Oh, and let me fix that for you.  Like it or not, there IS a difference between legal and illegal immigrants.  [/quote]

Just like there are legal motorists and illegal motorists. When someone exceeds the posted speed limit, we take away their kids. #Justice [/quote]

You have zero sense of proportionality.  And that's probably the least of your issues.

You're going to have to explain it better than that. If immigrants are not inherently good or bad, then immigrating without proper paperwork is just a regulatory crime. (I think Trump supporters call these "process crimes.") The seriousness of that offense depends on how well designed the regulations are. Our immigration system is not well designed. For starters, we haven't funded it well enough to make it sufficiently efficient.

If someone speeds, I know that they're more likely to hurt someone than someone who doesn't speed. I don't know that an immigrant here without the proper paperwork is any more likely to cause me harm than an immigrant with all the signatures and stamps in order. [/quote]

I honestly can't believe I'm wasting time replying to such a dolt, but here goes.  Illegal immigrants aren't simply hopping into the US for a day trip.  They're not coming here to go shopping and then return to their home country later that day.  They come here with the full expectation of LIVING here, with everything that entails - free healthcare, free education, under-the-table cash jobs, etc.  If you actually think that "immigrating without proper paperwork" is simply a "regulatory crime," then you're clearly ignorant of the types of neighborhoods that have been described for you on this very thread - those in which illegal immigrants have crowded into SFHs and schools, bringing down home values.

I'm curious:  why are you so insistent that we allow illegal immigrants in?  Why are you arguing for open borders?  You do know we accept plenty of LEGAL immigrants, right?  So your bizarre comparison to Japan is way off-base.  [/quote]

It's not enough

The US needs an underclass to do menial jobs and to support SS.  The alternative is for the more educated to have more kids but like Japan that isn't happening.[/quote]
