Currently one-third of the responses say that they don't want either kind of immigration, legal or illegal.Another question about the current massive outrage. After reading yet another thread that made absolutely no effort to differentiate legal immigration from illegal immigration, let's see what Republicans here actually think.
Please answer and elaborate, thanks.
Let's get one thing straight: Anyone with a brain is against ILLEGAL immigration, otherwise, what is the point in having laws? Any twit who says they are for ALL immigration (read: "illegal immigration" is just a euphemism for INVASION by INVADERS), is basically saying: "I'm for a country with no borders." And to those thinking that as they read this, then you are saying that you are for a country which is no country, for you can't have a country which is not defined by borders. And borders are meaningless if they are wide open.
So by such a person's way of thinking, America is a parking lot and it is up to whomever comes here that wants to park TO DEFINE US. If that's your gig, open borders, then realize then you also then can't be against Russia or anyone else influencing our elections either! For that is merely another way of our being defined by outside forces.
So a person MUST be for legal immigration, but realize, legal immigration isn't a one-way street. When a person applies, we still get to decide based on their origin, background, health, education and skills whether they are an ASSET or a liability, and why would we ever want to turn away an asset? Assets make you STRONGER. Liabilities give us what we have been getting for years: pig shit poverty refuse and scum bringing poverty, illiteracy, drugs and crime. America cannot be the salvation for a world filled with poverty; if you want opportunity here, prove to us you are not the refuse of other countries failures first.
So it would be interesting to see a conversation between you and one of them.

No need for any conversation. People against ALL immigration simply haven't thought it through to realize that we are constantly losing people to death, old age, accidents, moving, etc., and they need replaced. We can replace most by new births here, but that doesn't negate the willingness to LOOK at immigration CANDIDATES. If they are an asset, WE get to make the decision if we are better off with them than not. Keep in mind, at least that way you get to PICK AND CHOOSE who your people are, with new births here, we have no say---- when a new baby is born here, we have no way of knowing if that person will grow up to be a leader, an entrepreneur, a success, a genius, or a welfare queen, a criminal, a murder. With immigrants, we at least have some selection possibilities, so to be against ALL immigration as a blind, blanket policy is rather short-sighted.
And if Trump gets all the illegal criminals, gang members and riffraff out of this country (which I suspect is in the millions), that will go a long way to open things up for new, better people. We just don't want the charity cases (for the most part) of the failures and neglect of the rest of the world.
