Politics has intruded it's ugly head in the issue of the Mexican border. Politicians debate the issue of who crosses and why and when and where and, perhaps most importantly, what happens to them when they are in this country.
There's one main issue that is argued daily, yet it's the most basic one to consider. Keep in mind that if people cross at will, on their own, into the United States and stay here for as long as they want – they become, by definition, "illegal aliens."
Keep in mind, too, that those two words are traditional, legal words to describe a person who has broken our border law.
