When it comes to immigration, I’ve noticed something interesting: the people who often dislike illegal immigration the most are those of us who came to the United States legally. I say this from personal experience. I went through the process, followed the requirements, and earned the right to stay here. It wasn’t always easy—it took time, patience, paperwork, and a commitment to do things by the book.

 

That’s why it feels so unfair when others try to bypass the rules. Imagine playing a game where you follow every rule, make every move carefully, and put in the effort to win honestly. Now imagine watching someone else cut corners, break the rules, and still walk away with the prize. That doesn’t just feel wrong—it undermines the very idea of fairness.

 

Immigration to the U.S. is a privilege, not a shortcut. Those of us who respected the system understand the value of doing it right. We know the sacrifices it takes, and because of that, we also understand why the rules matter. If we allow cheating, it diminishes the hard work and commitment of everyone who did it properly.

 

At the end of the day, the frustration isn’t about wanting to exclude people. It’s about respect—respect for the law, respect for the system, and respect for everyone who played the game the right way.
