    The difference between a burglar who enters uninvited and an unfortunate down-n-out to whom YOU EXTEND a charitable invitation of your hospitality and whom behaves by the house rules!

    One behaves as a 'guest' ; ... the other behaves as 'vermin' using their necessity as their justification.

    NEVER forget...
    illegal immigrants ALL came from SOMEWHERE.
    A 'somewhere' where they COULD have joined together
    to make WHERE THEY WERE... 'better',
    than begging at YOUR doorstep for a portion of YOUR resources.

    Research Australia's strict immigration polices!

    there are 2 types of illegal immigrants 1 the one most people think about those who cross the boarder without using the ports of entry. The other are those who over stay there visas

    a refugee is someone fleeing from there country because there life in in danger like there gay and will be killed if they go back to there home country they do check into an immigration office and apply to refugee status If they did enter the country illegally they are illegal immigrants until they have gone through the refugee paper work and are accepted by the country they decided to flee too. This, of course does not include economics because your life is it in immediate danger, for example, the economy of Venezuela sucks, but that does not give them an excuse to come to the United States illegally, and it doesn’t give them refugee status. The job of the men coming from these countries is to start a revolution, destroy their government and rebuild it. Without the corruption.

    refugee is one who escape the war in his country so like Ukrainian, illegal immigrant are those who get out illegally from their country to go into another without filling any paper or anything while there's nothing dangerous about their countries.

    A refugee was driven from their home because of a natural disaster or war.

    Illegal immigrants cross borders looking for work, to find opportunities, or commit crime.

      Couldn’t an economic downturn be a disaster? Forcing people to look for work to feed their families?

      I just think that is a different beast altogether. We have a global economy. It is pretty hard for most nations not to feel and share problems of inflation, employment, and shrinking GDP.

      As much as trumpaneze clamor about isolation, it simply does not work in this age.

    An illegal immigrants is somebody too stupid or lazy to claim that they are seeking asylum from a violent country. Evidently they were sleeping when Biden's people handed out the handbook on how to run a fake asylum scam.

      Trump ended it but Biden brought it back. Maybe not legally but he has defunded the border patrol and made it impossible for them to do their jobs. So the continue to flood the border with illegal alliens and fentanyl.

      Did he? I thought the tried and right wing judges blocked it. Either way, in your answer it comes down to applying for asylum then.

    Isn’t a refugee somebody that was forced out of their country and had to leave their country because of that because they have no choice but an immigrant is someone who actually just left their country for a better life

      I guess what does “forced out” mean? Like war zones don’t tell people to leave. They just bomb your house.
