The problem with deporta-

illegal immigrants may not be

the logistical problem of mov-
ing them to other countries.
Illegal immigrants, however,
must be deported until Euro-
peans nations have the proper
facilities to deal with the mas-
sive waves of people. With this,
these countries will be safer
and better able to deal with any
issues arising from both locals
and legal immigrants.
