If you were born here or your parents were born here then you are not an immigrant. It's easy to twist things to your liking, attempt to use it in your favor, and then try to belittle other people when you really only show your lack of education. Secondly, 100 years ago there when there was a mad rush of immigrants there was an immediate increase of crimes, just like today. Immagine that, people who have nothing must commit crimes to survive? Did you know that over 30% of all agrivated criminals in our jails are illegal immigrants? That's typically over $40,000 a year to house and feed one inmate. That's a large bill for the tax payers to pick up. Money I think that could be better served going to our school systems.
