So far, all I can find is "They're criminals".
People that cross illegally are in fact breaking laws that exist for good reasons.
There is no justification whatsoever to abusing, denigrating and destroying the lives of people who walked across an imaginary line signifying where one country ends and another begins.
There is plenty of justification to send people that come here illegally back to where they came from. Laws don't stop being legitimate just because you say so.
If you were prosecuting white people entering illegally from Canada the way you are brown people entering from Central America, at least it wouldn't appear to be so racist and hateful, but you're not.
Canada is a first world country and its citizens are not scrambling to cross illegally. Acting like illegal crossings from the north are as big of a problem as illegal crossings from the south is just dishonest and ignorant. I think our immigration laws should be even stricter. We don't need more unskilled and uneducated poor people in the United States. Mexican and middle American doctors and scientists are more than welcome. If you can't come here and be a productive, federal income tax paying member of our society then you shouldn't be allowed to immigrate.
Congratulations, the only difference between Americans and Nazi Germany, is that your government isn't carrying out the massacres themselves, they're just letting the lunatic fringe do their dirty work for them.
If our nation is so terrible you can leave. Nobody will try to stop you.
Mexican doctors are NOT in fact welcomed. They're told their training is inadequate and they must go back to school and get proper training, and be re-llicensed. This is true of all of the professions. Doctors. lawyers, engineers, accountants. The white professionals have blocked immigrants from just walking in and joining the club.
That's because most of their training is nowhere near what they would be required to have here in the US. People coming into the US should contribute to our economy, not become a drag on it. If they meet the standards, they can come in legally, not sneaking across the border in the middle of the night.
I once had an ESOL aide to help translate for kids who spoke Spanish. In Columbia, he had been a aerospace engineer. When he came to the US, his reading skills in English were so poor he could not do any of the work. He was a great guy, but a company was not going to change all of their documents to Spanish just in order to employ him.
My experience is just the opposite. The doctors, lawyers and engineers I've met from India, and South America spoke far better English than the Eastern Europeans who were not required to retrain.
What does legal immigrants have to do with my thread?
