I have pity for the squalor and tyranny from which they are fleeing, but by rewarding successful illegal immigration we are encouraging people to fling themselves into the chasm of unknown dangers. You don't realize how many die trying to get here. That is not humane.
We are a nation built on LAW. And so the first lesson must be that legal entry is the only path to successful immigration. All other paths must be fruitless.
