I don't see the difference. The illegals can't emigrate here legally ?Your great grandparents didn't face the same immigration laws when they came here as we have today.
In their time, all they had to do was get here.
It's very unfair to make that comparison.
My grandparents came here about 100 years ago.
All they had to do was get here.
Millions of immigrants did that until the 20th century when the immigration laws started to be passed.
With the exception of the immigration laws against the Chinese. That was signed into law in 1882. It was called the chinese exclusion act.
