If someone broke into your house and injured themselves, would you think like this?

You'll probably say 'yes', but I'll never believe you.

Read the entire article about the number of deaths and injuries that these illegals have sustained from trying to jump over the walls. When will they learn?
This illustrates the Gold Rush mentality that immigration, legal or illegal has become.

Deport them then set up some automated turrets. If they try to cross again, they'll suffer more than a fall.

Do you actually think that these people don't realize the risk? But, a free and easy life awaits them if they make it. Those women, if not already pregnant, would be dropping anchor babies and pleading to not be separated from their little money makers.

This is Biden's fault, as if we were enforcing our immigration laws, this would not be the problem that it is. Sanctuary cities are another of the ones guilty when stupid people trying to break our laws end up injured.

We have over 1/2 million homeless in our country, infrastructure failing, schools that suck, people losing their homes................. Both sympathy and charity should start at home!
Hear, hear!!! I could not agree more with everything you said!!! Thank you!!!

Good idea, but I bet we can do even better than that, though.

I would treat street thugs that way, not people trying to come here. I am not crazy about Biden's throwing open the borders but mass murder is not, for me, an option.

Further to this being a 21st Century Gold Rush sounds like what I read in The Klondike Fever: The Life and Death of the Last Great Gold Rush by Pierre Berton.

Jesus didn't say that.
