Why do the pro-illegal supporters keep screeching that the USA's laws are unfair when there are countries with more strict immigration laws (China, Mexico, Saudi Arabia, etc.)? I thought you pro-illegals were all about free movement of peoples?
Why is it you guys only want illegals to enter the USA when Mexico keeps deporting its illegals and the Chinese keep North Koreans from escaping Kim Jong ill's hell-hole? If you're against USA immigration laws then you should also be against all immigration laws...
(note: this is a restating of a previous question which I deleted due to unsatisfactory responses... hopefully someone here gives me a better answer)

Lots of people want to ride with you in the limo, and feel you should offer it free of charge since you own it and can afford it. . But when it breaks down they want you to help pay for the gas for their car so they can keep it running.
Same here--many want what America has with little inconvenience to them. But they want their own is to remain in full operating conditions.
You are right I don't see people of other countries working to change their countries laws but are hollering to change ours. I would like to know why this isn't happening on a world scale. I just don't see if happening-nor have I see a post to that happening.
I would guess most (not all) are only interested in what affects them personally.

Pro-illegals are hypocrites who don´t look at the "big picture". They want amnesty for illegals, but how are we going to do that? Then we´d have to give amnesty to all illegals, from all countries, all the time, which isn´t practical. Open international borders are not practical. There has to be some sort of physical line drawn or everything would be chaos. They just don´t get it. They think the world is some sort of utopia.

I do feel bad for people from Cuba and other countries... I can't imagine the kind of life they have to live in those countries- people from those countries I do respect our laws.. if somone from Cuba reaches land they get asylum- but you will never make me feel bad for people coming from free countries to here... they need to do it the legal way... they have the opportunities there, they just don't go after them.. just like citizens here...If we talk about Mexican illegal immigrants.. I've been to Mexico and they have a nice little country there now-it's not like it was 10 years ago.. they have built themselves back up... with all this illegal immigration stuff going on I decided to look into Mexico a bit more.. and they have the 12th largest economy in the world, they have mandatory free school systems, and a huge tourist industry... so why should I feel bad for the illegals from there.. if they don't prosper in their country that's their problem.. just like people that don't prosper in our country...there are poor uneducated people in our country

I personally have a problem with people that come here illegally and DEMAND rights that they don't deserve and didn't have in the country's they left behind.Why not use that voice that bravado to help your home nation become a better more livable place.No one said it would be easy but why not try instead of simply running away and then try to make the USA into that same country you just ran away from.Use that unity ,that sense of family ,to bring about change in your own country.We are not nor we ever be any nation but the USA.We are a nation of many than somehow blend together and become strong.
You will not change this nation for your own needs and desires,many have tried and failed.Either assimilate or be left behind.You can not stand alone in this country .
Illegal aliens from any nation need to stay and fight for a better life in their own country.That's what people do ,that's what Americans did here in this nation when we won Independence from England.
Because no other country would tolerate this invasion,they would put an end to it the minute it begin,The USA is too soft on malcontents and rabble rousers

Thats easy America is a push over. They know they can get by with complaining about immigration here. China or Saudi Arabia would most likely put you in prison for such things...

The illegal immigrants do seem to want what ever fits them, they want our laws so lose that almost anyone can get to be here legally, yes like open borders but only in the U S A. They say its their human right to live anyplace in the world, but for some reason it sounds like only here in the U S A.

I hate illegals. Americans in Mexico cannot even own land, yet damn border jumpers want all the freedoms of the world here. The Mexican Army will SHOOT illegals in Mexico that are there from El Salvador or other hell holes countries, yet when the crybaby Mexicans come here, if we deport them we are being all evil and all. My 2 cents say, LETS SHOOT THE ILLEGALS COMING HERR!!!!, make the mexicans feel right at home lmao!!!

You're lumping everyone into the same category, which is something I see a lot of on this board. Some people believe we should have wide open borders. I don't and never have. We should and are entitled to control who enters the country. That should answer your main question.
I also feel there should be a way for the millions of illegal aliens already here to be eligible to apply for legal status.

Simple: the pro-illegals are communist & socialist in nature and want to destroy our capitalist society any way they can.
You should see the laws against immigration into Mexico. They don't mind sending them here, but you try to get in there and you sign all your rights and freedoms away.
Of course everyone wants to immigrate into the US because of the enormous opportunities and robust economy. No one wants to immigrate into those other countries, so it's not an issue to the liberal socialists.

You are exactly right, I think it's only after we become a nation with out political correctness that the immigration will slow down.
I agree with the first answer, they are lying about what they really want.
