Immigration: "Messed-up system"

Here's one thing we can all agree on. Our immigration system is messed up. Check out this recent story.

I particularly enjoyed the opening line: "Following her second arrest and release from jail..."

Her SECOND arrest and release? What is this, a bass tournament? Why do we even bother? If we're going to enforce the laws, let's do it. But if not, let's drop the facade. What is ICE doing? Why do we even have such a toothless agency.

As I have said before on this blog (Ice Cream and Immigration), I am not against immigration. I might very well do the same things Jessica Colotl is doing. If she is smart and motivated, and came here to learn and work, we need more like her--immigrant or not. This post is a comment on out immigrations laws and enforcement, not on Colotl.
