For immigrant families with U.S. born children: Shold the parents be given a chance to obtain citizenship or should the child be deported with the parents?

Sure. Why not. If they can pass the citizenship test, then they know enough about the country they live in.

Bottom line is they broke the law, though. If they would have killed someone, the family would have been broken up, as they'd be in prison.

@Tatsumi True, but even I am descendant of immigrants.

@Adam1985 I don't know the history of immigration, but regardless, the bottom line still stands. They could have imigrated legally, but they didn't.

Just because I'm [probably] decended from killers, doesn't mean that other people killing is justified.
