They haven't even been in this country for a generation yet. They didn't give us the chance and pleasure to oppress them yet...that's not fair...and they are liars

For the same reason you can't help yourself from generalizing, ignorance.
It's no more ridiculous than having a so called AMERICAN tell us their family came over on the mayflower and claim to have paid taxes the whole time unlike illegals, Princess.
Better yet, their family came to the US Legally and they HAD to learn English when the only form of being legal back then was getting on a boat, btw Immigrants didn't need to know English back then as well.
You see not all of us Mexicans are in gangs, illiterate and have a hygiene problem. Some of us make better citizens than those that were simply born here (and yes I was born here as well).....go ahead, take the credit for your parents and grandparents work.

In the first place, illegals are not being "oppressed." Nobody made them come here & nobody is making them stay here. If they really want a chance to prove they are good citizens, they should go thru the proper steps to become a legal citizen. Then they should try to learn English & assimilate into the American culture & way of life. That's what most of the European immigrants did.

Yes, they are liars.... they choose to invade the USA and attempt to live here and STEAL all they can from our society.... yet they offer no allegience or patriotism towards the USA... they try to make this country into corrupt cesspools like the ones they come from....
the desireability of a country is measured by how many people are trying to get into that country... against how many are trying to escape from it..... that perspective tells me that the USA is the best country on Earth...
People try to escape oppression, not run to it and then complain about it....
Illegal aliens are doing anything and everything they can in order to continue to live a life of crime in the USA instead of facing deportation as they should be...

Most 'illegals' traveled to the US to supply the excess demand for low-wage manual labor. Most American whites can trace their ancestory to people that jumped on a boat to come and perform low wage manual labor.
Furthermore, many 'illegals' are Mexicans working in land that was once Mexico.
The American economy thrives in part due to good and services provided by a 'lower class' of ultra low wage workers. For goods, its easy to have those workers in China. However, for services, 'illegals' are needed to provide the cheap service, while still maintaining high wages for citizens.
Thus people can be seen as 'ignorant' of history and economics, while 'opressing' those that provide for their standard of living.

Because they are dumb....
No, really, do you actually think they are going to sit down and try to reasonably pick out the pros and cons for each side?
They only give a **** about themselves..
"I deserve this.. even though I don't know what the hell I'm talking about. But, wait, I deserve this, because I say I do. I don't need to know what it's about because it doesn't matter. The fact is I need that and so I'm gonna get it."
And, so they truly believe they deserve it-- when technically they don't even have a right under the U.S. Constitution in the first place...
...Back to my first statement. "Because they are dumb."

Because they're idiots. Somehow they think they're being oppressed while they're leeching off of the country. Ridiculous.

I have heard them use the most ridiculous arguments that you can imagine to justify their criminal behaviors. This is just another lie that they tell and believe themselves. They will say anything. They aren't the most educated bunch but then again, criminals usually aren't. Have you heard them compare their "plight" with the Holocaust yet? That's the most ridiculous one.
