As a Democrat, I am far from a Trump supporter. As GOP candidates go, I would have preferred Bush, Paul, Kasich, even Rubio.

Immigration reform? Absolutely. Amnesty and a path to legal residency and eventual citizenship for those who are otherwise law abiding contributors to our society? Sure. 

Still, there is no logical reason why Oregon or any state should want to harbor convicted criminals. Treating immigrants like everyone else makes sense up to the point where their "only violation of law" is no longer simply being present in our country. Once convicted, especially of violent crimes, they should be deported.
