Didn't find this so sorry if it's a dupe. 55% in favor, 45% against at this point.

 

[fergie22]

thank you i voted yes early and often

 

[Von Mises]

39% Yes
61% No

See what happens when illegal aliens are allowed to vote.

 

[Sylvain]

I voted NO.
The police is already too busy without having to worry about immigration laws.

 

[Marc]

i voted yes for them to have some jurisdiction in that area so they dont have to wait on ins or any other fed agency but at the same time i understand its putting more on their plate for them to enforce but i would see as something they could take charge in if the situation presents itself.

WOW really, the police are to busy to enforce laws of the United States of America? Are you serious?

 

[indykid]

Is this real? There is a button to allow you to vote again!

 

[rjstew317]

bogus poll, it let me vote like six times. must of been set up by a "community organizer" to show that we want all our friendly southern neighbors here. i wonder, if we got 12 million people to break a law would the Goberment just ignore it?

Yeah youre right, pulling people over for going 42 in a 35 is much more important then stopping all these damn leeches from invading our country.

The poll is bogus. You can vote over and over and over........ if you want to.

I don't want LEOs to become INS 2.0, but I do agree with the poster(s) that wrote that they wished that LEOs didn't have to wait on the FEDs to get involved to resolve a situation.

I agree, it doesnt mean anything when someone can vote more than once.
No interest in that poll.

 

[Marc]

the ability to vote numerous times from 1 pc is to give the house that has 20 illegals in the house with 1 pc a chance to vote

The police cant just enforce those immigration law, that's the job of the INS, border patrol US customs.
I would like to know how you think the police could enforce immigration laws in our cities.
They just control every single person they see in the street and check if they are legal in the country?

You would gladdly show a valid US passport anytime that a LEO ask you to make sure that you are a US citizen?
You will show your ID 25 times a day just because LEOs now have the right to enforce immigration laws and check if you are not an illegal alien?
I dont think so, everybody gets upset everytime a LEO wants to see a valid LTCH.

It's not all-or-nothing. I don't want my local LEOs stopping everyone that they come into contact with and asking for proof of citizenship, but I do want them to have the power to act.

If my local LEOs come across a person that can't/won't identify themselves during an interaction (traffic accident, investigating a crime, etc.), and during the course of the investigation the LEO finds that the person is in the US illegally, then, yes, I want them to have the enforcement power to have the person detained and then deported. Now, the person is taken jail and then the wait for the FEDs to arrive begins.

YYYYEEEESSSS

 

[rambone]

Define "enforce." To some of you that means lining people up at checkpoints and checking my papers.

 

[IncendiaryGunner]

Give me your tired, your poor, your huddled mass...

Wait a moment... your not European...

Do you have papers?



Reforming our broken legal immigration system would be a good idea...
