You are probably an immigrant so list up pal.

1. You feel compelled to defend the astronomical LEGAL immigration levels of the last 40 years because if you don't you will feel like a hypocrite.
2. You should feel lucky you got in but you should also realize the obvious: that the USA immigration policy (lottery and chain)is not working, immigrants are not assimilating and the USA is hurtling towards socialism largely due to the huge immigrant population.
3. Americans can say when enough is enough, foreign nationals have no right to come here.
4. Anyone defending the current legal immigration system is an idiot or a fool.
