Because all other parties both want more immigration and two do their best to ignore the crime statistics by the immigrants. There is also the high percentage of immigrants who require public assistance coupled with a reluctance to assimil

You know that might work a little if, and only when people follow through. Unless trained as spies, and even they fail on occasion, people will lapse. As a feel good option, yeah, go for it. In reality I don’t think it does much. They h

This is definitely a good step, however, ALPRs are not going away unfortunately. They have and are and will keep getting deployed by private businesses. They are too valuable for them at this time. The likes of Wal-Mart, etc., will poten
