Deportation can go faster. Here is how. Pass a law and make the announcement. Those that are caught and deported will be permanently disallowed to return or ever receive a visa or citizenship. When caught, we should get a record of fingerprints and DNA to make sure they will not be able to use an alias.

It would not cause all illegal aliens to self deport, but I would suspect it would cause about half to return home. The rest would be constantly be constantly looking over their shoulder. It would also encourage those remaining in the US to learn flawless English. That wouldn’t be all bad. And, by the way, they would be more careful to obey the law.

Also, it would be a good idea to pass a law making English the official language so that all official documents be in English. The Americans should not have to spend a fortune so that illegal aliens will feel at home here.

As I said, a reporter had the audacity to use the term illegal alien and she was quickly and firmly corrected, “undocumented migrant.”

I barely finished the prediction before it came true.

Now the questions, will anyone else dare cross that line and what awaits yet the woman who made the transgression this time? Will she simply get a warning or will she be pounding the pavement, looking for another position. I am sure she has at least received the warning, do that again and you will be a server in a little restaurant in a little town the rest of your life.

Occasionally, my wife would come to me with a problem. She didn’t like it so much when I would answer, “That’s a problem. I already have more than enough problems. What I need is solutions.”

Invariably, it is the way with most leaders, regardless military or civilian. I did get a kick out of a line in a TV show given to an actor portraying a US president. It was something to the affect, The problems I see are all very difficult. All the easier ones are resolved before they reach my desk.

I should have thought of it on my own but I didn’t. The concept is so simple. Yet I’d guess few of us think about it. We have no reason to.

Well, here’s another thought. I doubt you will find a leader complaining of too many solutions. Generally, if you will, the problem is too many problems. Moreover, they frequently come in bunches.

You just get confronted with one when you learn of two more. Worse, no one has brought any solutions.

So, consider you are a captain in the Marines. You have command of a rifle company, which is under heavy fire. You are in the midst of three critical decisions that must be made quickly. Then, you are confronted with another high priority problem. Someone refuses to use the proper pronoun for another member of the company.

I do admit that it is a little far fetched example. However, the way things are going, it is getting more probable by the month.

My point is, commanding officers already have an abundance of problems. Let’s not hand them even more. Trump has it right by not permitting the multi gender culture to creep into our military.

The most important thing is to keep the most important thing, the most important thing. In the Marines, that’s winning wars very quickly and with minimal casualties. Pronouns don’t even register on that importance indicator. Not even a little.

it’s not law, but it’s the next thing to it. Obviously, the broadcasters that use anything but the the term migrant for the illegal aliens will get a severe wrist slap.

My guess is that no one pulled the term out of thin air. I am sure they tested dozens of terms before study groups. I am just as sure they were not looking for an accurate word to describe them.

Personally, I will stay with illegal alien. By far, it is the most accurate. They are aliens by definition and they arrived here illegally.

Incidentally, if we Americans were to go into another country illegally, they would use their term for illegal alien to refer to us and I’d not blame them.

They did not migrate here. When they took that step across the border, they intentionally broke the law. That makes it illegal, regardless of anything else.

So, maybe we should call them illegal foreigners? At the very least, illegal migraters.

On Martin Luther King day I watched a show that looked at the the assassination of MLK. I have made remarks about the assassination before. I felt quite alone until this special.

Thing is, two seconds after they had a guilty plea they stopped the investigation. Likely, they even stopped looking before the plea. They didn’t even take the five minutes to test the rifle. I suspect, let me rephrase that. I highly suggest that they didn’t want to face the possibility they were wrong. They had their suspect and they had no desire to uncover any fact that might contradict it.

Now, according to the special, there are others suspicious they got it wrong, including a highly respected judge very familiar with the case. Indeed, it seemed to be moving towards a retrial when Ray died.

So, the truth of the matter is, the real killer might be walking the streets today. As near as I can figure, the chances are about fifty percent that he is. He might even have been drawing a government check at the time. I don’t know. A five minute test might have saved a lot of doubt. Worse, he might have killed others.

On the other hand, the test might have added some confusion. Perhaps that’s why they didn’t test it.

Regardless, it is time to make it illegal to use the death penalty as a threat. As far as I am concerned, it makes it so they have a fifty percent chance of being one hundred percent wrong. When a life sentence is involved, that is not good enough.

Moreover, it encourages the prosecution to be lazy. Even more, I hate to say it, but it might even be a good argument against the death penalty. You take the threat of the death penalty away, and the prosecution will have to work harder and it will cost the state much more.

However, isn’t that the way it’s supposed to work? Aren’t we supposed to prove guilt beyond a reasonable doubt instead of hold a figurative gun to their heads.
