>>No one cares if people come here... just do it legally.

Half my grandparents came here from Mexico legally (the other 1/2 from Ireland a generation before them). My sis-in-law went through the immigration process legally (prior to becoming my sis-in-law)--it still burns my bacon to know the hoops she had to jump through to get here, while someone who went through NO hoops thinks they should get the same green card.

The more immigrants, the better.

Just keep the illegal ones out (and no new Bracero program either).

My family all came from Germany in the years before WWI. One of my great grandfather lied to get into the army so he could fight in that war when he was just 14 years old.


Locally I know several hispanic families who came legally in the years surrounding WWII. Every single one of them that I know is opposed to illegal entrants as well.
