Nope, just the small number of the unlucky. The total catch here on the southern border last year was just over 932,000.

The Border Patrol's political masters back in DC say they manage to catch about half. If so, that means about a million made it across safely.

The Border Patrol's sector-level middle management usually say they catch about a third. Okay, that makes maybe two million that hit the home run last year.

The working Border Patrol agents in the field claim they catch about one in five...a really ugly scenario, isn't it?

These figures do not include our other borders or the huge number that simply over-stay their visas.
