"We're not going to deputize a whole bunch……" — Barack Obama

We're not going to deputize a whole bunch of American citizens to… - Barack Obama

"We're not going to deputize a whole bunch of American citizens to start grabbing people or turning them in, in part because the ordinary American citizen may not know whether or not this person is illegal or not. But, you know, the notion that we're going to criminalize priests, for example, or doctors who are providing services to individuals, and throw them in jail for doing what their calling asks them to do, which is to provide help and service to people in need, I think that is a mistake. I think that's out of America's character."

— Barack Obama
