“Well, it needs to change by getting back to local and states rights.”

That’s not as good as it sounds; there are a few legitimate roles for a federal government, and the border and defense are included in them. Without a national standard, you could have a situation where California admits immigrants that Texas never normally would, and that person then moves to Texas as a CALIFORNIAN rather than a Mexican/Saudi/whatever. This is exactly what happened in Canada with the Millenium bomber; he was admitted to Quebec as a French speaker, from which point he easily traveled to western Canada - where they would have never admitted him otherwise.
