To an extent, I agree. However, there is a portion (how large I do not know) that believes that the Southwestern US actually belongs to Mexico.
As far as demonizing legal immigrants, the only place I see a blurring of the lines is by these protesters themselves. Most refuse to talk about the problem for what it is, being illegal immigration. Most always refer to it as an immigration protest, leaving the word illegal out of it.
This is not a debate about legal immigration. Protesters are trying to equate what is legal and what is not.
