I hope ya'll realize that they have been using the number 12 million for close to 6 years now. Anyone with a brain knows that even if that number was correct 6 years ago, and it wasn't of course, the number has surely increased. 12 million is by no means an accurate estimate either. It is probably closer to more than 20 million. Those illegals have been, and still are, invading this country by the thousands each and every week. |

I think we are seeing about a million coming over every four or five months. Of course that doesn't include the ones that are overstaying legal visas and such.

I don't know if it's that many, but any amount is definitely not good. |

I'm sorry to break the news, but people will come over in any way possible. It must be terrifying going through a tunnel. Their home countries economies are awful.

I believe that we have better ideas than you do when it comes to the amount of illegals. At least all of us know that the number of 12 million has been used for about 6 years now and that more illegals hav e invaded the country since they started using that number. Anyone with a brain knows these facts.

that is not a valid argument. i want to see credible sources. if you cant provide them, that says alot about your "truths". |

You haven't provided any credible sources yourself so stop saying that everyone else has to. It is a valid argument and makes sense. All one has to do is use common sense, unless of course one is an illegal lover.
