Life, Love, and Disaster

The illegal immigrant issue is driving me nuts.

someone who has entered a country by bypassing customs and immigration controls

Illegal immigration describes migration across national borders without complying with the legal requirements. Some people call those they suspect of illegally immigrating, "illegal immigrants" or "undocumented immigrants". People who arrive in a legal manner but then outstay their visas (that is the authorized time in the host country), may also have illegal status.

It's not that I don't have sympathy; I just don't understand how anyone can demand rights if they aren't even supposed to be here. This country was derived on immigration. Not necessarily "illegal" immigration.

With that said...
