@michaelbishell7563 Most of their arguments are total nonsense.
Drugs!: Over 90% of drugs are seized at points of entry. Over 80% of drug traffickers are Americans. Little to do with the undocumented crossers.
Replacement!: The vast majority are descended from European Spaniards, Native Americans, or both, and almost all are Christians. Descendants of European colonizers can't really be "replaced" by other European colonizers, or natives.
Space! Jobs!: The same people arguing there are plenty enough jobs and space, for hundreds of thousands of extra unwanted babies per year. Johnson even argued they're needed, to keep SS and Medicare afloat. The same argument would apply to immigrants.
Cheap labor!: Florida decided it's no problem, for children to compete for full time jobs, at 85% of minimum wage.
Crime!: They can spew some anecdotes, but undocumented immigrants commit crimes at half the rate of natural born citizens. The undocumented actually try harder to stay out of trouble, so they aren't deported.
