Dreamers march 250 miles to rally in Washington DC then are arrested outside city limits

From NYC to Washington DC, is actually 226 miles, and marching has a specific definition, and the article at the Gateway Pundit does not support the suggestion they were all arrested. Only six were arrested for blocking traffic.
“I walked 250 miles to the Capitol and passed through many communities that opened their homes to us. And yet now that we are here, Congress has closed their door,” said Aldo Solano, a DACA recipient from Oregon and one of the arrested protesters. “The undocumented community cannot wait for Congress to catch up to our lives!”
How can I even talk to you?

It's not about you and your plight. It's not about citizens opening their doors to you but Congress not doing what you demand.

How old are you? Under thirty-one? Because that is the first large scale amnesty that I know about. And that means your parents slipped into this country and squatted here illegally and birthed you and your siblings who now claim citizenship after that sweeping amnesty and through the subsequent ones. They were aware of the problems they were creating and left it to the nation to resolve. They wanted to be part of a nation of laws by simply coming here and skipping the whole citizenship process. And then insist they are law-abiding citizens in all respects except for the entry that cannot even be mentioned. Democrats erased all that from their vocabulary and substituted other words to accommodate that very serious discrepancy such that the mayor of Oakland claims her "citizens" are law-abiding. How can I talk to you when we cannot even agree on this essential first principle?

You speak in emotional language while the solution is legal. Legality requires precise language and you cannot have that. Granting yet another amnesty invites more of the same that your parents did.  By being here you change the nature of the thing you wish to be a part, a nation of laws.

Finally, try reversing all this and see how far I'll get by squatting in Mexico so long that I have children there, and later my children claiming citizenship by virtue of them being born there, for them and their extended families.

We need immigrants perhaps a little bit smarter than this.

We need smarter so called "News" organizations too. A while back one of them interviewed a so called Dreamer. He looked over 30 and spoke with an accent thicker than Jose Jimenez, claiming it would be unfair to send him to a country he had not grown up in. UH. That would be the USA Jose!
