NO DODO! But You don't seem to want to understand that being caught on U.S. Soil illegaly is being caught in the act of commiting a crime and therfore by nature gives the arresting officer probable cause to place the person under arrest. No way around it Chewbacca that's the facts plain and simple. You CAN NOT be caught on Canadian soil in the act of being an illegal alien in the U.S.A. You can not be caught on U.S. soil in the act of being an illegal Alien to the UK.
As for you sitting there innocent of any crime unitl proven guilty. guess what so are the people sitting in jail until they are convicted in a trial by either a jury of their peers or a judge if they so elect to waive their right to a jury trial.
Guess what else the police can arrest anybody they want to for what ever reason they want too. But the fact is to do so would be stupid and would leave the officer open for proscution and law suits.
