Accessory to the crime
I going to say it. Anyone who hires an illegal alien is guilty of aiding and abetting criminals. These employers are accessories to the crime of illegal immigration. If we really started punishing these employers, the number of illegal aliens would greatly decrease. Why is this so difficult?
My friend R.J. Godlewski writes a great article on illegal aliens, "Illegitimacy, Inc." He covers a lot of territory and you should go read it all, but here's a taste:
Once we decide that America’s borders aren’t worth defending, we decide that nothing is. Once we decide that certain laws aren’t worth upholding, then who decides where we stop? Once we decide that we’ll grant amnesty to some, who else will get a free pass too? Illegal immigration has become BIG business, one stocked full of ancillary vices such as prostitution, drug smuggling, and terrorism. The time has come to break up this monopoly for the “security of society”. (R.J. Godlewski read it all here)
Toni at Bear Creek Ledger took some of her friends to have a face-to-face with Lamar Alexander of Tennessee. What happened is a must read. See: Lamar [Alexander] Gets a Reality Check, here's a taste:
Today we took a drive to Cookeville for the Lamar Alexander meet and greet. I think Lamar and his staff got more than they bargained for! In their eyes it was to be a simple little pre-campaign stop. You know, glad hand a bit and preview Lamar’s new self aggrandizing video. [snip]Lamar can’t take having to answer questions to a large group of people who weren’t of his “sort”! Lamar really doesn’t want to get his hands dirty with the little people, you know, the constituents.
Go to Bear Creek Ledger and read it all.

Debbie I am with you 100%. Yes, any person that hires an illegal knowingly is aiding and abetting a criminal and should be dealt with.

What? You want to prosecute those who knowingly hire illegal aliens in violation of the law? You would put millions of poor, defenseless criminals armed only with guns and knives that are sucking America's welfare and legal and hospital systems dry out of their jobs?
How can you be so politically incorrect? I just don't understand it. You sound almost... I mean really, ... I don't know, this is a dangerous word, I hesitate to use it... You sound positively PATRIOTIC.
I wish those we've elected would do the same.
