In response to "I'm not explaining myself clearly. Ah well, thanks. -- nm" by Strongbad

Let me ask you something -- if you're a police chief...and you have a set # of officers and resources

do you spend those resources equally on getting rid of litterers and jaywalkers if there's a serious crime epidemic going on?

They are illegal actions....

probably not, given the limitations.

All Obama did was direct his DOJ to focus more on serious crimes than these.

He triage'd the immigration issue in terms of illegality.

Now, he wants a legislative fix so the next guy (Romney or Hillary or Jeb) can't just undo that in minutes with a new Executive Order; and becuase E.O's can't say that legal actions are now illegal...to go back on this, you'd need to get Congress to pass a new law.
