Well said. Having thought about this a bit more I've realized that the illegal status that bothers me is his lack of license and insurance. The legality of his residency is irrelevant.
For the record, I do get sick and tired of seeing illegal aliens reaping the benefits of our system. On the other hand, I have a lot of respect for the guys that are out there working their butts off trying to make a better life for themselves and their families. It would be much better if gaining legal status were made a quicker (not easier) process.
