That’s like saying, don’t arrest a fugitive (say he’s wanted for grand theft) when he applies for a hunting license because a hunting license is a license to hunt, not a license to commit grand theft. He’s standing right there. He’s wanted for a crime. Arrest him.

Better to control driving than to have a large % of people driving around without a license.

Why? What does having a license do?

Also, local police deporting illegals on sight doesn’t necessarily serve law enforcement purposes.

Local police wouldn’t deport them. ICE would. It’s a phone call, and it seems to me that would be easier than chasing them through the desert. ‘Course they wouldn’t show up at the DMV if that were the case.

If illegals know that they’ll be auto deported, they will avoid the police, thus hindering investigation into more severe, more violent crimes.[/quote]
What? How will avoiding going to the DMV hinder investigation into violent crimes?[/quote]
immediate deportation will make investigation and prosecution into any crime involving an undocumented person much less likely. rape one? she’ll have to balance whether reporting is worth the hassle of being deported. and the defendant wins! since she reports the rape, gets deported, there’s no witness to prove the case at trial! so, feel free to rape anyone without papers, you cannot be prosecuted, so long as the deportation is definite, and prompt, and they don’t retain the person for trial locked up. Of course, you coulddetain the witness for trial while the case is pending. So you have the rape guy string it out, delay trialf or years, while the victim waits ina cage for the trial. which is another factor that would tend to make victims not report.
also feel free to rape undocumented children, steal from undocumented adults.
