I think most people whether right or left of in-between realize that hundreds of thousands of immigrants that came to the USA at the turn of the century had to check in, have a purpose in their immigration and state where they were going to live and who would be responsible for them. They didn't wade across the Rio Grande and then declare themselves citizens.
Another argument is the millions of Chinese, Koreans, Philippinos, etc. that have immigrated here. How many of them has ICE rounded up? How were they able to immigrate legally but the Latinos can't do it legally? Planeloads of Chinese fly into LAX and are processed right through.
I don't care if a trillion people migrate here, but I don't want my hard-earned tax $'s going to pay for their education, housing, food, clothing, health care, etc. My wife and I spend $800 a month on groceries. I would love to obtain a free $750/mo. EBT card!
