Head of ICE admits that immigration law is only selectively enforcedWhy aren't the FedGovs taking heat over this
one?
Here is exactly why the Federal immigration law is such
a
mess.
Morton said his agency will not necessarily process illegal immigrants referred to them by Arizona officials. The best way to reduce illegal immigration is through a comprehensive federal approach, not a patchwork of state laws, he said. Think about that. A Federal official says that his agency will only selectively enforce the Federal law. Now I will say that both the Arizona law and the Federal law are flawed and should be repealed. But the Federal law is incredibly harsh and only selectively enforced. That's been true for decades. Meanwhile the law makes employers into the unpaid spies and first enforcers of the immigration laws. Imagine if other Federal laws were only selectively enforced. Like the income tax. Or the War on Drugs. Or that blasted seatbelt law. Or health insurance reform. You know what I think. A law should be uniformly applied or it should be automatically repealed. But ask yourself why the immigration laws are only enforced when the politicos need to get elected.
