I'm sure there are as many reasons as people, but I would guess one common thread might be that the ones who came here legally resent the ones that broke the law to come here.

If somebody's family came from Cuba on a tire raft, does that most likely mean they did not come over legally?

No, it doesn't. If they came before 2017, they were legal the instant their tire raft touched US soil.
