I'd like to go and visit other countries too. But that costs money. So should I sneak across the borders in order to go there? Then if I like it enough and find a job there, should I be allowed to stay?
Here's a question a lot closer to home for you: If you have a nice house and someone who doesn't have as much money as you can't afford a house like yours and decides to break into yours, should he be allowed to stay? Yeah, there are actually people who are doing that today.
We have laws for a reason. You believe in keeping our country safe, don't you?
Of course I have. In fact, the CW channel is showing an episode from each series every night, so I've been getting my fill and remember the episode you're talking about. The situation being portrayed was one where some people needed a few more days to leave--but they were leaving. We're talking about people who have illegally come in the first place, and want to stay permanently. What message does that send to the Mexicans and others who have actually gone through the proper channels to do it the right way?
Actually, it's to keep out the ones who would cross the border illegally. The border still would have legal crossing points. It has them right now, and people come and go through there all day long. It's only when you want to break the law that you climb over a wall rather than enter through the gate. Ever read "Pilgrim's Progress?"
Look, I am not going to try to reason with you. If you do not see the absolute silliness of the problem of deporting millions of undocumented people overnight then I cannot help you. Believe whatever you want to believe.
