So then why jail ANY criminal who has children, no matter the crime? Why not just fine them all. For one it's a very unequal application of the law, for another deportation is NOT punishment.
Well, deportation is a punishment especially if your children are American citizens.
Why not all crime just a fine? You are kidding me right? Well, for one reason because crimes like murder and rape (and a whole host of others) are too horrendous and serious to be punished by a fine only.
