And with no gestapo needed! That's the difference.

a person cannot "be illegal". they can perform acts which are illegal, sure, but to call them "illegals" is just dehumanizing rhetoric that adds absolutely nothing to the discussion.

What's so hard about naturalizing or legalizing them, so that they can more easily interact with current power structures on the territory?

Capital city in the country where I live got a 25% population bump over a few months a few years back, of people who didn't even speak the language. Barely anything appretiably negative overall happened.
