How the illegals justify themselves

They believe the proposed legislation unfairly targets Latino immigrants.

This is baloney. We aren't targetting Latinos as a group. It doesn't matter where you are from, Mexico, China, Canada, Cuba or Iraq, you can't come to this country illegally. There is a process for coming to this country legally. We have nothing against immigrants who follow the legal process, we are against people who short circuit that process and come here illegally.

This is a country of immigrants, and this country would not be possible without us.

This is a country of legal immigrants. Law abiding individuals who contribute to our society.

We work hard to get here and we work hard after we're here, but this bill is trying to take all that away.

This bill will take nothing away from you if you are here legally, and it will do nothing to stop more legal immigrants from entering the country. Other immigrant groups are not protesting, why is it that Latino immigrants both legal and illegal are the only ones protesting?

We may be illegal immigrants, but we are human. We deserve the same rights as everyone else, not be treated like criminals.

If you are here illegally, you broke the law. Simple as that. Lawbreakers are punished when caught. Why should we make exceptions and not treat a group of lawbreakers as criminals.
