Popular Post spidermike007 Posted December 10, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted December 10, 2022 Just think about how much safer the nation is, after these heroic crackdowns. Those overstayers were a definite threat to national security. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All laws are consistently in effect. Trouble is many of them require effort to enforce. There is the stumbling block 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HuskerDo2 Posted December 11, 2022 Share Posted December 11, 2022 Such a backwards police force or should I say farce. Why would you end such a thing? It was having great results. It should run 365 day a year. I've decided to put a foam pad on my wall so that when I read stories like this and start to bang my head against the wall there will be less injury and zero chance of a concusson.

I agree they are backward. Why don't the police have an app on their smartphone that can interrogate the immigration database? Using either face recognition or fingerprint recognition, then they could check any foreigner even if they had no passport available? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
