They will probably recieve a hearing in Memphis, and be expected to show up on their own accord.

So healthcare for illegal immigrants bad... keeping them in prison (where they get healthcare) good??

Why don't we deport him and all the other illegals in prison. That should free up some of the state budget.

If they're deported, they'd just find their way back state-side. But, the possession of marijuana shouldn't be a criminal offense.
By:
mr.right on 9/8/09
but it is a criminal offense no matter how much you disagree. so until its legal citizens and ILLEGALS will still catch charges for possessing it.

Gee, and I thought those trespassers just took the jobs Americans wouldn't do. If the illegals were all deported that would sure help the economy and lower the unemployment rate. Oh, I forgot, people like Prince Harry, Princess Nancy, King Barack, and of course some of the court jesters like Boxer, Feinstien, Franken, Biden, and Dodd think our Constitution gives them rights too.

Well, there are some that think marijuana shouldn't be illegal...what about 561 pounds?? that is what they had! and yes, after they receive parole, ICE will come and pick them up and deport them. I am sure that when they are deported, they will find their way back here and do something else. They are breaking the law by coming here in the first place... what makes anyone think that they would not keep breaking the law to make their 'honest' living and to support their illegal family?
By:
Farmall on 9/9/09
Oh, we will be supporting their illegal family while they spend half of 12 years in in one of the states holiday camps.

Actually Dave42, there have been several articles lately on how immigration, legal and illegal is down significantly thanks to the floundering economy. Pretty bad when the worlds poorest won't come to the U.S. because things are so bad here. Maybe that was Bush's plan all along. Tank the economy to reduce illegal immigration.

Get over yourself...
The people from south of the border are coming here for JOBS. Those same JOBS could be filled by Americans who refuse to leave the welfare roles and find employment.
When we put some true restrictions on the qualifications of receiving governmental assistance, I will be the first in line in support.
