Just because someone from South America has easier access to the U.S. (i.e. can make a run accross the border) does not make them any more deserving of U.S. rights and benefits than countless people who are trying to do it the legal way.

You misunderstood the United States, and if you don't care about children growing up without their families, no matter who they are, you are heartless.

Then open up your own thread about how unsympathetic you are to them, and work on your reading comprehension while you're at it.
This one is about the American children of immigrants, who obviously had no say in their parents' decision to immigrate.

It's a valid and current term.
Oh please, having a child in US soil doesn't grant anybody the right to stay here legally anymore for a long long time.

You can call me a horrible person if you want, but if someone is here against the law, why should our laws and rights protect them? This whole in-state tuition and insurance coverage for them is ridiculous. Sometimes i hate the state i live in. [/quote
The children are not illegal. If they are born in the U.S. they are citizens according to the Constitution of the United States.
But you are a horrible person.
