What was that about "Homeland Defense"?

"Illegal immigrants allowed at least five strikes"
"Border-crossings guidelines revealed amid probe into U.S. attorney firings"
per the Houston Chronicle


"Documents released in the controversy about eight fired U.S. attorneys show that federal prosecutors in Texas generally have declined to bring criminal charges against illegal immigrants caught crossing the border — until at least their sixth arrest.
A heavily redacted Department of Justice memo from late 2005 disclosed the prosecution guidelines for immigration offenses, numbers the federal government tries to keep classified. DOJ officials would not say Thursday whether it has adjusted the number since the memo was written, citing "law enforcement reasons."

I don't know what to say. I'm speechless.......
