If you don't enforce a law aren't you breaking the law?

I am just astounded that no one seems to realize that since they're not US CITIZENS--they do NOT have the same constitutional right we do.
Immigration is considered a matter of national security and foreign policy, the Supreme Court has long held that immigration law is largely immune from judicial review. Congress can make rules for immigrants that would be unacceptable if applied to citizens.
The problem is that the left is demanding that these non-citizens need to be treated AS citizens and allowing THEM TO SUE over being denied 'RIGHTS' they never had in the first place!

Yeah, while you're at it sue all the business owners that hire them and the landlords that rent to them. Oh wait, isn't something like that going on right now. Yeah, that's right, and the Mexicans are suing that city too.
We can't touch the illegals civil rights now can we.
(And no I'm not racist. My family came from Mexico legally)
It's obvious that President Bush supports an open border policy. Why not make a way for them to be here legally but be subject to taxes and etc. Why not make a way to allow those who don't have convictions to work here? Why sentence our border patrol agents to 10 years in prison for doing their job? It's all insane.

The doctrine of sovereign immunity states that the government cannot be sued unless it consents to be sued. Thus, unless there is a provision in our immigration laws that allow citizens to sue, you cannot sue.
