I don't think illegal immigrants will topple the United States. But that doesn't mean I don't think it is an issue to be addressed. A lot of people have been focusing on it for a very long time, I don't see their efforts as invalid just because it took a decade to get press attention.
If I use a flimsy lock on my garage and some teenager moves in there, at what point am I obligated to call him son?
And I too have driven across the United States many times. I suppose we could ship all of the illegal immigrants to Wyoming but what exactly would they do there? There's a reason they mostly end up in our big cities. Saying that they don't cause a crowding problem in LA because there is a lot of room in North Dakota isn't addressing the issue.
