I do, my parents waited so many years to get their papers, paid so much money for the visas, had to travel to Ciudad Juarez and Tijuana for their immigration appointments (having an appointment doesn't guarantee you will get the papers), plus, an immigration attorney. (they are not cheap)
Oh, don't forget about renewals and law changes, maybe you don't qualify anymore and all the money spent was lost.
Then you have somebody else cutting all that and asking for the same rights? and have a granted citizenship? Not even my parents, I think they still need to have 5 years living here, learn English (if they are still young)study the questions, pay and take the citizenship test.

I'm a legal immigrant and I ain't complaining. Shoot, I'd try to come by any way means to this Country too in order to live a better life if I had to. I'm not hating. If you really want to think about it, technically most of our Parents and Grandparents were illegal immigrants who came to this Country to make a better life for us and themselves as well. How could we have forgotten that? And I'm not just talking about Hispanics either, people are forgetting that there are other illegal immigrants from all parts of the world and not only from Hispanic Countries. No one is saying anything regarding the Russians, Chinese, Indians, etc., I wonder why?

Yea, what's up with that?? I mean, they were illegal at one point in time too. Then, i do kind of see why legals are complaining, it isn't fair that most of these Mexicans jump the fence into the States and some of them don't get caught. My parents are immigrants and they came here the right way, they waited patiently. Now, why can't all these illegal immigrants do the same?? They're making all immigrants and Hispanics look bad.

And why shouldnt they have the right to complain? They took the time to come in the LEGAL way which cost them time and money...
They also have to pay for the services that Illegals use....
They probably have relatives that are waiting to come in and then have to watch while ILLEGAL border jumpers basically "cut" in line...which in turn makes it harder for those who want to come in legally to do so...
Many are ashamed for how some of their OWN countryman just blatantly break the law...they may feel those actions reflect on them....

Very much so. The legal immigrants from many different countries that I know are highly resentful of the free ride that illegals are demanding, as well as our government's lack of action to correct this huge issue. They are just as expressive in their disgust as American's have been, from my experience.

Of course they are! They're the ones who were cut in front of. If I waited in line for hours to buy the things that I wanted, and I saw someone cut in the front at the last minute & then refuse to pay, I'd be ticked, too.
By the way, to anyone reading this who is a legal immigrant, thank you for doing it right. Glad you're here!

Yes, and they have a right to do so. The legal ones did everything the right way because they are law abiding people, while the illegal criminal aliens just jumped over the border as they pleased.
Round them up and deport.
The illegals... get them outta here.
