I have very rarely come across someone who believes in a middle ground when it comes to immigration: most either selectively leave out the word "illegal" or "legal" when speaking about the issue, painting a picture of perfectly friendly individuals who are being unjustly targeted for their race while attempting to find a better life or describe an equally selective scenario where drug dealers and rapists are being illegally forcing themselves into the United States in record numbers.
