Op-Ed: Mass deportation is no longer optional
Opinion by Brian Lonergan | Immigration Reform Law Institute • 13h
As America’s problems with illegal immigration have dramatically worsened over the last four years, there are increasing calls for a mass deportation program as a needed remedy. Despite heavy criticism from the same people who have either caused or defended our current status quo, mass deportation is exactly what our current predicament requires.
If mass deportation sounds like an extreme measure, it is necessary because we are facing an extreme and unprecedented crisis. Thanks to the Biden administration’s surrender of our southern border and refusal to enforce our immigration laws, more than 10 million people have illegally entered the country since 2021. Since that time, we have seen our cities overwhelmed, treasuries pillaged and innocent people killed by those who should never have been allowed to be here. The usual blue-ribbon studies and long-winded Senate debates on the topic won’t do. Something actually needs to be done, and done on a scale to match the problem.
One can already hear the pushback from the anti-borders lobby, which includes activists, immigration lawyers, sanctuary mayors and radical members of Congress. They will describe frightening scenarios of jack-booted federal immigration agents ripping migrant children from their mothers and loading them on to cattle cars headed for Mexico. In addition to being patently absurd, this is more self-serving hysteria meant to distract people from the depth of the problem.
