Colorado's Gov. Ritter Looking at Signing Bill Against Illegal Absconders
There's another side to this: If ICE deports these pukes then they're not supposed to re-enter this country, that's a felony. So, if the laws were being enforced then this law wouldn't be necessary. However, as we know, some gate-crashers don't have much regard for the law.
DENVER --
A bill aimed at preventing illegal immigrants from avoiding prosecution by being deported is now on the desk of Gov. Bill Ritter.
Currently, illegal immigrants arrested for a crime who post bond to get out of jail can end up in immigration court, where they can be deported.
Judges sometimes drop charges against them but the measure passed by state lawmakers (House Bill 1040) would require that they be arrested if they return to the
If the bill is signed into law, judges would issue a no-bond warrant for suspected felons who are deported. The warrants would go into state and national crime databases and they would be arrested and required to remain in jail without bond until they can go on trial.

"Latinos in this country may be hauled to jail or may be treated differently because they are not walking around with their citizenship stamped on their forehead," said Rep. Dorothy Butcher, D-Pueblo, who voted against the bill.
Why is it that some want to portray every effort aimed at illegals as racist? Are illegal aliens a race? Every person entering any jail in this country should have their immigration status checked. What's radical, racist or extremist about that? Every person arrested is having their "wants or warrants" checked, at least, they should.
Oh, just thought I'd throw this in, it is a Fox site so one would expect it to lean to the right but this poll and results is typical of such polls I see around the country.
