    I’m so strongly opposed to illegal immigration that I think we should just open the borders and let folks come and go as they please.

      I’m so strongly opposed to illegals undercutting the working class in this country, that I think we should give them all passports so that they’re legally entitled to minimum wage and thus offer no competitive advantage to greedy employers

          I agree, hence why I suggest giving them passports the moment they touch soil

            Missed the point completely.

            They may be “undocumented immigrants,” or even “illegal immigrants” (and that’s borderline).

            But “illegals” is dehumanizing.

              oh sorry it was not my intent to dehumanize them. I thought illegals was a valid contraction of illegal migrants
