U.S. immigration swoop targets criminal aliens

  • PHOENIX (Reuters) - U.S. immigration police have
    rounded up hundreds of criminal aliens in
    southern California, as part of one of their
    largest ever roundups of foreign lawbreakers and
    immigration violators, police said on Tuesday.
  • Immigration and Customs Enforcement spokeswoman
    Virginia Kice said the week-long sweep identified
    423 criminal aliens due for release from jails
    across five counties in the Los Angeles area, and
    took them into custody.
  • The operation also led to the arrest of 338
    undocumented immigrants in the area, more than
    150 of whom were classed as "immigration
    fugitives" -- foreign nationals who ignored final
    deportation orders.
  • "It is one of the largest crackdowns on criminal
    aliens ever carried out in the United States,"
    Kice told Reuters in a telephone interview.
  • Those arrested in the swoop have all either been
    removed from the United States already or face
    deportation.

This picture illustrates how illegal immigrants
are contributing to Americas economy.

A young man protests the loss of local jobs to
illegal immigration. Again, young children appeal
to our emotions and make us see how this boy is
effected by immigration policy.

This arrest picture makes us feel at once good
about border patrol safety and nervous about
illegal immigrants. By not showing this mans
face, he could be anyone. We dont see him as a
real person, but as just a person breaking the
law.

This photo shows how immigration is about
families trying to make a better life for
themselves and their children. We are more
likely to be sympathetic when children are in
the picture.
