These people are running away, not just going for a trip. They can't sit back where they are and wait for the process to complete.
These people are not attacking our borders in any way whatsoever.
We don't have to pick and chose who to help. No one is suggesting immigrants should take precedence over homeless europeans. Absolutely no one is suggesting that.
No one is supporting illegal immigration. What you're talking of, however, is not illegal immigration.
No one is saying illegal immigrants are refugees. Refugees and immigrants have every right to choose which country they want to settle in. There is nothing illegal about that.
There is nothing mad about that.
Bottom line is your arguments are based on red herrings and misunderstanding.
Population growth is a positive thing. The only problem we have is lack of integration
1: entering a country without proper legal documents (e.g. visa, asylum) is an illegal entry, thus a crime. It is a legal fact, not an ideological.
2: it is absolutely both legally and ideologically wrong to assume that any citizen of any country in the world can decide to live in another country of the world, because he wants to. If they want to, they have to ask for permission in the given country (e.g. apply for visa or asylum), but staying in their home country, whilst the process is ongoing. If they are granted permission, they can migrate, but only then.
3: many Afghans, Syrians, etc. cross many borders before they reach Europe. According to international definition, countries, such as Azerbaijan, Armenia, Turkey are safe countries. Why not staying there? Once reaching Europe, why not staying in Bulgaria, Romania, Serbia, North Macedonia, Montenegro, Albania, etc.? Because they are not refugees, seeking shelter, but economic migrants.
4: illegal immigration is wrong and harmful
