I am talking only about illegal immigration, not legal immigration. I think anyone who applies through the normal process should be so allowed. That is not the problem we are discussing. The problem is people coming here, over staying their visas, and or entering illegally across our pourous borders. You have the benifit of being an island. We need to become an island to control the traffic.

We are talking about MILLIONS of people, not a few hundred thousands.
