There are many reasons to want to step up on existing immigration law and border patrol. "This country was founded on legal immigration" is not one of them.

Yep...exactly.
All too many conveniently forget, or purposely ignore, that this country was actually founded/built by
"immigrants" who didn't have to do anything more than show up...and use superior force to subjugate those who had been here for thousands of years.
While we definitely have to have some sensible immigration laws, I truly believe that the biggest fear of a lot of folks is that the unstated adage of
"white + might = right"...might be slipping away.
