The really simple truth is that it is wrong to blame
illegals. ?They react; they respond to demand, no more.

So, if there's a high enough demand for bread in my family, it's ok for
me to steal a loaf? Just reacting, you see -- responding to a demand...

If by "high enough demand" you mean starvation, then yes.
This is a fairly remote justification these days, but if you
know someone who was alive during the "Grapes of Wrath"
days, why not ask them? As far as I am concerned, the
taking of anything to ensure the immediate survival of
myself or any other person is fully justifiable.

Oh, no, not this "moral relativism" argument again!

Actually, this is as close to an absolute as I come.
I cannot think of a single set of circumstances where
property rights trump survival, the preservation of life.
