When I was first in Texas I got a job at a small manufacturing business. All the production workers were Mexican. Most from Mexico though a couple were born in the US. Most had phony documents. Some were part of a group who would not associate with Americans and who used coyotes to go back and forth to Mexico as they didn't have papers.
I left when one employee came in and wanted to be fired and rehired with her newly purchased identity. That's when I found out through one of the Mexican Americans that there were several places nearby where Mexican nationals could purchase new identities. One young woman was facing deportation because it was found out that she had been brought to the states illegally by her parents when she was a baby.
Last week a business near where I live was raided and nearly 300 illegal immigrants were taken into custody.
My grandfather came to the states from Germany and later became a US citizen. I have a stack of paperwork tracking all the steps he had to take. I have absolutely no issue with someone wanting to legally come to the states. I do see the strain of illegal immigrants on some services around here and I also see the benefit of legal immigrants.
Either way...humane treatment at the border should be a given.
