I can understand people having different viewpoints on this issue. Is what I don't understand is the passion. The same can be said for affirmative action.

What is the bigger problem?
Illegal Immigration
Affirmative Action
Deficit
Exploding gov't bureaucracy
Inefficient gov't
Wasteful gov't
The degradation of individual liberties

Focus your energies on the big stuff, then we can nitpick what's left!

I would say number one and number seven on your list top the others.

The others matter of course but the two I mentioned are paramount right now.

Do you live in a border state? Are your emergency rooms closing because they are the primary care facilities for illegals? Are your classrooms filled with kids who do not speak English, holding the rest of the class back? Are your neighborhoods filled with trash left over from dozens of day laborers congregating and waiting for work? Are your prisons filling up with the criminal class of the third world?

Yeah, why would anyone be passionate about this issue?

Illegal Immigration is the biggest problem. It negatively impacts just about everything else you mentioned.
