« New To Me | Main | Wanted: Friendly Blogger » August 23, 2006The Mounting Toll of Illegal ImmigrationA man thought to be an illegal immigrant from somewhere south of Texas stands accused of killing a Nashville woman. A few quick points: 1. If the federal government was doing its border-control job properly, illegal immigrants' homicide victims wouldn't be dead because their killers wouldn't be here to kill them. 2. If the federal government isn't doing its border-control job properly, then at least the legal residents of state of Tennessee ought to have a state government that isn't making Tennessee a magnet for criminals by giving them drivers licenses and other services. 3. Tennessee doesn't have such a government right now. 4. Tennessee's governor only pays lip service to the issue. 5. Perhaps it should be made illegal in Tennessee to rent one's property to an illegal immigrant. Posted in Immigration

The states must challenge the federal government on legal issues that apparently prohibit states from taking action on the immigration enforcement. Arizona has taken the lead. Posted by: Donna Locke at August 23, 2006 3:01 PMPost a comment
