many natural born citizens don't respect our laws. for all the illegals in prison, there is still a majority of native born americans in jail. the bulk of immigrants (legal and illegal) come here for a chance at a better life. and not really for themselves but for their kids. they work their asses off in low paying shit jobs to provide enough for their family to allow their children to live the "american dream."
are there some who come here and break the law? of course. but there's always going to be a percentage that breaks the law in any group/class.
and that majority that just comes to work, work hard. they are part of our economy. and they just want something better in life.
as a christian i would think you could look upon them with sympathy and compassion. that you could have love for your fellow man and be happy that you are given freely what these people are willing to literally clean up shit to get a crack at.
what would Jesus do about illegal immigrants? what would he suggest you do? here's the point where you can be the good kind of christian who looks to make the world a better place and live by Jesus' message, or you can be the bad kind of christian who bitches about strangers and puts hatred and anger out in the world.

Bow ties are coool.
