So one of two things.

We must embrace anarchy or we must be grateful for whatever leniency, if any, is given to us. If we choose the latter then it seems odd to name call King. He is just applying the law.
There's something wrong with you. Wasn't it you defending the study that concluded white people were smarter than Hispanics? Think critically.

What's wrong with what you said here? Well, one you said it yourself, our parents brought us here. Kids can't be punished for breaking the law(more on this later) because they aren't fully aware of what their actions will result in, a lot of times not aware of what's happening at all.

Now let's argue semantics. Anarchy leans towards being a bad thing. Complete absence of law, or completely ignoring laws, resulting in chaos. This is not the right word for your argument. Most people come to the U.S because they like what most of the laws collectively accomplish, even though no single law is always just. Laws are there to keep order, however laws are made by lawmakers, and history teaches us about people abusing this position.

So now, are kids to be punished by laws? Is it not right to try to change laws to accommodate better ones? Is it not right to do so with the added benefit of strengthening the country?

If you're close minded or have hate in your heart you will follow "the rule of law" no matter what.
If you think critically you will see things differently.
