suggest 1/4 of 2018's legal immigrants were Mexican to be precise. China and India were the biggest countries for immigrants ahead of Mexico that year, and I believe that trend has been in place for a little while. Comparatively, through '18, Europe and Canada combined makes up just 13% of all legal immigrants vs. Mexico's 25%. Not saying that's bad or wrong, just that it kind of shoots a hole in the silly "we don't want the browns" claims.

Also, I've seen estimates as high as 70+% of all legal immigrants coming in come via the chain/family migration avenue. I'm not saying family members here shouldn't be considered for acceptance, it should, but that gives no consideration for skills, or even being of working age/ability, while also putting downward pressure on the spots that will be made available for the very issue CMU brought up.

No, when you come here knowing you'll fly through the initial screening, only to be released within the country, all while knowing full well you're very unlikely to be granted asylum, it might be legal, but you're knowingly abusing the asylum system.
