How stereotypical... Some illegal immigrants are the children of illegal immigrants and came here as infants and toddlers. They have no connection with their native countries. They shouldn't be punished because of their parents.
I agree with this, it isn't there fault. Any illegal immigrant that came here as a child and completes a college education should IMO automatically be granted American citizenship.
Ya'll are gonna act like illegal immigration is OK to sound "politically correct", but 30 years from now when they make up the majority of the population and are hating and discriminating against your race, then you're going to feel differently.
Even if they make up the majority of the population one day, which is quite unlikely, they are not the ones with the power, and they are among those that vote the least.
You don't chose to be gay, you chose to be an illegal (at least as far as adults are concerned), even if they didn't chose the country they were born in.
But you choose to be illegal for a shot of a better life i mean someone isn't just going to wake up and say "oh i want to be illegal today have society hate me and live scared in another country."
Well, some do need privileges when they're still fairly new to the country. Some need help with learning the official language and adjusting to the culture of that country.
i am not talking about things like this
education is free here... and it has to be for everyone, if they need a little more help of course it should be given

This is based on opinion lol you can't possibly know how each single illegal person feels about America or Americans
Illegal immigration destroys the economy. It's alot more than just "doing the jobs Americans don't want to do" (which is a strawman argument anyways, but let me not go there today ).
And I don't know why some Americans defend illegals anyways. Most of these illegals despise Americans, and whenever they have children or healthcare they can't afford, it's coming out of YOUR paycheck.
If you want to reap the benefits of being an American citizen, wait your turn, and work hard like everyone else.
I agree for the most part. Some illegals do have the intention to work hard for a better life. I wish all immigrants were like this, and not here for smuggling drugs, creating crimes, spreading hate, etc.
being a legal immigrant is not easy.. its not like ''Oh i want to move to this country and they'll take me and give me papers cause i'm cute''. usually in most countries you need to have studied some specific careers, work in specific jobs or have enough money to invest.
So, now lets talk about the fact that most people who emigrate are usually low class and middle class people that didn't study to be engineers nor have the money to invest in your country, legal immigration is not a choice. their best bet is to go illegal and marry or pray they get to spend enough years in the country to get their papers.
But you choose to be illegal for a shot of a better life i mean someone isn't just going to wake up and say "oh i want to be illegal today have society hate me and live scared in another country."
Yes, I get that. Just don't compare their situation to gays because it isn't the same thing.

That's why my country kicks the parents out, but not the children. It's a mess, but slay a bit

Because of things like this.
Not every illegal immigrant is "humble and hardworking".
Very controversial subject. On one hand, a lot of them are just looking for a better life and for that I salute them for being brave enough to leave their country. Where on the other hand, some of them cause a lot of trouble. If I knew someone was an illegal immigrant, but a good person, I wouldn't report them.
Which is now being paid for by all the people who work hard only to have to pay for people who aren't even citizens of this country.
Except in 2011 alone undocumented people paid 11 billion dollars in taxes to the government. Meanwhile, big business, which you so republicans so dearly love, like GE, paid no taxes despite massive profits.
