>> A) They're building more prisons specifically to fill with immigrants

Correction: They're building more prisons specifically to fill with ILLEGAL immigrants. The vast majority of whom have committed crimes while here.

If you have a problem with criminals being put in jail then you have a much bigger problem with your moral compass.

Those in the US without documentation (a valid visa, green card, citizenship, etc.) are not criminals. The vast majority are folks who overstayed their visas. Doing so is not a crime. It's a civil tort. That's the law in the US.

Why are you advocating breaking the law by treating non-criminals like criminals?
