Actually I agree with you about that. I am very sympathetic towards immigrants personally. When I lived in the US (Brooklyn) most of my associates and friends were immigrants from Eastern Europe and Russia. I am currently a legal documented immigrant in Latvia so I understand better than most the issues involved.

That being said, there has to be some attempt to enforce the law. My personal solution is to put up a wall on the southern border with Mexico, increase legal immigration and streamline the process (the legal immigration process in the US would make the Soviets proud), and provide amnesty for the immigrants that are currently here.
