You claim you want immigration to be done right but if I remember right, you've bitched that the illegals here have every right to make a better life for themselves no matter how they "cross the border" (i use 'cross the border' to refer to ANY kind of entry into the USA - air, sea, land).

I have said that I "understand" why illegal immigrant are prepared to go to any lengths to better their lives, that is nothing to do with supporting them that's just human empathy.
If I was in there situation I would also try any means necessary to improve the lot of me and my loved ones that is human nature.
I have never said I "support" people who enter countries illegally doing so, never.

Fair enough.

I've befreinded plenty of illegal people over the years and I've helped every single one of them to gain legal citizenship. Granted it was after the fact, but all in all they do want to do it legally.

Sadly, many of the countries people come here from are just awful places. News media there under the heavy hand of their own corrupt government only give them bullshit information about America. They don't make it easy for them to live there nor do they allow them to come here easily. Hostages in their own lands.

Now, what the PROPER thing would be for any country is to have just like America did.... people revolt to a degree - and try to change the situation at home. America should support such things and be a bit of a bully in the process. But our position does not allow this and if we did, the world would cry with outrage that we're a bunch of big 'buttinskies'.

The new Mexican president is actually trying to clean up what the past has destroyed there. Mexicans should be wanting to better their homeland and take pride in who they are. But if the people keep leaving (Mexico or any other messed up country) who's going to be left to instill change? Country leaders have taken advantage over a weak populace time and again. Power corrupts. Absolute power corrupts absolutely.
