We need much much more of this:

ICE Arrests Previously Deported Criminal Alien On Fraud And Re-entry Charges | KTSM News Channel 9

Sosa-Contreras was originally deported in July 2001 after he served prison time for intoxicated manslaughter and theft following his May 1998 arrest by the El Paso Police Department.

Our revolving door makes it oh-so-easy to return after deportation. That's precisely why I am not impressed by Obama's deportation record the pro-illegals love to tout as progress. As long as our borders remain porous, deporting illegals will continue to be an exercise in futility. But, it certainly makes good press for the amnesty proponents.

I would love to know the statistics for rape, murder, pedophilia, and vehicular manslaughter/homicide committed by previously deported illegals. Of course, maintaining such data would be considered too costly, not to mention, "racist" by some.

Yes - and what is essential in closing that revolving door is to cut off the huge rewards they get for staying here.

Of course the border is easy to get over - where there is a will there's a way, and the reason they have so much will is once they make it over illegally there are almost no consequences but piles of benefits and money.

Of course the violent criminals just come back, they already know how easy it is to obtain fraudulent documentation and how little chance they have of ever being arrested and deported. Just look at this case, how many years it took for them to catch up with him, how much money has he raked up in that long time between arrests and deportations.

When they stop rewarding this behavior, we will see less of it.

Anybody know exactly where they take them back to when they deport them? If it's 5 feet over the border, of course they come back. I say, take them to the southernmost point of Mexico. What a laughing stock our government must be to these folks.

A laughingstock indeed. Many consider deportation a "free" vacation; of course, at U.S. taxpayers' expense. It gives them the chance to visit relatives, before returning. And, make no mistake, most return.

It's getting HARDER to cross the border; or NO illegal alien would be paying a coyote 5 thousand dollars to get across.

This is why we need to deport these people to another country... like Iraq.

Again as usual, you got it right. And yes we make it oh so easy for them, to keep on keeping on coming back for more.

The revolving door makes it very easy for them to come back for more, so easy for them to get fake documentation also.
As long as our borders remain as they now are, they will keep on coming, until the door is closed. I would like that to happen, but there is this thing called the real world.

I can take you to a place on the border where they simply walk across, unapprehended. The border patrol knows it and even sees them do it. They catch a few, but they don't have the manpower to catch them all. There is no trick to getting across. That it is being cracked down on is a joke.

Anyone who re-enters the United States after having been formally deported commits a felony punishable by up to 20 years in federal prison
That's merely a statement of law that is not enforced. Enforcement could discourage re-entry. How many times have articles appeared about illegals who were deported, re-entered the US and then arrested again and deported?? If government does not implement and exercise the laws of the US regarding illegals, it's easy for illegals to try, try, again. The US has a 3-strikes you're out for its citizens, how about two strikes and you're out for illegals who re-enter illegally and let them serve the 20 year penalty?
