You don't enter through a legal port of entry, fill out the legal paperwork, go through the legal process, you entered illegally and are rightfully put back to the end of the line to start over legally if you have no ill intent.

Try doing that in Japan, Germany, Peru, Morocco as a US Citizen and see how far that gets you.
