    They need to do these raids all over the country. These illegal folks need to go home.

    Nearly 3,000 Illegal Aliens Caught in Seven-Day ICE Sweep:

    Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents arrested 2,901 illegal aliens over the last 10 days as part of an effort to catch and deport illegal aliens who have committed crimes. As part of the round-up, 42 gang members were arrested and 151 sex offenders.

    The results of this targeted enforcement operation underscore ICE’s ongoing commitment and focus on the arrest and removal of convicted criminal aliens and those that game our nation’s immigration system," said ICE Director John Morton.

    The round-up took place in all 50 states and involved 1,900 ICE agents. The nationwide raids also included the seizure of 18 weapons.

    All of the 2,901 individuals taken into custody had prior criminal convictions including at least 1,282 aliens who had multiple criminal convictions. More than 1,600 of those arrested had felony convictions including manslaughter, attempted murder, kidnapping, armed robbery, drug trafficking, child abuse, sexual crimes against minors, and aggravated assault.

    That's a start, but just a drop in the bucket since there are 10 million or so more to go...

    So get busy, ICE!

    Blame Obama.

    Oh! Wait a minute! He's only the President so has nothing to do with ICE arousing from it's slumbers and suddenly taking an interest in immigration and customs enforcement.

    Are we talking about Latino immigrants here? Are Latinos the only criminal immigrants?

    I agree. This is our federal government's responsibility. However, since they are failing miserably at the border, I think that Uncle Sam should embrace the States' actions on illegal immigration, instead of challenging them in court.

    He is doing this to appease the right. However, he has granted back-door amnesty to hundreds of thousands, maybe millions, using an executive order, which is most certainly unconstitutional.

    They are not the only illegals, but face the facts, they are the majority of them.

    In fact, a significant number of Latinos have joined up the US military, most of them for a chance to get a green card.
    They may not have done much for Obama, but they seem to have done quite a bit to suck up to the Military and Federal gov't.

    It's not "what have they done for him", but "what they will do for him?" He wants to create millions of democratic voters with the swipe of a pen.

    Immigration from Mexico in fast retreat, data show
    November 15, 2011 - Census figures show that fewer people are leaving and many are returning as a lack of jobs in the U.S. and tighter border enforcement dissuade many who might have entered illegally.

    That is like the government saying they have "reduced the deficit".

    Illegals are still invading! Yes, the problem is getting worse at a slower rate, but it is still getting worse! And what is being done to work on the problem that has already developed? Nothing.

    Funny how immigration laws, when they are enforced, actually work. Obama should take note.

    So all 10 million are guilty of "manslaughter, attempted murder, kidnapping, armed robbery, drug trafficking, child abuse, sexual crimes against minors, and aggravated assault"? Sure, most of them probably jumped the border, but do they deserved to be lumped with the aforementioned felons? Next time you see a Mexican perhaps you will jump at the phone and dial 9-11 then?
