Do environmentalists care about destruction of Arizona's federal lands?
Litter. Abandoned cars. Human waste. Rape trees to terrorize women. Homeland Security blocking these videos?

Amnesty didn't solve the problem in the 80s and 90s, so let's do it again
An INS report issued in 2000 (link no longer available--I wonder why) revealed that "Amnesties clearly do not solve the problem of illegal immigration. About 2.7 million people received lawful permanent residence ("green cards") in the late 1980s and early 1990s as a result of the amnesties contained in the Immigration Reform and Control Act (IRCA) of 1986. But these new INS figures show that by the beginning of 1997 those former illegal aliens had been entirely replaced by new illegal aliens, and that the unauthorized population again stood at more than 5 million, just as before the amnesty. . . Figures in the report itself show that illegal immigration surged more dramatically from countries other than Mexico."
