ANOTHER VIEW How many illegal aliens is enough?

he illegal immigrants, by whatever name or label they’re called, keep on coming. Gov. Andrew T Cuomo of New York scoffed that “America was never all that great.” He took it back only after he was inundated by several days of outrage and by the thou- sands who arrive every day having argued with him with their sore feet. Lonely singles and entire families make the grueling journey from the miserable lands they leave behind. It was ever thus. According to the Department of Homeland Security, 9,258 illegal-immigrant families were detained by U.S. agents along the southwest U.S.- Mexican border in July, down a trifle from the 9,434 detained in June and 9,485 detained in May. But those are mere guesses, some more educated than others. No one knows for sure what the accurate number would be. The arrest tallies raise a serious ques- tion that needs not only to be asked, but to be answered. Public policy on immigration, legal and otherwise, must be based facts, not guesses. The figure most often cited and widely accepted is that there are 11 million or a little more illegal aliens now residing in the 50 states. The 11 million or slightly more figure was arrived at through analysis by demographers at the Pew Research Center, extrapolating from estimates of two U.S. Census Trump and the gotcha crowd Bureau surveys, the Current Population Survey and the American Community Survey. Both surveys ask respondents where they were born iven his braggadocio, his wrongdoing after the election, not and whether they’re citizens but not whether they’re twisted tweets and more, the least of it being possibly felo- here legally.

It’s going to be fast…We practice that up-tempo. Guys are in shape because of the way we practice. We are very successful if we get it going in six to eight seconds. But it can better.” Not being satisfied is what has led the Tigers to this point, finally receiving some more attention from Power 5 colleges and out- side media outlets. The Tigers won’t be completely satisfied though until that state title trophy is back to Lake City. But after beating top-ranked IMG Academy, they should be considered a top-tier team. There’s no reason why they shouldn’t be ranked somewhere in the state’s top-10 teams overall, and shouldn’t be any lower than third in Class 7A. It’s not everyday that a unranked public school embarrasses one of the nation’s premier programs. I encourage all voters to give credit where credit is due. Enough is enough.
