Would you have preferred all the Jews in Poland and Germany in the 1940's waited legally in the ghettos for their US/UK immigration papers to process or would you have told them to get the hell out NOW to save their lives? How many less could have been murdered by the Nazis if they fled illegally? How many Mexican lives have been saved because of illegal immigration?
Lastly, I do not appreciate your insistance that I shouldn't post here because I don't agree with your stance on illegal immigration. This forum is for debate, not for sheep.

So let me try to guess. You think we should invite EVERYONE that wants to escape their wartorn country into the U.S.? THat's quite a lot of countries. How are they going to take care of themselves? Are we going to have to foot the bill with money we don't have? What about public housing? There's a shortage of that throughout the country. Jobs? Our unemployment rate is around 10% and in some states it's over 10% how are they going to get jobs to take care of themselves? What about the American citizens? Are we going to leave them hanging dry because we have to take care of refugees?
