I know this could be controversial, but in some countries immigration is quite a problem, there isn't enough work for everyone and the crime just gets higher an higher plus they do it illegally, not quite the same even though I get y'all sentiment
Immigrants induce demand for goods and services just like anyone else, thus the jobs to render those goods and services.
Technically depends on the country but this is usually false.
Law is not morality. Perhaps it shouldn't be illegal.
I always hated the legal argument. No landmass was ever historically conquered /populated / taken over / whatever through "legal immigration" except by indigenous peoples of those lands. These immigrants are trying to find better lives for themselves and their families and it's horrible that people refuse to show any empathy for their struggles or dreams
