BullLee if they weren't economically exploited by the US then maybe your point would be valid!

It is also wrong for Mexico and other South and Central American countries to force their poorest citizens to migrate in order to survive. Why is there no debate about the need for these emigrant countries to police their own borders?
The actual purpose of absurdly restrictive immigration laws isn't to keep foreigners out, it's to keep them from forming a union. Self-styled "conservatives" who claim that undocumented workers are overwhelming our cities can't back up that assertion with any data at all, except bogus post hoc analyses designed from the outset to scapegoat immigrant workers. There's a moral dimension to this - it is wrong to oppress the poor. Viva Cardenal Mahoney!
The problem with amnesty is that we tried it in 1986 with around 3 million illegal immigrants. It didn't work, because the enforcement side of the plan was not consistently implemented. Now, we have over 12 million (2000 census), but I believe we have more like 20-30 million. Our cities were overwhelmed by the onslaught and were in the red prior to this "great recession." We just can't afford this huge population from all over the world. Our illegal population is larger than most nations of the world! The first thing we must do is to enforce workplace laws--heavy fines and imprisonment of employers, before we offer amnesty. I'd like a job myself and I was born here!
"the right wingers who relish the chance to paint the demonstrators as lawbreakers and somehow a danger to America". They are law brekers arent they, if they came to your country this way they would be throw out the door and you know it. This is not about imigration alone, it is about the North American Union, we are not a communist country, the NAU is not welcome here the way the European Union was welcomed in Europe by the politicians there , not the people. You are just upset because of 50,000 Irish illegals. you do know what illegal means right? Not within the law. Immigrants will reach 100 milion within 10 years, we can't absorb that, we can't absorb the 20 million that are coming now. There are no jobs and we will have to pay for their welfare. The Irish are good workers, they work hard here they say, whose jobs are they working?
What's different now is that fear-mongering Republicans are no longer in power. America was confident enough to elect a Black man as president - but political awareness hasn't caught up to that fact. This is a young nation willing to take on challenges and do the right thing. America's immigration policies are fearful and counterproductive. Large rallies inspire politicians to take risks.
