If I leave a package of cookies on my counter and I come home to find a trail of ants consuming it, what should I do?
You're equating illegal immigrants, who are human beings regardless of their legal status, with an infestation of ants now?

No, I'm presenting a situation for illustrative purposes.

Cookies are an incentive for ants to enter my house. Jobs are an incentive for illegals to break the law and enter my country. I certainly don't suggest we start spraying raid in random illegals' faces. That would just be rude.

Certainly not, the ants belong here.

Even ants are immigrants. And earth worms. And bees. And diseases. We need more quotas.
