If you EVER spent a moment reviewing the numerous threads/reports here on FR regarding OTM's (other than Mexican) border crossings, you may have a different outlook.

And btw, just how many of the world's population should we let in yearly? 100,000? 1,000,000? 5,000,000? 10m? 20m? 50m? And do we have the right to maintain our affluent lifestyle? Should we continue to allow our border hospitals to go bankrupt? Should we allow our schools to be over crowded? Should we allow for almost 25% of our federal prison population be illegal criminals?
