There were people who tried to sneak their way onto ship from Europe to the United States.

But they all passed through Ellis. They were checked and lined up as soon as they got off the ship. Ships were searched.

I dont know where you get that fact, but it pales in comparison to 12-20 million illegals.
Anyone ever think about how many diseases illegals carry? Seriously, they do not have the vaccinations that we do in America.
The diffrerence between an illegal committing a crime and a citizen committing a crime can be summed up like this:
You spank your child in public for misbehaving. How would you feel if a complete stranger came up and spanked your child for misbehaving?

Now maybe, not back in the 1800's during the famine, which is what we were referring to.

There are over 50,000 illegal Irish in the United States in addition to millions of other "white" illegals. But you would never know reading these threads. According to the first poster, he/she doesn't even know if the "Hispanics" that commited the crime are illegal or not, but still felt compelled to post it. And most likely that wouldn't make a difference to this person. Most of you are going to respond that you are against ILLEGALS of whichever race or color. Maybe some of you.

50000 is nothing compared to 12 million. But if they are illegal then they need to go home. I am Irish/German, my mothers family came over legally during the famine, everyone needs to play by the rules, my family did it.
