We argue that Trump's wall and enforcement of the immigration laws already on the books would actually be more compassionate than our current immigration policy the virtually open border, lax enforcement of the immigration laws, and sanctuary cities.
It is true that many Hispanics illegally crossing our southern border have found a better life here. But they are the winners of a Devil's Lottery. The losers include not only the thousands who have died in the desert, but the countless thousands more who find only hardship and misery, including slavery, after they reach the U.S.
Surely, this humanitarian catastrophe outweighs the benefits. And the dark side of illegal immigration would discredit the whole if the readily available facts were widely reported.
The U.S. Border Patrol reports that from Fiscal Year 2000 through FY 2016, 6,403 illegal immigrants died crossing the Southwestern border. (Four thousand four hundred seventy-five U.S. military died in the Iraq War.) In an interview with the pro-migrant Truthout Buzzflash, Northern Arizona University professor Robert Neustadt recounts that "over 7,000 human remains have been found in the [desert] borderlands." He emphasizes that "this number only represents the number of bodies found. The actual number of border crosser deaths is almost certainly significantly higher, though the bodies were never found."

He makes a good point. I hadn’t thought of that.
Earlier this morning Rudy Giuliani was on Fox and Friends and he was talking about having asked some of the protestors why they're protesting. The reply from them was that they are protesting Washington.
Rudy told them that is what President Trump is protesting too.
" Oh we didn't think of that" was their reply
How novel!
The nugget of truth
Heck; if you're gonna guess; do it in a extravagantly!
The desert makes a pretty good ‘fence’ all by itself!
Signs all along the border...

I heard libs leave water out there in the desert for them.
Yes - watering stations that I think are even marked on maps that get distributed at the border.
A former boss of mine goes out in the desert for fun and work south of Tucson. He said when he comes across suspected illegals he gives them water “I always carry a bunch - you never know what might happen out in the desert.”
Then when he gets to a high spot he calls them into the Border Patrol with their last GPS coordinates.
“I give them the water ‘cuz I’m a Christian. The phone call is because I’m an American.”
