74. For chrissakes, they're ILLEGAL immigrants!
They shouldn't be here in the first place. I don't want to make them part of our society, I want them sent away.

What does it say to the millions of people who think about illegally entering the U.S.? "Well, you shouldn't do that but if you do, we'll just offer you amnesty." How does this encourage people to respect our laws? What does it say to LEGAL immigrants who took the time and effort to become U.S. residents (and/or citizens)?

Why is it that so many here fail to recognize that these people have ALREADY broken laws? Is amnesty REALLY an equitable consequence for the decision to illegally enter the country?
