In the world of real estate, we have offers and counter-offers. In keeping with that spirit, I have the following counter-proposal. I propose that since the State of Virginia knows who their illegal aliens are and apparently where they are, that they contact Immigration & Naturalization Services and inform them that they have illegal aliens. Further, they should request that they be rounded up and escorted back to their border of origin. It would seem that this strategy would demonstrate a State comprised of law abiding Americans that are interested in doing the right thing.
Complicating this common sense approach by introducing a bill, debating its merits, passing it in the legislature and sending it off to the Governor for his veto (yes, Virginia, your Governor is opposed to this - he has no problem with illegal aliens attending State Colleges funded by your tax dollars) is pure folly. It may raise the notoriety quotient for some State Legislators, but is that necessary? Is that what the constituency is paying for? Keep it simple:
