No, I don't condone illegal immigrant ion, but I recognize the economic reality that exist today and the need for immigration reform to accomodate that reality.

Of course you do, and unless someone hacked your profile page, here are your own words...

"But the facts are that our economy is dependent on immigrant labor; not enough are being admitted legally and it is impossible to prevent foreign laborers from entering America as long as we need their labor and they need the money to feed their families."
So according to you, as long as our economy needs the criminals and the criminals need the money, then crime is OK with bayourod?

That's true. I reckon that without illegal immigration, our economic growth would be a lot less than it is now. With no immigration at all, we'd be in a recession like Japan or many European countries which have 0 or less than 0 population growth.
