>Illegal immigration is the migration of people into a country in violation of that country's immigration laws, or the continuous residence in a country without the legal right to.

I wonder if the pilgrim fathers took time to discover the immigration laws from the native Americans.

Sigh: "a person whose behaviour is in willful, criminal violation of the immigration laws". "illegal immigrant" is just shorthand for the adults.

What you are trying to do is to imply that a) no country may control their immigration using legislation, b) any attempt to do so is immoral.

If you truly believe that we are all just wanderers on this planet, then motivate publicly a for private members bill (or equivalent) to explicitly rescind all immigration laws and their enforcement.

But you know that's futile, so you push this polemic to discourage the enforcement of the laws that are on the books.

Which is also how you get far-right populists.

By that logic, no such thing as illegal guns. Only "undocumented"!

Also, "undocumented" drugs, buildings, etc.
