The "facility" should be a fenced in pen with a large pit for those who don't make it.
These are INVADERS! Treat 'em like it.
Yeppers!
COULTER: How we became world's suckers on immigration...
Looking at our immigration policies compared to the rest of the world, you’d think America lost a bet.The United States is one of only two developed countries in the world (the other is Canada, and even it has some restrictions we don’t have) with full “birthright citizenship,” meaning that any child born when his mother was physically present within the geographical borders of the U.S. automatically gets a U.S. birth certificate and a Social Security card.
That means legal immigrants, pregnant women sneaking in on tourist visas, travelers on a three-week vacation, cheap foreign workers on “temporary” visas and, in some cases, foreign diplomats.
There are laws on the books that say the kids born to diplomats don’t automatically become citizens simply by being born here but — like so many of our immigration laws — these are treated as mere suggestions.
And that’s not all.
We’re the only country but two that confers automatic citizenship on children born to illegal aliens, or “anchor babies.” This is not “birthright citizenship,” which refers to children born to legal immigrants. (There’s nothing vulgar, bigoted, racial or sexual about the term “anchor baby.” It’s a boating metaphor: A geographical U.S. birth “anchors” the child’s entire family in this country by virtue of the baby’s citizenship.)
The other two countries that grant citizenship to anchor babies are Canada and Tanzania. Canada doesn’t have Latin America on its border, of course — and Tanzania is reconsidering the policy.
Here’s a fun fact: Joaquin “El Chapo” Guzman — the notorious Mexican drug lord, sentenced on July 17 to life plus 30 years for drug trafficking and multiple murder conspiracies — has two children who are American, born in sunny California to his wife, who’s an anchor baby herself.
Why would any country make the calculated decision to reward illegal immigration by granting the full privileges of citizenship to the children of illegals or foreign visitors who arrange to have the births take place on its soil?
As a matter of fact, “we” didn’t make such a decision.
The late Supreme Court Justice William Brennan invented the anchor-baby policy out of whole cloth and snuck it into a footnote of an opinion written in 1982. Yes, this ancient bedrock principle, this essence of “Who We Are,” dates all the way back to the Reagan administration.
The Brennan footnote was not part of the decision. It does not have the force of law. Yet, today, we act as if Brennan’s absurd dicta is the law of the land for no reason other than: a) sheer ignorance and b) a fear of being called “racist.”
No U.S. Congress or Supreme Court ever debated and then approved the idea that children born to mothers illegally present in the country should automatically become citizens. Consequently, any president or Congress could simply state that children born to illegal aliens are not citizens. If only we had a president or Congress that would do so.
Which reminds me: No other country fawns over illegal immigrants brought in as minors, day in and day out, calling them “Dreamers.”
The U.S. is one of the rare countries that makes citizens of people who can’t speak the language — along with the masochistic Swedes. (How did they terrorize the world 800 years ago?) The United Kingdom, Canada, Germany, Australia, Norway and the Netherlands all have the crazy idea that citizens should be able to communicate with one another. We have a language requirement on the books but, it turns out, that too is merely a suggestion.
No other country holds a “lottery” in which the prize is U.S. citizenship. Ireland has a lottery but, for whatever sick and twisted reason, the Irish give the winners money, not citizenship in their country.
We bring in 50,000 lucky lottery winners each year, literally for no reason at all. (Thanks, First President Bush!) To enter, you must be from a specified country, like the Congo, Nepal, Ethiopia or Uzbekistan. You submit your name to the State Department and, if your name is pulled out of a hat, WELCOME TO AMERICA!
This rigorous system for choosing our fellow citizens gave us, for example, Egyptian national Hesham Mohamed Ali Hedayet, who opened fire at the El Al Airlines ticket counter at Los Angeles International Airport in 2002, murdering two people. His wife had won the lottery five years after he came here on a tourist visa.
It got us Sayfullo Saipov, the Uzbeki who plowed a rented truck into a crowd of bicyclists and pedestrians on Halloween 2017 in New York City, killing eight and injuring many more.
It bestowed upon us Akayed Ullah, the Bangladeshi national who got in as the nephew of a lottery winner. Ullah enriched us by detonating a bomb in New York City’s Port Authority in December 2017.
Speaking of nephews of Bangladeshi lottery winners trying to blow up the Port Authority, no other major country in the world issues a majority of its visas to people based on the fact that they have a relative already living here.

I'd submit that this represents an American strength. Not a weakness.Looking at our immigration policies compared to the rest of the world, you’d think America lost a bet.The United States is one of only two developed countries in the world (the other is Canada, and even it has some restrictions we don’t have) with full “birthright citizenship,” meaning that any child born when his mother was physically present within the geographical borders of the U.S. automatically gets a U.S. birth certificate and a Social Security card.
It's a HUGE weakness that is being exploited by evil globalists seeking to destroy the USA. Way past time to amend that stupid rule. OR! at least enforce the frickin' law!
Some bimbo from Central America comes here 8 1/2 months prego and drops a kid while here, has to go home when whatever terms of her visa are up. ICE can tell her, well, we suppose your newborn can stay, but you can't...bye bye!
Know what...most of dem bimbos would leave that kid, then sneak across the porous border later.
BUILD THAT WALL! (with turrets)
I found something I agree with you on. You shouldn't be excluded because of the sins of your parents. If you are born here you are an American. It might mean family separation if the parents have committed a crime, but if we stop the illegal immigration this would become a non-issue.
Read the above article, It's not even a law. The Brennan footnote was not part of the decision. It does not have the force of law. Yet, today, we act as if Brennan’s absurd dicta is the law of the land for no reason other than: a) sheer ignorance and b) a fear of being called “racist.” Only congress can make laws, not judges.

I don't disagree with birthright citizenship as it stands now. But I will step out and say that I do not believe that diversity for the sake of diversity is a strength. Our strength has always lied in a shared values of liberty and freedom. Your background or race is irrelevant.
Again, If we stop illegal immigration this becomes a non issue. This is only an issue because it is being abused by our lack of border enforcement.
Actually it's the lawyers and various judicial districts during the Carter, Bush and Obama ADM's doing their PC bidding that has screwed this all up for our country and it's security. The Bush's have been very quiet as have Carter and the other idiot from Kenya. All this recent ultra hard leftist and elitist crappola would even have socialist and "one world order" Sen. Edward Kennedy rolling in his grave.
Lib federal judge Shelly Joseph has been indicted for aiding an illegal scumbag immigrant evade the law. There's an awesome pic of her in tears walking with her POS attorney. (in tears because he just mentioned what his bill is going to be)
I love it! Effing lib judge, all of them, should be arrested and...guillotine!
Wonder how many of her cases will be thrown out if found guilty? Wonder how many of the subjects of those cases are now lost amongst our general population?Lib federal judge Shelly Joseph has been indicted for aiding an illegal scumbag immigrant evade the law.

"Orange is the New Black" series on Netflix. Season 7 and final year airing now. We binge-watched all 13 episodes over the past two days. Very heavy into the immigration issue...of course. Started out very lib....one character, a drug dealer and caught up in a killing and thus serving time is nearing the end of her sentence and lost her green card, she says "The real criminals are people who vote for the Republicans." To which other characters agree. All of the others are in Federal prison for various, mostly drug-relate, crimes and yet they are fit to proclaim voters being criminal. Hmmm...
I almost stopped watching the series after the lib BS. BUT! to my surprise, the series actually did an OKAY job telling the whole story. Yeah, it had a left-lean with ICE portrayed as Gestapo types, and the judges in the immigration courts who had the audacity to enforce the law were "unreasonable." But, the under-current of it all shows how dangerously stupid illegal immigration is! It showed the drug cartels, murdering people, the coyotes raping women and extorting money from these immigrants. And at the end....spoiler alert!....a key character, deported, and trying to sneak back across the border, breaks her ankle in the desert and is abandoned to die by the paid coyotes. That scene actually made me sad. Made me feel sorry for her, but also reinforces why illegal immigration needs to be shut down. Put these cartels and coyotes out of business!
Good point.
