I think this is where the argument often gets misconstrued, as we do allow immigrants into the country, we just ask that they come through legally.
Should we allow more, should it be easier for the less fortunate? I can't answer those questions or why the numbers are what they are, but we cannot just allow free unchecked entry, and uncontrolled numbers. There is not a country in the world that has open immigration with no constraints.
