there are many bigger problems we face than the millions of hard working illegals buying up the houses in my suburb and thereby reducing the crime rate and DUI rate significantly.

You and very few others believe that. Tell it to these folks:

Harvest of death on the Eastern Shore

Since 2002, more than 90 people have been injured and 18 killed on the Eastern Shore in accidents involving Hispanic workers driving rogue vehicles. The fatalities represent about one-fourth of the 71 highway deaths on the Eastern Shore in that period, even though the year-round Hispanic population makes up only 5 percent of the region’s 51,000 residents. Those numbers swell during tomato-picking season, from July through early November, when most of the fatalities occurred.(snip)

BRIDGEPORT — Chester Dillahunt of Fairfield survived World War II and the Korean War to be killed at the age of 86 by a drunken illegal immigrant. On Friday, Jeronimo Rocha, from Brazil, was sentenced to six years in prison for the crime. He'll be deported back to Brazil after he serves his term.(snip)

"by a drunken illegal immigrant."

As an expert in vehicle crashes (1968 to present), the key word is "drunken" not "illegal immigrant". What do the following have in common?
-Vehicle crashes and deaths at any and every location in the USA
-Hunting, fishing, boating, sportsman's accidents and deaths
-Domestic violence and death
-Tragic deaths due to guns
-Tragic deaths due to kives, baseball bats, etc
-Being fired from a job and inability to get a good job
Yep, alcohol.

One of the major problems with illegal immigrants is alcohol. But that is also a major problem with non-immigrants.

The solution is simple: Quality, not quantity.
An immigrant should be judged by the content of his character, not by the color of his ID.
