The Feds have done quite a bit of policing over the last two hundred years, whether it is constitutional or not.
In the matter of immigration law, the government has chosen not to enforce.
For example, the executive employee at ICE coming out on record that ICE won't process illegal aliens Arizona detains.
After I heard that, I made it clear to my elected representatives that if a government employee refuses to do his job, it is insubordination and that person needs to be fired.
I also made it clear that that if elected officials had no interest in seeing to it that government employees do the job they were hired to do, there was no real reason for those officials to continue with federal employment as well.
They can't keep the lid on the immigration issue much longer, and however it is resolved it's my belief that there will be quite a few formerly secure politicians unhorsed over the couple of elections over the issue.
