Martha's Vineyard Immigration Policy

I have discovered an immigration policy that I like.  Martha's Vineyard recently had an influx of 'undocumented' immigrants.  Within 48 hours, those immigrants were deported from the island.  Yes!  There we go.  The self-proclaimed sanctuary had a different view once those asylum seekers landed on their tony shores.  Much like windfarms, the wealthy elite are heartily in favor, as long as it doesn't ruin their picturesque views or property values.  When it was the border states absorbing the floods of migrants, it was immoral to oppose the migrants.  No human is illegal!  That formulation changes a bit when they are expected to carry their "fair share" of immigrants.  Apparently, 50 was too many.  In any case, all jurisdictions should have the same deportation authority as Martha's Vineyard.
