Anecdotal perhaps, but I have a disproportionate number of interactions with illegal immigrants, and I’d say 9 out of 10 of them get here and work their asses off for everything they have. They are loyal to their families, they put in honest hard work in occupations you couldn’t force some people to do, and they get nothing in return except to be villainized by half the country. More often than not, they are the victims of crime, not the perpetrators. That may not be represented in statistics because they typically don’t call for help out of fear for their citizenship status. They are constantly mistreated and victimized, and all they do in return is get up and go to work.
