What I don’t get is why LEGAL immigrants want to support ILLEGAL immigrants who are probably affecting their financial and job prospects far more. Having more workers compete with you if you are legal doesn’t help you and I’d assume legal immigrants (Mexican, Asian, whoever) should be against all the freebees you see bantered about. Maybe it’s your family, but legal immigrants can bring them in legally as well…I don’t get this point.

Well if you’re talking about immediate family, maybe.
But extended family and friends, no legal immigrants can’t.
And this is why legal immigrants support illegal immigrants, from my observations. They are just like everyone else – they prefer to be surrounded by their family and friends.
