Increased incarceration rates are one of many factors that have
lowered the crime rate. It's not even the principal one.

Name the other factors.

C'mon Greg. That's perfectly clear. I wouldn't dare ask you, or
anyone else, for the answer to the illegal alien problem because its
so complicated, , but I will ask you this:

Do you think BAR's suggestion (now said four times here) that anyone
crossing our borders illegally should be summarily killed?

That only requires a simple yes or no.

I believe I answered the question earlier. Bert is wrong about this but at
least he has the guts to offer a solution. I don't believe securing our
borders is particularily complicated. It's a matter of political will.

My question to John remains. He seems to imply that an illegal should have
a chance to prove himself. I think not.
