depending upon where you live most likely matters most on the outcome of such a “poll”.

That's interesting. I live near Oxnard, birthplace of Cesar Chavez of United Farm Worker's fame. It's basically a Mexican town inside the U.S. and serves as a transit point for illegals to farm and other jobs here. There's a strong pro-illegal feeling locally but of course I haven't conducted a scientific "poll." I feel in my bones most have more loyalty to Mexico or "Aztlan" than to America. I hope your sense of things is the correct one.

It really all depends upon who you “poll” and where. In Escondido the overwhelming majority of citizens are illegals who have made their way north of the border, yet the next town over, San Marcos, is a mixture of legal immigrants and natural born Latinos along with the standard demographics in Southern CA. Hard working “Latinos” who were either born here or emigrated here long ago have a significantly different outlook concerning the “immigration issue” than self serving Caucasian self haters and apologists who fawn over “Latinos” with false empathy in their haste to ingratiate themselves with said immigrants. It's a sight to behold when you comprehend what's going on and many of them have no use for “Gringos” with such attitudes.

That being said, most legal immigrants are hard working Americans who have integrated nicely with our society but by and large they are vastly outnumbered by illegals who have been welcomed by the left simply for their votes and the difference in attitudes and posture is striking from my POV.
