if the laws were enforced most would go home and drastically cut down illegals trying to cross.
Interior enforcement gets my vote too.Today if an illegal manages to sneak across the border and gets locked into a job of some kind,their chances of ever returning to their home country is slim to none.
If there was a sincere effort by the government for interior enforcement,most or all illegals would eventually be apprehended.they would never be able to stage their citizenship demanding marches because all the attention to themselves would increase their chances of being apprehended.
interior enforcement....dry up the jobs that are the incentive to cross that border
I would like to see movement toward ending this anarchy. Interior enforcement.
My initial reaction was interior enforcement, but the longer I think about it, I am thinking that border enforcement is the way to go. We have so called "interior enforcement" now, and it doesn't work. There are too many greedy people who will find their way around the law. No matter what happens, the illegals that are here, will end up staying one way or the other. Lets keep the rest out and scare the heck out of them so they do want to come here. America is a joke because we are so lenient. I think that we need to be prepared to shoot to kill (without law suits). What other country lets everyone come and go as they please?

I agree, I'll try to be more careful. I shouldn't assume that everyone can read my mind. :oops:

Let's all be a little more careful and take an extra moment or two to re-read our posts before we hit the submit button :)

Neese I wish I had a dollar for everytime I wrote a quick reply or thought and it came out opposite of what I meant thinking everybody would understand and all it got me was jumped on.Quote:

I just think that if you keep doing the same thing and you don't get a good result, stop what you are doing and try somethinge else. I genuinely do not believe that the majority of the people who live in the interior of the United States understand what is happening in the border states. We are not going to gain the support that we need to make sufficient change in this country unitil it is too late. Once the illegals gain the majority vote, which will not be long now, it will be too late to turn back. They have some serious support and it should not be taken lightly. Once these people get into the interior of our country, they blend in and the barn will never be cleaned because there are plenty of people willing to help. Also look at the drug trade. Wouldn't it be nice to stop the flow of drugs and death before it hits our neighborhoods? Why keep putting band aids on when you can sew up the wound?
This is no doubt that interior enforcement would be the most effective. If the employers were held to our laws the incentive to cross the border would be next to nil. No matter how we protect the border people will manage to cross. But no job, no reason to cross. Just then maybe Mexico would be forced to fix their own corrupted disfunctional society.
