The arrogance and the sense of entitlment are appalling. Not at all surprising in this age of PC. It sort of reminds me some video's of convicts in prison demanding things like cell phones and better food etc. Hmmmm could this be part of the criminal mentality?

In 1954, it was so easy to deport...round them up, haul them to the border...who was watching?

Now there is CNN, YouTube, Facebook, Twitter, and tons of others I dont even know about...

They are young, educated, connected and well funded.

These aint the day laborers down to the Home Depot....

Coming out of the shadows? I think they have made themselves pretty visable for some time now.

I don't even know how to describe how corny and lame this is. I mean, I understand how important this is to those people, but they don't realize how many people are willing to combat what they are saying with their view and it is those who combat them's right. People get very proud when they know that so many people are against something that are. It's like they don't even think about how many illegal residents and workers are here and what that means for those of us who are here legally. They care about themselves and their future ("Oh no! I'm going to be deported! But, things are so much easier for me here! I must fight! I don't want to go back to that other place!") Well, what about our legal right to object to them? I mean, is it really that hard to comprehend and understand that we (legal residents) got WAY more say about this than them? If anyone is going to be heard FIRST, it should be us. We're talking about breaking simple laws, this isn't like discrimination of someone who is owed a right, this is people who weren't even supposed to be here illegally that are now telling us to accept them even though they are here undocumented. Like so many people say, "Go back, do it the right way and wait your turn." I don't care how many college credits you have or how much you cry (you can't be sympathetic to each illegal immigrant out of the millions), every undocumented immigrant shouldn't just be excused, that's so disrespectful to legal residents and those who legally want to come here. We got like millions upon millions illegal immigrants and they are expecting amnesty for all.

They really don't have an argument.

Yes it won't be as easy to deport in the past.First securing the border and severely limiting H1B visas would help,enforcement of employment regulations,cutting off benefits and eliminating Birthright citizenship(Anchor Babies) we can turn this around rather quickly and be on the right path,remove the incentives and deportation and attrition will reverse the numbers eventually.
