People, so many are missing the point. I don't see how these people's plight is being compared to black Americans who were born in America! How does that even compare to people who are her ILLEGALLY? Immigration is NOT the issue ....ILLEGAL immigration is. It's a fallacy to grab some law any law & then try & apply it to immigration. It's like arguing apples and oranges. No, you can not have the same rights as citizens when you are not one. See, the difference between Black Americans & illegal Immigrants is that Black citizens were fighting to have to SAME rights as their white counterparts, afterall they were born here. See they were already Americans, but viewed as a much lower class American. Illegal immigrants aren't viewed as any Americans because they're not.
I hope everyone who is all "we are the world" realizes that you have to look out for your country & your countrymen first. To just let everybody in however they come in is not in the best interest of the country.
Yes America is generally a well off nation, but not every american citizen is well off. The resources that the country has needs to be for the people of America. There's this skewed view that America is somebody's Daddy & can take care of the world but they're not & they can't. There are Americans that still need to be helped. Don't go & share yourselves right out of your own pie.
