Your ancestors came in legally, most likely through Ellis Island. Those
with criminal records, illnesses or infirmaries were rejected and
returned to the ships to be taken back. They did not sneak in like is
going on today. These people are not legal immigrants but are illegal
aliens.

There are a lot of US citizens with criminal records, illnesses, or
infirmaries. When I see them being rounded up and removed from the country
I'll be more inclined to look at rejecting immigrants with those
'qualities'.
