Thread: US Immigration Officers Arrest 2,059 Criminals in Sweep

WASHINGTON—
U.S. immigration officers arrested 2,059 convicted criminal aliens in a five-day operation, the Department of Homeland Security said on Monday.

Those arrested are subject to being removed from the United States, and more than 1,000 have multiple criminal convictions, the department said in a statement.

The sweep, called "Cross Check," started March 1 and ended March 5. It was the sixth such operation since May 2011, the statement said.

More than 1,000 of those arrested were convicted of felonies, including voluntary manslaughter, child pornography, robbery, kidnapping and rape.

Those arrested include 58 known gang members or affiliates and 89 convicted sex offenders. Most of the misdemeanor convictions were for driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs, the statement said.

The detained foreign nationals who do not face U.S. prosecution will be processed for deportation, it said, without giving a breakdown of the nationalities of those arrested.

For the sake of children elsewhere in the World, neuter the child porn and rapists before deporting them. My neutered dog is fat, happy and doesn't bother to run out the gate, these scum can tolerate what he did.

Deporting persons convicted of child porn/rape etc. seriously does pose an interesting moral problem; by doing so they are almost certain to cause harm to some child or woman in another country (usually Mexico), and our legal system does not have the balls to neuter them permanently.
