Re: Again
I live in Arizona. State of SB1070. I can personally tell you there is a large Hispanic population here. I can also tell you many of the Hispanics I know are either illegal or their parents were illegal immigrants. One thing I can also tell you is the idea that illegals are ruining life for 'legals' is wrong. Jobs aren't as hard to find as many would say, at least if you passed High school with a 3.5+ GPA or have a few years in college. The only jobs that are hard to reach are low requirement jobs, those are being fought over. One sector that is desired in Arizona is nurses, a field I will be in.

if your pro open borders then why do you lock your doors at night and windows? why are your personal borders closed off?
There is a straw-man argument here, and I did like the way FE addressed it, but I will address it a different way.
When someone illegally enters your house they are most likely looking to steal items for no service returned. Yet, when someone enters your country they are looking to make a better life for themselves in the same sense as the burglar, but they offer a service and good in exchange for money. All analogies crumble eventually, don't use them in a real argument.
Btw, I'm pro open borders in the sense that it should be easier for immigrants to gain citizenship instead of a 7 year process.
