North Korea isn't currently invading us, Mexico is.

To be fair: more Mexicans are leaving the US and going home than their kind coming here, legally or illegally.

More and more of at least "Hispanic" illegals crossing through Mexico to get here are from further down in LatAm in 2017.

Well that's what the claim is by the left. I'm not a believer. Doesn't matter anyway if they are Mexican or not we still have many illegals coming through our southern border. If it's less, it's still a sizeable number.

Why are you here if it bothers you so much? Imagine a world where immigration laws are enforced, I know that's a mind boggling idea to an Obama supporter.

If a country has "Open Borders" it ceases to be a country, and becomes just a territory with stuff in it. The Democrats don't want the U.S. to be a sovereign nation run my legal citizens. They want the New World Order, One World Government Globalization where citizens have no say, but the elite few get to run everything. That's why we have guns.

I know I'd be angry as hell, and I think several others here would be, too. I am completely opposed to open borders. So no, I'd be protesting (or as you say, "complaining") even more.

Imagine a world where everyone obeys the laws of the Countries they immigrate to. That would be awesome.
Indians would imagine that world where europeans didn't kill them to found an invasive country.

My thought has been that the ones being caught and turned around are probably those less familiar with crossing than the Mexicans who come in. Mexicans will be better at not getting caught, and I suspect that account for much of the visa overstayers.

They were pouring in from everywhere when amnesty was being discussed, I could see it before my very eyes. Much more noticeable in a smaller city.

I don't care where they come from, or how they come here, just that we do the catch up and send them "home".
