re: Do You People Want Every Single Illegal Immigrant Deported No Matter What?

I want every person here illegally sent back where they came from, yes.

Either we're a nation or laws, or we have anarchy (or, at best, selective enforcement, essentially equal to some sort of royalty/nobility).

I have nothing against these people. We cannot continue to absorb millions and millions of undocumented, unvetted, untrained, unqualified, unskilled folks from third world countries who are barely literate in their own language, with no period of assimilation. We already have entire enclaves within this country that look, sound and act like third world places - and some of that is via legal immigration.

I'm not talking about all of them. I'm talking about the DACA kids. I'm talking about kids who were brought here and are now growing up, speak English, are graduating from American high schools, and are trying to make a life for themselves in the only country they've ever known. I'm talking about making a way for them to get legal if they will follow steps laid out for them. If they won't, then deport them. I'm talking about giving people who want to work hard, contribute, pay taxes, and assimilate a chance to do so because they didn't choose to come here - it was forced on them.

I'm not talking about any of the things you are. Stay on topic.

I am all for deporting criminal illegals, securing the border, etc. I am AGAINST illegal immigration, amnesty, and open borders. But, I recognize that some people - children - were caught in the middle of this mess and I am FOR providing them a way to get right with the law. Currently, there is no way for that to happen. I am AGAINST deporting them.
