The undocumented problem in this country is entirely a function of restrictive immigration policies that offer few legal avenues to
willing American employers to hire willing low-skilled immigrants. But instead of fixing the law, hard-line restrictionists have been demanding a crackdown against the “law breakers” for violating the “rule of law.” But a country of laws, above all, expects its government to behave lawfully.
The Trump administration, however, is acting increasingly lawlessly in its quest to purge the country of undocumented immigrants. It is not only going after not only these folks but also any legal immigrants and citizens who support their cause. In other words, it is trashing the First Amendment and flouting the constraints on its power imposed by the Bill of Rights. This is the very essence of tyranny, notes Reason Foundation Senior Analyst Shikha Dalmia.
