Brown is doing a kick ass job.

I guess I don't understand why it's a problem to turn over minor alien criminals to the Fed for immigration enforcement, should the Feds be interested in undertaking deportation proceedings. Am I missing something?

While I don't agree with hassling Hispanics in any way (like Arpaio in AZ, for example), I don't understand why, when an illegal alien interacts with the criminal justice system and has his illegal immigration status confirmed, his case shouldn't be adjudicated.
