Election year or not, government officials and the pols are scared to death about enforcing the Patriot Act for fear of being "politically incorrect".
It's about time that ALL illegal aliens are rounded up, documented, deported, jailed or otherwise confined.
Those here legally, must be documented and must be able to be traced while here and register when they leave.
As long as we continue to pussy-foot around, it is overwhelming for local or regional enforcement officials to be able to detect or route out 'evil-doers'.
If normal American citizens are 'trackable' ten ways to Christmas by all the 'registrations' in place.......visitors from anywhere else should damn well be documented fully!!!
