abiding immigrants who were dutifully following the rules of the immigration process.......

.....your statement sounds really nice. Until you think about what it will do to the legal immigration process if these people are allowed to successfully just jump in without doing all of the process and vetting that others had to do. That process is critical to our well being as a country.

I do agree that if they have committed no other crimes, then some sort of naturalization process should be considered - especially since the Democrats literally tempted and encouraged them to break the law (but they knew what they were doing).
Whatever that consideration is, it cannot be easier or the same in difficulty as those who have been waiting for much longer and are following the legal process. I've got a few ideas, but I don't feel like getting into it right now (sorry, just tired).

But the next time someone cuts the line at a movie or an airport or a sporting event, etc.....remember how it makes you feel, and remember how much of a bigger of a deal it is what they did, and how it will affect those who were trying to follow the law, and how it will affect those who will be asked to follow it in the future..

What the BidenHandlers did was evil. It's solution is not at all easy, and they bear responsibility for it as they wring their hands and cry out as people roll up their sleeves to do the hard work to fix their mess (I told DFH something similar last night on a related issue).
BidenHandlers had only one reason to stop enforcing border laws - they wanted the votes. And shenanigans aside in various states, their overall plan was to grant everyone amnesty and then have the economically dependent votes to maintain power for the foreseeable future.
That didn't happen, and it's not economically possible unless the entire population is willing to except far, far more limited healthcare and no social security benefits left to be received.

I want to balance fairness and legal necessity with compassion. I am not in charge, but that is how I see it. As usual, Dems cause a massive problem, and then bitch that others aren't fixing it to their satisfaction (which of course is only achieved if they get their way).
