Its really simple.
Illegal aliens in this country should ALL be rounded up and deported,no matter what country they are from.
If you have a student visa and have overstayed it,then you are an illegal also.
Next,the US born children of illegals should NOT br granted US citizenship,and they should be deported.
Women that come across just to have the baby should be immediately deported,within 24 hours of the baby being born.
Employers that hire illegals should face either prison time,or a fine of $1,000,000 per illegal they hire.
Contrary to our more liberal friends opinions,it IS a national security issue that the borders be locked.
If an illegal can sneak across to work,how hard would it be for a terrorist,or anyone else that wishes the US ill to sneak across?
According to the El Paso Times,we have already had Mexican troops cross the border and shoot at Border Patrol officers.
That is whats called an invasion.
Here is a link to several articles that document that actually happened...

So,we also know that in 1997 congress authorized Bill Clinton to send up to 10000 troops to help patrol the border,because even then it was a major problem.
The problem has only gotten worse.
In 2004 the house again authorized troops...

"The House approved a defense authorization bill that includes an amendment that would let American soldiers join U.S. Border Patrol agents in guarding the borders with Canada and Mexico.
The amendment, championed by Rep. Virgil Goode, R-Va., passed the House late Wednesday 231-191. It stands little chance of surviving because it was not part of the Senate's defense authorization bill.
The bill is exactly what Glenn Spencer wants to hear. He is president of the American Border Patrol, a Sierra Vista civilian group that films illegal immigration and documents the Border Patrol's response to reports of it.
"The will of the American people is beginning to express itself in the Congress," Spencer told the Tucson Citizen yesterday. "We have to stop this massive invasion of America."
Spencer said his group has 100,000 signed petitions in support of putting troops on the border, and he plans to turn them over to the federal government as a sign of support for the measure.
