People are against ILLEGAL immigration. Most people support legal immigration.

A racist dogwhistle. Half of all "illegal" immigrants came here legally and very few of them commit any violent crime or theft. the only people ever accused of illegal immigration are Latino and it doesn't matter any more how they got here to the person screeching "ILLEGALS" than it does to the people welcoming them. People are people, end of story. The grossly inflated concern of illegal immigration is nonsense used to manipulate, you guessed it, racists.

The quotas for legal immigration from our neighbors to the south are stupidly low considering they come here anyway. It should be a million a year from Mexico and at least 100,000 a year from each Central American country. Then you would have less illegal immigration.

Why should people get preferred treatment because they're physically closer? We should have a points system like most other 1st world countries.
