"Send Me Your Wretched Refuse From Foreign Shores"

I wonder how many people give thought to what Emma Lazarus wrote regarding immigrants to America.
Wretched refuse! In other words, send us your garbage and we'll take care of them. There's a movement afoot to eliminate criminals from the US but, lo, their countries of origin don't want the 'wretched refuse' returned.

'Approximately 30 countries are refusing to accept the deportations of illegal immigrants who have committed serious crimes in the U.S., according to Texas Rep. Henry Cuellar. While these countries are refusing to accept the deportations of these criminals, the U.S. government is still issuing visas and student visas to citizens of those countries, according to the Texan congressman.'
