Writer offers solution to illegal immigration

Cynthia Kendoll’s June 9 guest opinion was extremely accurate and complete. She obviously has a clear understanding of the out-of-control illegal immigration problem in Oregon.

The blame must be put on the lack of enforcement by President Obama and Gov. Kate Brown and the law enforcement department. Too many Oregonians have been victimized by illegal immigrants and the blame rests entirely upon those who are supposed to be protecting us, which is their responsibility!

It is incredible that the authorities release incarcerated illegal immigrants back into our communities where they will be free, once again, to victimize our fellow law-abiding citizens. Illegal immigrants should be deported and, if they return, they should be re-incarcerated for a minimum of five years.

Is this a matter of incompetence, irresponsibility or just plain stupidity?

It is up to “we the people” to vote them out of office and replace them with responsible leaders. The November elections cannot come too soon to install leaders who will do their jobs.

It is amazing that a citizen like Cynthia Kendoll could intelligently and easily solve the problem that our current leaders either cannot or will not do.
