I don't agree with them

Hahaa... you guys have sense of humor!

Anyway, I'm an immigrant to this country and it's been 12 years since then. But I don't agree with them at all. Some of these guys are illegal and basically just cut through the line. My family and I, my dad being the first to leave, had to wait 10 long years before we can come over and be as family again. These guys are already given the favor/option of staying here, but only comes with a cost. Which I think is reasonable, because immigrants that did it legally had to pay the cost as well, it didn't matter what it was. They always say that immigrants are "these" and "that", but that does not justify crossing the border, or coming over illegally.

I think it's not fair for other immigrants that waited in line, and for those that are contiously waiting in line. The favor is already within their reach and they still can't agree with it, saying paying such cost is unfair or what not when they've done wrong to begin with.

That's basically my feelings on this issue. While I feel for the heartbreaking stories of Mexican immigrants, people from ALL countries (from mexico to China to Germany) need to wait a long line to get a green card to work/live in America. Just isn't fair if there is a loophole for people to come in...
