But are all of those rounded up really dangerous criminals?
A woman here in my city was just sent back to Mexico. The story was all over the news last weekend. I saw it on CNN and MSNBC. She had committed no crime. She was married to an American citizen and has a baby who was born here. Her 'crime'? She was accused of lying about her country of origin when she crossed the border 8 years ago on returning from a visit to Mexico. (She has lived in the US since she was a child.) She claimed it wasn't her but someone with the same name. She hadn't even been to Mexico that year. But because of this mistaken identity, when she applied for citizenship, she was deported.
So they are not just rounding up and deporting dangerous criminals.
