People can go to amazing lengths to accomplish something if they want it bad enough, so no matter how strict it was to legally immigrate to the U.S., we would still be dealing with bombs in Times Square.

You said yourself that the problem in NY is not the same as in AZ, and you’re right. The idea of making immigration requirements less strict is mainly to deter foreigners from climbing over the fence. Logically, if the requirements are simple enough, they will choose to go about it in a legitimate way.

Now, if this is a good thing or a bad thing I don’t know….to an extent, I agree with you that the immigration laws should not become too laxed, simply because we will end up with the same problem we have now. But something needs to happen that will change the perspectives of those 200 illegal immagrants sneaking over the border and cutting off the 100 legal immigrants waiting for their rightly earned entrance into the country.

I don’t necessarily think things need to change as much as the laws that already exist need to be enforced.
