Here's something that stuck me about this whole "issue". Most of the people who are against illegal immigration that use the excuse "my grandparents/great-grandparents came here legally, why can't these people?" don't seem to remember that in order to come to the USA and legally become a citizen back then all they had to do was show up at Ellis Island and register. It's not like that anymore. If it was that easy, there would be no such thing as an illegal immigrant. Am I oversimplifying the process back then?
