This story shows the basic problem with illegal immigration. Primarily that, due to the nature of illegal immigration, we cannot track who's comming over the border.

You see, this illegal was deported after a conviction of "indecency with a child". But he came back... And of course, who knew?

The whole nature of not securing the border means that almost anyone, criminal or not, can come walking across the border, and we have NO way of tracking them. Even if we were to legalize all the illegals that were here, we still can't detect and prevent the criminals from comming across the border.

Are illegal immigrant advocates going to say it was a good thing this illegal was able to come back??? He should have been allowed to come back???

There are essentially two key elements to illegal immigration which are the crux of the issue. The first is capacity, that is, we can only hold so many people before the quality of life begins to drop. In many areas we have already surpased this point, here in Southern California. The second is the issue illustrated here: We have no way of knowing who has come here.

The bottom line is that we cannot allow unfettered access for unidentified illegals into this country, as criminals will pour in and continue to rob, rape and murder our citizens. We need to identify each person who comes in. We cannot do this unless we completely seal the border. Because even if we were to somehow say "anybody who applies can come in", thoes who are known criminals will still sneak in the old fashion way, as they know they can't get in otherwise...
