if a young adult has been raised in America since a young child of say four years old, when their parents snuck into the u.s., would you advocate this person be deported? even if they have never been to mexico & don't speak spanish?

Either we are a nation of laws that apply equally to all persons at all times or we are an Orwellian nation where "some animals are more equal than others".

The law says to deport them, so we deport them.

The question implies we should give some people special favors because someone else broke the law. I respectfully disagree.

Addendum: At 20 years old they most certainly KNOW of their illegal status given trying to find a summer job, trying to get a GED, etc. Also, in a Mexican family, there is 0% chance they don't speak any Spanish and a close-to-zero chance they have never been to Mexico. Many of the schools up here have problems with families packing up for Mexico - for six months at a time - so the kids never graduate anyhow.

Further, assuming this individual has graduated high school at 18 as is normal, there has been two years passed in which that person has been a legal adult and able to take advantage of numerous visa programs. I know of at least one foreign student who spent 15 years in the US on a student visa collecting diplomas before getting a work visa (for five years) and then marrying a US citizen.

There is no reason whatsoever to cut any slack here given that this hypothetical individual has multiple avenues to adjust status AND is of the age of majority AND very likely would have run into issues already.

Community colleges can do student visas. There is no rational explanation why this hypothetical individual is still an illegal alien except for laziness on the part of the individual given the multiple ways in which status can be adjusted. If memory serves, status can be adjusted by means of Military Service so there is another avenue that can be pursued.
