Why do people think illegal aliens are criminals?

Immigration law is civil, not criminal. The Supreme Court has stated repeatedly that because Immigration law is not criminal, the Bill of Rights does not apply to immigration cases. Things would be very different if it did. I'm pretty tired of people saying that illegal aliens are criminals due to their immigration violations. If you're going to call them criminals, then at least apply the Bill of Rights. You can't have it both ways.

Answer:
Well. Actually they're terrorists. And should be treated as such.
The minute they took to our streets on May 1st 2006 and try to coerce the US government and its legal citizen population through force of authority made them terrorists. The Bill of Rights do not apply to these individuals. Thus that stunt they pulled can be construed as an unconventional(psychological and/or physical)warfare technique aimed at the infrastructure, government and its US citizen population. P.S. How well do you play CHESS?
Oh and in case you just didn't notice, I've established that yes in fact it can be both ways. Game of CHESS sometime?
no their not criminal's or terrorist's. their coming here to create a better life for themselves and their families.
who said we cant have it both ways? this is america, we can have it any way we see fit at that time, says so in the constitution, illegal is another word for criminal
I am glad that the U.S. is the land of opportunity, but I have to admit I get a little irked when I was looking for work in Cabo San Lucas and it said only Mexicans can be waitresses and hold a job at the desk of a motel as well as work on the beach. I mean talk about discrimination. Yet here in america a person from mexico or of hispanic origins can have preference over me if we apply for the same job. HMMMMMMMMMM? Well I am not racist in any way I might add as my grandmother was full blooded mexican but then she married my grandpa who was german and my mom is hispanic and germand and my dad 100 percent italian. How about everyone stop playing the race card and we all just get the same opportunity based on our skill or willingness to work hard? Now theres a novel concept. As for illegal aliens well you kind of answered your own question with your question. It is illegal to reside in the US with out obtaining citizenship. Same as most countries. Illegal alien key word "illegal" hence the thought that they are sriminals. Unfortunately it is what it is and that is a different world and since 9/11 it has to be dealt with more seriously as we have to start knowing who it is that is coming into our country now more than ever since a lot of the world does not like us as much as they used to.
