I mean real close. So close you see aliens now and then stealing water from your hydrants.

How long has border crossing illegally been going on, surely for years. Just that we get media involved now. Can anyone say it hasn't been bad before? Sincere question.

I wouldn't get too worked up about someone needing a drink of water.

From what a friend of mine in Texas says we brought them in during world war 2 to work and produce products and food for war effort some never left and they just kept coming he watches them all the time 10 miles from the border never had a problem he says he sees just as many going back across when they run out of work. They cant afford to stay when the ranch and farm work runs out so they go back across. Friend also in Green Valley AZ says he sees them but never had a problem.

I knew an old guy, Jim, who was a Korean War Veteran. Jim said they had trouble with Mexicans coming across the border, in the 1950s, right after he left the service. The Mexicans would take anything of value, including cars and trucks, they could. He and the other ex soldiers he was living on the ranch with would shoot towards any groups of Mexicans they saw and throw grenades towards them, if they were closer. I asked if they ever got any Mexicans and he told me they never bothered to check. I suspect they really just tried to scare the Mexicans off rather than kill them.

It was getting bad a couple years ago. Trump put and end to it and those with boots on the ground agreed,..it worked and was working well until you know who got in and cancelled it.
It's unfortunate that so many that have applied the legal way and wait so long,now have to watch as thousands every day pour across the border. Border officials have stated they are coming now in record numbers.

Bingo. MSLSD, clinton news network, public bull stuff, same crap. Sane, intelligent people know better and we need to start teaching people instead of accepting their stupidity.


Get the US out of the UN and the UN out of the US.

While i dont want or agree with thousands of illegal aliens flooding the US swallowing up our resources, i do think the majority of the people coming in groups or “caravans” have little to no ill intentions and are taking advantage of what they feel is opportunity. Im more curious about the ones with 75 lbs of meth or fentanyl strapped to their backs, if the numbers have increased dramatically the past few months. People who live on the border would likely see that.

Exactly.

The issue is it's currently 10's of thousands flooding the crossings a month. So many right now the coyotes (human smuggler) now give amusement park style wrist bands to keep track of "their customers". This influx started with Obama admin gained momentum when the wall was being built then significantly slowed down. Now that Biden is "in charge" and policies essentially making the border open there's a massive flood of immigrants not just from Latin America coming.

I think the majority are looking for the American dream and a better way of life. I think the wall needs finished and the system revamped so these people can legally enter without waiting yearz and costing them a small fortune. I mean now preference goes to college grads and we have plenty of them but not hard working families wanting a chance at a better life.

Illegal aliens from almost every terrorist country have been arrested at the US Mexican border. 11 Iranians were arrested invading the US last month. Over 80% of the people arrested recently, invading the US are not Mexican. Many, maybe most people make it across the border without being arrested. No one knows anything about those who are not caught.

In all honesty. Back in the 80s and early 90s. The Mexicans came in droves to work. Now they come from South America, Africa for free. Big difference now to then. It would be cheaper to fly the free seekers back to where they came from. Or if you truly want the American dream. Wait your turn to get in legally. But hey what do I know. I come from immigrants that came in legally. They fled oppression and persecution. But still did it legally.
