A common technique used by illegal immigration sympathizers is to artfully conflate the two for argument's sake.

A common technique used by racists is to pretend they are only care about illegal immigration.
Which is interesting when coupled with the fact that the people enthusiastically carrying that out is CBP agents (the people that murdered Pretti) at 50% latino/hispanic, and ICE also disproportionately latino. Why are minorities so overrepresented in the racist forces?
"Murder" is a very specific form of homicide and is both legally and morally unlikely to be the correct term here.
Ok. Homicidal racist forces, disproportionately manned by minorities, who want to stomp on other minorities.
Imagine waiting in line for a decade, going through a grueling process, following the rules and immigrating legally, only to show up and see hordes of criminal invaders who thought they were exempt from the same.
Why do that. Just get popped out by an illegal on US soil. boom, you are a citizen, and you can join the border patrol and smugly declare "ha you didn't wait in line."
