We need to secure the border..... how fucking hard can it be?
seriously in the scope of things it would be dirt cheap to build a Jurassic Park style electric fence the entire border..... anything that messes with it is done
once the border is secure then you can deal with the illegals in country already
that is just my 2 cents

Or we could do as thrash suggests:

There's a very easy way to fix the immigration problem. Remove the incentives for people to come here.What are the incentives?
- free housing
- free education
- jobs
- free ER treatment
- lucrative drug market
- complete lack of enforcement of border security
I don't dispute that there is a problem. But the approaches being suggested [asking everyone for papers, building a giant fence, building a giant kill-zone]... i mean were you guys paying attention in world history class? ** Do you think that the government told east berliners that the wall was to keep them IN while they were building it? "Oh fuck! Now that we're trapped inside this place by the goddamn army, I guess we should have thought harder about what they were doing to keep out those evil Westerners!"**
The only solution, is to remove the bad incentives. It's not an issue of whether mexican immigrants are good or bad people. They are reasonable people making a reasonable choice, given the incentives. Remove the bad incentives:
- remove the minimum wage and other protection laws that make it impossible to hire Americans into low-wage positions
- remove the "must-treat" rules at ERs, so that people can be turned away at the providers discretion
- remove birth-right citizenship for all people. Native-born Americans have just as much lazy-lard-ass entitlement as some of the immigrants do
- remove housing assistance, education, scholarships, etc for all non-citizens (remove it for everybody, eventually)
- repeal drug laws that finance much of the organized crime
- untie the hands of the border patrol and private land owners on the border.
- authorize shoot-on-sight prosecutorial immunity for private land owners in high-crime / high border-crossing areas
Basically, i want all of the people I can get as long as they are willing to work instead of mooch. We cannot make people work, but we can keep them from mooching.
If people want to come gushing across the border to work their ass off, and to be net contributors -- let them.
I'm kind of back and forth on the minimum wage thing, but ultimately I think it has done more harm than good. If you raise minimum wage all you really do is raise the price of goods.
I also think (to add to this) that employers should be held liable to a higher degree for hiring illegal laborers.

You prob know this, but this has nothing to do with the new AZ law since it's not enacted yet. It was the Feds that detained him.
The new AZ law actually says that a drivers license IS a valid form of identification (line 39 of the bill).
It will be interesting to hear what the feds had to say about this Abdon guys detention. Everything I've been able to find just tells one side of the story, it doesn't seem legit.

I didn't say "ID". I said birth certificate. AZ will not consider your ND drivers license as valid if they don't think the ND licensing process does sufficient due dilligence to show legal resident status before issuing a license.
They have already thrown a US Citizen in jail in AZ.. a trucker who had a DL/CDL from a state they didn't "trust" to do good enough background checks.
His wife had to go and dig up his real birth certificate before they would let this guy out of jail. For what? For being guilty of being brown?
AZ [and the USA in general] is in a bad situation; intelligent people don't deny that. But this cure may be worse than the poison. There are certainly better ways of dealing with the issue than requiring all Americans to be able to hand over birth records at any time. Thats some soviet union bullshit right there.

As in lived here their whole lives and are truly American Citizens. What he is getting at is until you can PROVE you are a citizen you can be held on suspicion of being an illegal until you prove your innocence. The ONLY way to do this is via birth certificate as it isn't all that hard to obtain a drivers license, even if you are an illegal alien.
The WHOLE PREMISE of this society is that you are innocent until PROVEN guilty, not guilty until you can prove otherwise. That (I believe) is what thrash is getting at.

You're held in Jail until you go to court.......But only if there is just cause to hold you. Demanding paperwork and/or putting up a kill zone fence (to keep others out or us in) makes us no better than a communist state. And here YOU thought I was the crazy liberal on this site....

You are entering a world of pain.
Before I make it amply clear why you have no business getting in an interweb argument with someone as awesome as me, I'll give you the opportunity to back off.
Just respond to this message with the following text:
"Sorry dude, I am not normally so fucking stupid so as to walk my barely coherent ramblings infront of the intellectual freight train of a thrash-is-explaining-politics post. I was drunk posting. I'll probably fuck up and do it again, but i am apologizing for this time."
Do that ... and you won't have to have your e-shit e-ruined any e-further.... E-bitch.
