You say, The Constitution applies only to US citizens. That the Constitution does not apply to illegal immigrants. This is ridiculous on its face. By what definition and authority are these immigrants illegal then? It's pretty easy to understand what makes them immigrants. They were there, they are here.... not so tough.
But you insist on calling them illegal, implying that there's some law that they're breaking. How can they break a law that doesn't apply to them?

Plenty of people who come here are subject to our laws, tourists from anywhere. If they break a law here they are subject to penalty, and deportation. The illegal immigrants who cross the border illegally have broken laws by doing so. Just because you step foot in the US does not give you all the rights afforded our Constitution. That is where this whole thread started with me. Just because you are here does not make you an American citizen. Tourists, visitors, illegal aliens, and even documented aliens are not American citizens.
