Illegals are not the same as legals as you put it simply because of their status in the US. Of course they are all human, that isn't the point of this question...
However, while I agree they are different, I have not seen an example of illegals comparing themselves to legals (unless you mean saying they are here to make a better life the same as legal immigrants - in which case, NO they are NOT the same, again for the very same reason. ONE came here following our laws, the other came here BREAKING them...)

Well... they are all humans... and they all have hopes and dreams... and they are all just trying to survive and do what they can for their families...
In many ways I would say that they are the same. Have compassion. Probably the only difference is that one group is legal... and the other is not. Other than that I would say they are pretty much the same.

first of all.... exactly how many illegals have you spoken with that claim to be legal when they are in fact illegal??? do you speak their language?? how do you know they are not legal??? did you ask for their papers??? how often to come in contact with them? and how many of them have you spoken with that actually do this??? do they represent all illegals??? .......
because i speak with illegals quite daily in my line of work and not once have i had an illegal who wanted to be compared to an legal citizen..... and i work as close to the border as one could actually get...... if you are going to generate some stupid non-sense question..... back it up w/ some facts and details and stop spewing non-sense about illegals that just is not true!!!! people like you are consumed w/ hate and you miss the point!!!!!!!

No. They are the same. We are all human beings.
And you can't categorize people as "legals" and "illegals." Everyone has done something illegal at one time or another. Including you most likely.

It's really only the difference between someone who is successfully able to get through a country's immigration process to someone who hasn't been able to. The lucky and the unlucky. There's no major difference apart from the bureaucracy.

When you say "illegals" it sounds as legals and they do not like
name calling like ill, sick or trick.

I think they have lived here for so long they are confused about the rights that leagals have, its like wanting something for nothing, and we've all been there......

I guess you haven't seen the way they dress, talk, what they drive, eat, steal, and that $hity "let's polka music"! I see no comparison or assimilation!
