Most of the people that raise hell aren't illegal immigrants, but people that are stopped because "well you look illegal so prove you're not, or we're kicking you out". That's all sorts of illegal and unconstitutional. As for voting, we already have measures in place to REGISTER to vote that require proof of citizenship. What you're actually wanting to go after is absentee voting, but it's always at the booth measures.. hmm..
Because that's not a law, nor is it likely to become one when the basis of it tends to be "you're brown, so i need to check if you're illegal because you look like those mexican people", as it has been shown to have been used recently.
Additionally, it has a shitload of negative historical connotations stretching back to.. rome, and probably even before that actually.
Look at Stalinist Russia for how carrying citizenship papers can go wrong.

Thank your boss for creating a reason for illegals to be here... God forbid you report your boss, when you can bitch about those coming for the job he provides...

Not even remotely what was being alluded to.
The question posed by the OP was "What's wrong with offending illegal immigrants?" To which I responded with legality (Their being illegal) and morality (offending someone) being different.
I'm not asking to make everyone legal, I'm asking for people to stop being raging cunts to immigrants.
Can't really comment. In Australia our government just pays the people smugglers to do a round trip...
</sarcasm, just in case>
OT: They are people and you should treat them as such. If you want to protect your borders the solution to your problem was pretty much summed up above. Stop business from getting away with employing people under the table and your problem goes away.
