Some of these people aren't here to exploit the system, I'd imagine if there were more than one safe border they could cross on foot this wouldn't be such a big deal. It's a matter of attempting to get away from terrible situations they have no other way of avoiding. I still think this is the kind of thing that is very touchy but the fact that we're starting to look into this on a case by case basis is an improvement. THe next step is to give them the ditch digging and roadworks jobs that most other "muricans" are too good to do. Within a few years any random illegal immigrant can be a well integrated and productive member of society.
Most Americans came here to this country to live a better life, because the country they previously came from was poor, and/or the situation was terrible. They came legally though, there's the difference. There is no reason why they can't wait to be approved to come here. I don't think it's touchy at all, Americans should come first; not illegal immigrants. The Obama administration is the root problem, they're lazy, do nothing, and can't compromise. They should of put a stop to this awhile ago. Bush started the whole mess, but I won't go into it.
You and every other person in this country would do the exact same thing as them if you were in their position
They're not crossing the border to break laws they're doing it to preserve their basic human rights
No I wouldn't. It doesn't matter what their 'true' intentions are, they are coming here
illegally, and expect to be treated the same as any other American. It's unfair. Most don't even pay their taxes, AND they are illegal too. It's pathetic how stupid our Democrat politicians can be.
there's absolutely nothing wrong with taking advantage of a legal system
Are you kidding?
U.S. should annex mexico
In 20 years, we'll go from God Bless America to "Viva La Americano!".
