Illegal Aliens

It is amazing that we do not keep records on illegals who commit crimes (sanctuary). If we did start making an effort to track and punish these felons we would reduce violent crime many times over. Now if you figure just 10% of illegals are criminals, and there are 11 million here, we can get rid of 1.1 million criminals just by enforcing our current laws. Then we have to have a strict border to keeep them out. Now that's what I want to discuss, the border security.
First of all we should mine the entire border with non-lethal mines. There are gas mines, small explosive mines that put salt in your skin etc. Then as we capture illegals we can make them build the wall for their sentence. With in a year there will be no longer any border crossings to speak of. Next you must arrest all employers who hire illegals, knowingly, to also go build the wall, this will reduce the tempting for them to hire cheap labor. Wall is built incentives to come here are greatly reduced. Now we deal with persons here. If you are stopped by any officer of the law and you can not prove you are a legal resident, you are immediate arrested and taken to a holding area. From here you have 30 days to prove that you are a citizen. At the end of the 30 days you are sent to the southern border to build the wall for 2 years. At the end of that 2 years you can apply for citizenship. Sounds tough but I think it is necessary to protect our citizens.
