I tend to wonder if immigrants don't have the right to come. We speak of unalienable rights. If they are truly unalienable, then they cannot be restricted by borders. If a person has certain unalienable rights in Mexico, they cannot taken away from him just because he crosses a border into the U.S. He has the right to life in the U.S., the right to liberty in the U.S., and the right to pursue happiness in the U.S. The U.S. government cannot take these rights away. And, it seems of all nations, the U.S. would be the last to try to take them away.
Unalienable rights are not terminated by crossing a border.
