Huffington Post reporter Ryan Grim is among the journos who are P.O.’d that illegal immigrant Jose Antonio Vargas was taken into U.S. Border Patrol custody after attempting to go through airport security without the required ID. If you ask Grim, the Border Patrol is just wasting its time:

Grim thinks those applauding the enforcement of our laws need to engage in some personal “reflection”:
The number of people celebrating @joseiswriting's detention is appalling. You folks need to do some reflection about what you value in life

You first, Ryan.
