I'm not referring to people who have lived here their whole lives but more the problem of people coming here currently who have ties to drug cartels and gangs.
But we're not talking about them. The DREAM Act wouldn't help them. That aside, what percentage of Mexican immigrants do you think has ties to drug cartels?
There are some immigrants who get paid to be a drug mule or some who have a family member who is in a gang and did them a favor to get them over the border.
If people become drug mules, it's because they are desperate. It's not like it pays millions, and you become a peon in a very dangerous world who is expected to hide packets of drugs inside of your body, knowing that they could potentially burst and sicken or kill you, and getting medical attention is nigh impossible because you'll get caught. You also face reprisals by rival drug gangs. Again, these are not things people do for shits and giggles; they do them because they need to feed their families. They have no other options.
However, if the U.S. provided an easier route to citizenship for impoverished immigrants, we wouldn't have as many problems. Actually, if the U.S. stopped fucking over poor Latin Americans and using their economies as experimental labs for their economic theories, and actually gave some humanitarian aid and helped to rebuild the economy in positive ways in Mexico and other Latin American countries, then maybe Latin American immigrants wouldn't need to come here. They could live happy and prosperous lives in their home countries with all their family and friends and their home culture, which is what most people want.
And again, what percentage of undocumented immigrants do you think came here because they have ties with the drug cartels?
There is a mjor problem with drug wars in Mexico currently and drug cartels
That the U.S. and certain U.S. entities are partially responsible for
and the U.S. has been been trying in vain to stop it from spilling over across the border. It's part of the reason why the U.S. is trying to become so stringent on immigration control.

Well, that plus racism and xenophobia.
