It bothers me that many in the world think this country should be theirs by rights, as if we were the air or water, as if just because the U.S. exists, it should be free for all. I don't see any Americans hanging out at the borders of any other countries, demanding to be let in.

Just for the sake of argument, suppose you owned the biggest house on the block, and yours was the only one with a swimming pool, and a golf course out back. You had a fence around your house, and all your neighbors protested outside your fence, and demanded the right to use your pool, play on your golf course, and, while they were at it, demanded that you order in food for them while they were enjoying themselves. Doesn't seem fair, does it?
