We currently accept some 300,000 legal each year! Perhaps a solution would be to increase that number.
It is estimated that some 500,000 illegally cross each year!
So if we increase the "quota" to 800,000 or even 1,000,000 might that not be a way to correct the problem.

Yes. It's actually already a crime to be in the country ILLEGALLY

No. The police have to be in action already (stop someone for speeding, for instance) and also have probable cause to investigate whether or not the person they have already stopped FOR ANOTHER REASON is in the country illegally.

Yes

No. There are thousands who come to America legally. They study and work hard at becoming legal citizens. Why negate all their hard work and also open the door for even more illegals? (We grant amnesty and our borders will be bombarded with more illegals hoping for future amnesty)

They are much harsher than simply asking for proof of legal alien status and deportation.

That's like a candy store without doors in a neighborhood of unruly children
I like that analogy!!
