the People Speak: Hold illegal immigrants at military installations

An alternative to holding illegals at city/county jails would be federally transporting them to military bases until deportation. via Muskogee Phoenix

If every state would only enact legislation like this man wrote.
Ilegal Alien Solution 101:'Get Them To Deport Themselves'
Topics: Immigration and Border Issues
It's almost too simple to be true, but it's both.
If ancient Egyptians could build the pyramids, if ancient Chinese constructed the Great Wall, we can deport any number of invaders and keep them out.
The second truth is that we don't have to.
The answer is - and these ideas aren't original - we can get illegal aliens to deport themselves. All we need understand is that man operates based on incentive, on reward and consequence, and devise policy accordingly.
Here's Selwyn Duke's "foolproof five-point plan that would put an end to the invasion of America":
1. Enact laws ensuring that employers who hire illegal will be punished harshly enough to deter the behavior; this will take the illegal jobs away.
2. Enact laws prohibiting illegal from receiving any government benefits.
3. Eliminate the standard that confers citizenship on children born to illegal on our soil.
4. Enact a law stating that any alien in violation of our laws caught on our soil beyond a certain date will be subject to severe criminal penalties.
5. Enact a law stating that, in addition, if they are found in the US after that time, they will forevermore be prohibited from entering our nation.
Understand that these measures will so greatly reduce the number of illegal (my guess is by 90%) that taking legal action against the lawbreakers who remain will simply be a matter of eliminating a few stragglers. The beauty of this plan is that it eliminates another excuse: "We'll never stop illegal from coming here anyway." Once America has been transformed from a big carrot into a big stick, they'll stop picking on our vegetable. Border enforcement would still be necessary, but only for the purposes of keeping true miscreants out, people such as terrorists and criminal gangs.

Im all for that.

Agreed. Treat them as a threat to national security? Has water boarding been outlawed? If so, can we at least point our finger at them and tease them, or is that cruel and unusual too?

Excellent plan.

DETENTION CAMPS!

[jannypan]

Sounds good but don't we already have dentention-type centers for illegals and their families? And haven't the illegals complained it wasn't as nice as the Hilton?
