Compassion has been addressed to some extent. How about the details of the executive order. Does it apply to all 11 million in the US? No! Does it provide voting cards? No! Do the 4 million get access to the Affordable Care Act? No! Do they now have the ability to work legally and pay taxes? Yes!
As for states who allow illegal immigrants to obtain driver licenses, good! They, like other non-licensed drivers, will most likely drive anyhow. I would much rather have them licensed and insured if they are on the roads.
If they, like any drug dealer or criminal gets arrested, put them in prison and then, if illegal, deport them after serving their time.
I was told an analogy once about the US being a melting pot. It used to be like an overcooked soup where everything was blended together so all the ingredients tasted the same. Now, it it like a flavorful stew where chunks and pieces all have some of their original flavor but come together for a wonderful tasting new dish.
