My maternal grandparents came through Ellis Island and went on to lead productive lives much as the rest of the family.

But Carlo there are those who choose to skirt the legal immigration system in this country.They are doing a great disservice to the immigrants who want to come here legally. You don't hear the heated debates going on about legal immigration,only illegal.If the first thing you do when coming to this country is break the law,then you are already off to a bad start.Give those immigrants who legally come here the credit,they respect the laws and are willing to do things the right way.
