<div dir="ltr"><div>That makes sense. Let's arrest them and throw them in jail. After all, folks don't seem to mind spending money on other folks as long as it comes in the form of involuntary incarceration. Or we could deport the illegal immigrants first and then let them back in once we get the dang immigration reform in place. That makes sense too. They've lived here, worked here, raised families here but let's kick 'em out and then let them back in on our terms.<br>
<br></div>There is a shortage of good ideas coming from the right on this issue. <br><br>My advice, Wayne, is that you should get over your anger and get used to the idea that a bunch of Latinos are going to be moving into your country over the next few years whether you like it or not. Then maybe you can come up with the best solution to this problem.<br>
