It sounds like you are saying rounding up 10 (or whatever the number is) million illegals and deporting them is more doable than making school hallways safe by providing additional staffing or different security protocols. Maybe, but I am not sure that was what you meant. Is that what you are saying? I am not, for the record, trying to pick a fight or be coy. I just read your post and really wasn't sure what counterpoint you were making.
Nope, not what I said at all. For some, the fact that their attacker (we'll just use that term broadly in this example, covering anything from a DUI to the assault in OP) shouldn't even be in the country makes the crime more upsetting as it was preventable. I don't think anyone would argue the point that, compared to the rest of the industrialized world, the United States has a problem with crime. Thus, the argument would be that as we have plenty of criminals in the country legally we don't need to let more into the country illegally. Again, whatever your stance on illegal immigration this is a hard fact to dispute.
As for deporting millions of people, you'd never have to do that if you seriously started enforcing immigration law. Start aggressively prosecuting and levying huge fines against business that employ illegal immigrants. With no job and no money there would be no reason to be here.
