To me - and anyone I ask - it's clear - we welcome legal immigration at a level higher than current legal limits - especially for those interested in joining our experiment in government and contributing to our pluralistic society. We abhor and wish to discontinue illegal immigration. For those here illegally, in some situations (children whose parents brought them here years ago or true asylum seekers) there must be a path to extended stay and some eventual form of citizenship. For many others, yes - they should be deported to their home country - especially if guilty of criminal activity in the US.
Hal,
Glad you're back and feeling well.
