Why is it that when "anti-illegal" people say they are ONLY against ILLEGAL immigration, the people who are "pro-illegal" turn around and say that those people are anti-IMMIGRATION (they leave the "illegal" off) and that the country was founded on IMMIGRATION (completely ignoring that the other person said only illegal immigration, and also call them racist)? Is anyone else seeing the spin there? Is their "pro-illegal" debate THAT weak?

Because they CANNOT defend there ILLEGAL activities and it leaves them with nothing left but to pull the Legendary RACE CARD. It amazes me how they DEFEND Criminal activity Almost like there doing something Great breaking the law.

Its called reverse psychology. Making a virtue out of "illegal immigrants" who just want better lives, forced to leave children behind to provide them of a better future, endangering their lives to cross the desert for greener pasture, who toil the earth because gringos are too good for that task...Abiding by the law is not a virtue and not part of their script. And anti-illegals play the part of the antagonist of their soap opera. Oh, poor poor Jose!!You have done nothing wrong and look how they persecute you!!!

I believe part of the reason is because to immigrate legally to the US it's pretty much impossible for someone who comes from a third world country. If you check out the requisites to be able to apply, it's extremely difficult. You have to be a genius, or have a looooot of money, or have good connections, in order to get a long term visa in the US.
So bieng against illegal immigration is similar to being against normal human beings immigrating to the US.
I don't believe it's right to do anything illegal, but what would you do if you were living in a country where you're income as a professional is $500 a month? And if you have a family to support and you know that on the other side of the border you can earn $1200 cleaning up houses?
Get's you thinking, uh?

It's all about media spin. And how they can get the "Great Unwashed" to believe it.
And, yes, their pro-illegal debate is that weak!

Sure it is, haven't you noticed? If you want to protect the country's laws and borders, you're a racist .... don't ask me how, but that seems to be the way it is ....
