Being an immigrant from other country and other state, I found Erin's post very interesting and something that we all should consider regarding immigrants who committed crimes.
So, for me, getting my citizenship on the day of President Obama's inauguration day made one of big marks in my life. I finally became an American! woo! But that's not the point. There are so many illegal immigrants everywhere in United States and especially in Texas, I found it more problematic than any other states, due to the close borderline with Mexico.
It is already big problematic with this kind of immigrants with their "short stay" in Texas but Erin's blog points out that not only we have problem with illegally staying immigrants but with illegal immigrants who committed pretty violent criminals. I definitely agree with crumbling system of our judicial system and how problematic it is for our government.
If we are giving illegal immigrants with criminal loopholes to get away with it and deport them, and allow "bail bondsmen who help these immigrant's receive their reimbursement," I wonder, it would be possible that major gangs would just hire those immigrants, make them commit in crime and all we have to do is deport them? I know it's such a dramatic statement, but you know, it is just ridiculous to let those criminals go and how we actually MADE this loophole FOR them.
But as jen commented above, I think the problem is we, Texans, would have to spend more money to solve this problematic issue. But what needs to happen is that even after being deported, they need to be punished in their own countries at the same level as we punish our criminals.
Overall, Erin's post made me think that this whole issue with "illegal immigrants" is bigger than what it seems to be. Much much bigger. Sometime soon, President Obama would come up with plan, after solving health care issue.. eeeek? :p
