Does a person have a right to break into a house and take it over as their own? No we put people in jail for that. If a person does it the legal way, becomes a citizen and then earns enough money to buy a house then he has the right to live in the country of their choice if it is allowed.
How many countries allow you to break in and live there for free?

He babbles nonsense in threads all day long. He may not have a job. I think he's just looking for attention.
That aside, a great place to begin that discussion is with the fact that God established the nation of Israel with clearly defined borders as a separate people from the surrounding pagan nations.

Are you serious ? Because they are ILLEGAL. And if they are illegal, they steal from the rest of us by reaping the benefits without pitching in... in the form of paying taxes... and send 75% of their income back to Mexico and out of the local US economy.
If someone want to become a US citizen they need to do it legally.

Oops! All of Tennessee’s Employment Growth Since 2000 Has Gone to Immigrants, Yet Natives Accounted for Two-Thirds of Population Growth: Who Got the Jobs in Tennessee? | Center for Immigration Studies
"Center for Immigration Studies Research Director Steven Camarota wondered how, given these statistics, anyone in the state could back any initiative that invites even more immigrants to compete for jobs.
BUT THE PROBLEM IN TENNESSEE SIMPLY REFLECTS THE SERIOUS AND GROWING PROBLEM THAT EXISTS ACROSS THE NATION: All Employment Growth Since 2000 Went to Immigrants | Center for Immigration Studies
Government data show that since 2000 all of the net gain in the number of working-age (16 to 65) people holding a job has gone to immigrants (legal and illegal). This is remarkable given that native-born Americans accounted for two-thirds of the growth in the total working-age population. Though there has been some recovery from the Great Recession, there were still fewer working-age natives holding a job in the first quarter of 2014 than in 2000, while the number of immigrants with a job was 5.7 million above the 2000 level.
All of the net increase in employment went to immigrants in the last 14 years partly because, even before the Great Recession, immigrants were gaining a disproportionate share of jobs relative to their share of population growth. In addition, natives' losses were somewhat greater during the recession and immigrants have recovered more quickly from it. With 58 million working-age natives not working, the Schumer-Rubio bill (S.744) and similar House measures that would substantially increase the number of foreign workers allowed in the country seem out of touch with the realities of the U.S. labor market.
Three conclusions can be drawn from this analysis:
AND PAY ATTENTION as 59% of these SAME IMMIGRANTS SIGNED UP FOR WELFARE: Welfare Use by Immigrant Households with Children | Center for Immigration Studies
So immigrants took almost all new job growth in the U.S. AND more than half of them simultaneously signed up for welfare.
The reason they could do this is because new job growth in the U.S. is largely very low paying. The U.S. isn't creating many good paying jobs anymore.
Well, I have to go back to work to pay for their welfare. Chow.
"Center for Immigration Studies Research Director Steven Camarota wondered how, given these statistics, anyone in the state could back any initiative that invites even more immigrants to compete for jobs.
'It’s remarkable that any political leader in Tennessee would support legislation that would increase the number of foreign workers allowed into the country,” he said, “given the relatively weak job growth in the state and the large share of working-age people not working.'
The organization included a few other telling statistics, including a 176 percent increase in the state’s immigrant population during the same 14-year period during which employment dropped among native-born citizens.
'This undermines the argument that immigration increases job opportunities for natives,' the report concluded."

Three conclusions can be drawn from this analysis:
- First, the long-term decline in the employment for natives across age and education levels is a clear indication that there is no general labor shortage, which is a primary justification for the large increases in immigration (skilled and unskilled) in the Schumer-Rubio bill and similar House proposals.
- Second, the decline in work among the native-born over the last 14 years of high immigration is consistent with research showing that immigration reduces employment for natives.
- Third, the trends since 2000 challenge the argument that immigration on balance increases job opportunities for natives. Over 17 million immigrants arrived in the country in the last 14 years, yet native employment has deteriorated significantly.
