    Why?! Why is immigration enforcement being stifled so much? Imagine if there was a police database that could help find murderers

    It could be because immigrants are not as bad as murderers.

      That’s completely irrelevant. If you can identify someone as being in the country illegally it makes no sense to not be allowed to act on it.

        This isn’t a good argument.

        If law enforcement had access to all of your social media, e-mails and live video feeds from inside your house then they would be able to catch criminals more effectively.

        We have laws specifically limiting police powers because we recognize that there are more things to consider than simply maximizing arrests.

        Protection against unreasonable search is written into the constitution, after all

          This isn’t the same because law enforcement don’t have access to all of your social media already. This is more like if they did but were only allowed to arrest you for you posting a video of you murdering someone, but not for you posting a video of you raping someone.

          Protection against unreasonable search is written into the constitution, after all

          Your car registration being checked to see who it is registered to and if you have any outstanding warrants etc is not an “unreasonable search”.

        You need to shut up. You’re spreading ignorance and blatantly ignoring the situation.
