Rudy Gialliano supports illegal aliens?

Rudy says illegal aliens are not criminals and he supported making New York a safe haven for them. Now he wants to be our president; will this not open the doors to those who want to enter our country illegally? If he supports their presence here and he says they are not criminals how can we expect him to provide the leadership to stop the illegals and prosecute those who are hiring, hiding and encouraging their illegal entry!
