Often times it seems that when the topic of illegal immigration arises the illegal part is omitted in conversation. Making it seem what is being opposed is immigration itself. Which is untrue. That's what garners the accusation of xenophobe, etc.... from those that don't seem to understand the difference. 

Yes - and that is by design, I believe.

It muddies the waters, and makes finding a solution all the more difficult.  In other words, politics.

I was actually referring to how you lumped all the fast food workers together as being illegal immigrants. 

Sounds more like just looking to pick a leftist let's play the victim fight after reading the thread, but that's just me. I also live in an area with a huge illegal problem, and quite a few of my immigrant neighbors (who did it the right way) have a really nasty opinion of the illegals. I've lived and worked internationally and when I'm in another country they want me to abide by their laws. Amazing. That makes so much sense! 

Are all fast food workers illegals? Of course not. Straw man argument. I have zero sympathy for anyone who got fired over their "protest" because if they were not illegal themselves they were supporting those who were. "If the shoe fits wear it."

Yes, the Left conflates those who are illegal and those who are legal.   For the Left, if you are opposed to illegal aliens, you are "anti-immigration."   They can't win the argument in an honest manner.

Note that they also change from "illegal immigrant"  to "undocumented immigrant."   They remove the word "illegal"  so they don't have to deal with the morality inherent in the word, "illegal."    It allows them to play on and manipulate people, emotionally.  that's something the left has gotten really good at.

And yet undocumented is still a reference to that which is illegally living in this country.  

Maybe the conflation of terms on the part of the left hand path is an indicator it is they that are xenophobic. Being they refuse to recognize the difference between those that are in compliance with the law. And those immigrants who refuse.
