As with E-Verify the politically explosive computer Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) program to eject illegal workers from work sites, has definitely proved its worth? The 287 (g) federal training program that deputizes state, county police with a right to apprehend illegal immigrants, has been under continuous flak to rescind it by powerful ethnic caucuses.

Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano has been intimidated to undermine ICE raids around the country? But E-Verify, 287 (g) has already embossed itself in the publics eye of it's enforcement capabilities and cannot easily be weakened. Public Outrage is like a gathering storm that is descending upon all politicians, who have given approval and one hundred who drafted a letter to President Obama demanding Comprehensive Immigration Reform.

WE MUST JAM THE SWITCHBOARDS IN WASHINGTON, PUSHING OUR OWN DEMANDS at 202-224-3121 that bars illegal aliens from the health care insurance "exchange" OR ANOTHER TRAVESTY OF AN AMNESTY. YOUR VOICE IS MAKING AN IMMENSE DIFFERENCE TO HOW THE POLITICIANS VOTE? WARN THEM OF THE CONSEQUENCES OF IGNORING PUBLIC OPINION.


NO NEED FOR ANOTHER DUBIOUS AMNESTY, ADD AMENDMENTS TO THE 1986 SIMPSON/MAZZOLI ACT.

Seth, your conclusion is:

Because 55 people were erroneously detained, therefore the US should reform of our entire immigration system (that is reform = provide citizenship to 12 million who are illegally in the country)?

That makes no sense at all.

Thank you for pointing out the cases where mistakes have been made and legal immigrants were detained. No system is perfect and it is a difficult and daunting task with over 12 Million illegal immigrants currently in the USA. No one is perfect and we cannot expect law enforcement to be perfect either. But the US government has charged them with enforcing our immigration laws. 55 out of 12 million is 0.000046% false error rate. Thank you for showing us how accurate ICE has been in avoiding false detentions.

Great advise for Republicans and Nativists, so they might run faster for cover when caught BS'ing on the Internet...
