To me, this is more an issue of supply and demand.

Cut off the demand and you solve the problem of the incessant supply of cheap labor pouring over the border.

HEAVILY fining buisnesses that hire illegal aliens I think would be the logical place to start.

And if you want radicalism, I also beleive that granting automatic citizenship to the children of illegal aliens should be stopped. It solves the problem and argument of seperating families if you enforce immigration law and it also serves as a disincentive to immediately breed once they cross the border, thus straining our schools and hospitals.

As for the Minutemen, despite the best efforts to weed out the crazies, I think someones going to end up getting hurt or killed here.
