That is because they are criminals and chose to break our laws (definition of criminal). Of course, once they reach our border they are welcomed with gifts/benefits paid for by taxpayers like these displaced victims of the flooding.
The folks in WNC are citizens of this nation and they and their parents, grandparents, etc. have likely paid taxes their entire lives here, fought for our armed services, etc. They helped build our nation. I do not see the parallel to those that come to break our laws.
