Obama Admininstration released criminal iIlegal aliens who then went on to kill

http://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2012/jul/31/illegals-released-feds-19-murders-142-sex-crimes/

19 people lost their lives and 142 people got violated because of the actions of the Obama administration.

The Obama administration could have prevented these senseless crimes by enforcing our immigration laws, said committee Chairman Lamar Smith, Texas Republican. But President Obama continues to further his anti-enforcement agenda while innocent Americans suffer the consequences. His unwillingness to enforce immigration laws puts our communities at risk and costs American lives.

Relevant from the article you posted:

U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement, the agency responsible for deportations, said many of those identified by Secure Communities and detailed in the report either werent eligible to be deported or were released by local officials before ICE could respond.

Spokeswoman Barbara Gonzalez said that given limited resources, they have to pick and choose which aliens they go after.

Because ICE is congressionally funded to remove a limited number of individuals each year, the agency prioritizes our enforcement efforts on individuals whose removal has the biggest impact on public safety, including immigrants convicted of crimes, violent criminals, felons, and repeat immigration law offenders, she said.

The Obama administration has set records for deportations, removing about 400,000 aliens a year. But it has dramatically altered the composition of those being deported, shifting attention away from rank-and-file illegal immigrants and toward those who already have criminal records or who have repeatedly broken immigration laws.

Cherry picking articles that condemn Obama. I'm not surprised. This isn't unique to this president. All presidents and leaders do things like this. jimkabrhel

Are you trying to rationalize an extremely obvious wrong? Any president that does/did this should be called out on it. Just because it's not unique to the Obama administration does not make it less wrong.

It's great news that his administration is making strides, that doesn't change the 19 people killed or 142 people violated, however.

They've taken steps to prevent problems like this, which is great, but it won't change history. And what makes you think this was "largely beyond their control"? The fact of the matter is, tougher Republican style immigration laws would have helped tremendously.

You act like the Obama administration personally made this decision.

"weren't eligible to be deported" -- who says who gets deported or not? the federal govt. They should make stricter laws on this issue.

"released by local officials" -- fair point, but that still doesn't mean that they shouldn't have created stricter laws.

Can I ask if you are an American?

So what do you propose? Increase funding to the relevant agencies so they have sufficient manpower and resources to deport them all?

Unlike legal immigrants, illegal immigrants often do not have education and don't speak English, the language this nation was founded one. It's much harder for them to integrate than a legal immigrant because of things like this.

Immigration is good in many cases, but you still want to preserve the idea of the nation-state. kingkong0124

That goes very much against the idea of a democracy. I dont understand how anyone would think its a good idea to have a nation-state.

I never said the Obama adminstration is the only one. I just thought that this is an important story to post about. I didn't place the blame on Obama himself, rather the "Obama administration".

The root cause of the illegal alien problem is Obama not enforcing stricter immigration laws. In this specific case, Obama's administration specifically released these criminals.

I didn't say it was. I said it goes against the idea.

If a democracy is supposed to allow all of its citizens equal say, then a nation-state by definition is "ethnically pure" and others not of that ethnicity would have less say.

How in the hell do you think this is a good idea?

The root cause of the illegal alien problem is Obama not enforcing stricter immigration laws.
