> U.S. government mostly doesn't enforce its laws against unlawful entry

If you ever get arrested for anything, get background checked for anything, get reported by somebody to the police, need to deal with legal matter, need health insurance, or if one day somebody at ICE missed his morning coffee......

Life as a fugitive is not fun. Even if currently the law is not strictly enforced.

The traffic stops are how most get caught. I was in jail with hundreds of no-paper immigrants. Almost always they would get caught in some random traffic stop and then have a hard time from there.
