Millions, thousands, hundreds whatever. The point is people from other countries are wanting to come here and they are waiting to do so legally! And does a law being a misdemeanor mean it is no longer a law? Or is it one of those laws that its ok to break or something; my breakable laws cliff notes havent been updated.

We need to get past "they're all lawbreakers." It's not helping to move anything along. As long as those who want to hold onto this all or nothing notion of crime and punishment and tie that to the notion of amnesty, nothing will happen. The U.S. government will never be able to round up, much less deport the 12-20 million undocumented immigrants in this country. We must work toward some kind of comprehensive reform and that is going to include providing some kind of program for the people already here.
