When it comes to this question, I like to turn practical. You have a father of 2 kids......kids attend school, wife takes care of a home.....father works a decent job so he can afford schooling for his kids. Neither he nor his wife gets in trouble.....they are as apple-pie-middle-America as you can get. Then you find out he's here illegally.
What practical reason would there be for deporting him? What benefit to society would come from that? Yes, i know there are philosophical reasons.....HE BROKE THE LAW!....*rabble* *rabble* *rabble*.....but come on. Dealing with illegals on a case-by-case bases just seems to make sense. Deport the shitty ones, keep the ones that contribute, and give them a path to citizenship. If that's a "backdoor to amnesty"...so be it.
