WTH do visa over stayers have to do with border jumpers and how we have to deal with both problems in a different way? Why would you ignore one of those problems? By your own stats you are admitting that at least 50% of illegals coming here are border jumpers.
Can't rep you again, but you are correct.

What amazes me is when fellow Americans defend illegals coming here and don't support border protection. This isn't a left or right issue, we need to unite and protect our country.

Because they were following the script.

Um, so how does that wall do against people overstaying visas, driving across in the back of a truck, a boat?

LMAO....a literal wall is a complete joke.

Hahahaha catapults. I think these catapults were mainly used to throw drug pacakages over and not meant to launch women and children, Lmao. Yeah one small miscalculation and someone is going face first against a concrete wall. And besides, how are they gonna land on the other side? There's for sure gonna be broken bones.

The Chinese take away many construction jobs in California & the workers are treated horribly. But they are not Mexican, so I guess that is OK.

Oh my God, you people are so ridiculous! You don't think we guard our waters already? Why would you even make the remark that a wall won't stop submarines? For the umpteenth time, the wall is for border jumpers only and there are still thousands crossing our border that way every year. Then you guys throw up the visa over stayers. Of course we'd have to figure out a different solution for that problem and it wouldn't be a wall. I'm getting a headache reading these ridiculous attempts to act like the wall will do absolutely nothing and pretending that we don't have any border jumpers anymore. I've even posted links proving that the good walls do work!

Who said the wall would stop visa over stayers? What does that have to do with it stopping the border jumpers? You don't think we have ways to check trucks, boats ,etc. or that we couldn't implement a way to track visa overs stayers?

I've been saying that for a long time on these forums but it seems to fall on deaf ears.
