      And who makes those laws? And for what purpose? Is it to curb the incoming illegal migrants? Doesn’t seem to work. Many people are crossing the border to look for work and are actually successfully integrating with their new society. Shouldn’t the law allow for legal transition rather than keeping them as illegal immigrants? Shouldn’t there be legal pathways to citizenship? Shouldn’t it be easy for those on visas to check when their papers will be expired to prevent being in the country illegally?

      The border isn’t a walk in the park to cross either. If you don’t die in the river, you’ll likely die in the desert. If it’s so high risk, what’s the reward worth? Why even bother crossing?

        If I showed up at your house at night, unannounced and without permission, would you throw me out right away or wait until I raided your fridge?

          I would call the cops and let them put you on trial, obviously.

          Also, I would’ve been able to see that you’ve come from the neighbour’s house, which is not as nice as mine. If it turns out in trial that you just wanted to escape the poverty of next door and want to sell your labor, hell yeah I’d pay. You can mow my lawn.

            And do you think the cops would remove me from your house before giving me a trial?

            Why don’t I get to stay? I demand to stay at your house until this is sorted out.

      That doesn’t mean they don’t deserve a fair trial.
