Went back and read your links. We already admit over 1 million legal immigrants per year. There's no reason immigration should be easier.
Sounds like people are using asylum as a loophole as they would not qualify otherwise. No country in the world wants a massive influx of poor uneducated unskilled people, it would be terrible for our citizens and economy. Sorry, just a fact.
This is my favorite part of the constitution, it's in the small print of course, "In all criminal prosecutions, the accused shall enjoy the right to a speedy and public trial, by an impartial jury of the State and district wherein the crime shall have been committed, [except when It's "kind of obvious"]

In 1996, Congress created expedited removal for undocumented immigrants without a hearing. Initially it only applied at the U.S. border. Then it was expanded to within 100 miles of a border for undocumented immigrants who had been in the country less than 14 days.
President Donald Trump announced in January that his administration will apply the program anywhere in the United States to undocumented immigrants present less than two years.
"In the past, the government has largely prevailed when such programs have been challenged," Gordon said. "However, the Trump administration is proposing to expand some of these programs to include many more undocumented immigrants; it remains to be seen if the expansion will be upheld."
In Texas, Catholic and Lutheran charities have been making tons of money with these kids. This has been going on for well over twenty years that I know of, probably much longer. You'd think a church would be not for profit, but that's not true. It's has played a large part in turning me off to organized religion.
Don't forget butts in pews and $$$$ in collection plates as well. Gotta keep the churches growing...
LOL I'll take those links with a skosh more weight than your "girlfriend."
yes, why not read propaganda than the word of someone who went thru the process, by all means. Like I said, it's a gross excuse....not to follow the process.

Seeing as you're coy about which "process" your GF used, I guess you've placed the subject off limits in your mind. Family-based? Employment? Refugee?
Because - as I'm sure you know - these aren't universally available options.
And I happen to know, because I went through the process myself. I am of course lucky - I have resources, sought-after skills, speak decent English and have Scandinavian genes. And I have no qualms calling it a colossal and expensive pain in the rear.
