Immigantion must be controlled.
I can recall what happened to the indigenous population who lived on what we today call the great plains. In essence thay were made into the villans who had to be suppressed by any means at our disposal. That demonization took place in the 1800's, a little before my time, but I have seen the results in many of the reservations on the northern great plains. The results are nothing to be poroud of.
Today, as it was in the 1930's we again have a demon that must be suppressed. As it was in the days leading up to the persecution of the Jews in Europe, a scape goat has been found to hate. This time the demon has taken the form of the native population of the Central America. Be very careful how you treat this demon and watch how your elected representatives solve the problem which they invented. It was Ben Franklin, in 1776 who said "Those who sacrifice essential liberty for temporary safety are not deserving of either liberty or safety." Is that what you really want?

Yes, we need to be careful how we handle this - simply recognizing the problem would be a good first step, closing the borders a good second step - once that’s done, look for a good third step.
We cannot allow Mexicans to take over - once the baby boomers retire health care expense will go through the ceiling and adding the cost of treating non-citizens will be out of the question. We need to take care of each other first - those who have ‘served’ as citizens all their lives and in so many ways. Funds are not unlimited and Mexico must take care of their own.
