They can't keep them out so what, we give them the keys to the city?

This would be a good time for you to let your representative know how you feel.

I am first generation born in America for my mother's family (German) and 2nd generation for my father's family (Norwegian, Finish). They all immigrated legally and had to be sponsored by Americans in order to come to this country. I have no problem with immigrating legally and trying to work for a good life.

Legal is fine, we are a nation of immigrants.
But to give the illegals the same without due process just because they can't control our borders is a crime.

Not ready to accept that we can't control our borders, as I feel it is more likely that we are unwilling to accept the monetary and practical implications of the measures needed for "compliance". It would be nice if we got some help from Mexico, but that relationship seems to be a one way street, in every sense. Then there are the political implications, where we have to ensure proper manipulation of the voting blocs. 
It's no wonder nothing ever gets done. There are many migratory workers here working the fields, and the vast majority are more hard-working, more respectful, and more peace loving than many US citizens. Unfortunately, we are in desperate need of desperate measures, because the trash coming across the boarder includes a segment of dangerous Central American gang members (puppets of the cartels) now costing us billions to house in our prison system; thanks Mexico.

Our southern borders are not our only borders and there is always a way around borders.
It's the services that they receive but do not pay for that is a burden.
It would be very easy to issue work visa's and collect taxes if the system wasn't broken so badly.
They can go through the same process as anyone else to become citizens, starting with learning basic english, and obeying our laws.
Political implications, you said a mouthful there.

You should see what I had to go through to live and work in Mexico when I was a jockey.

Canada can control their borders pretty darned well, which are far longer than out southern border. Why can't we? No freebies when you cross the northern border into Canada illegally, so why bother?
