I read somewhere once that 48% of violentcrime in Phoenix is committed by illegals. Forty-eight percent. Imagine how shutting the border would change the crime in one city.
As for the line of BS about most illegals just being poor people trying to feed their family, spare me. Stealing & sneaking into the country does not make one a righteous & upstanding person. Furthermore, we know that those “poor people” who are crossing the border just to make a better life are being exploited and endangered by human traffikers and smugglers. Do these do-gooder Democrats not care at all about that???
Paying a coyote to transport one over the border ain't cheap. I wonder how these "poor" people afford that?
