Of course, all the estimates are even HIGHER now with Jorge Arbusto running cover for them. Current numbers are upwards of 15-20 million with another million annual.
IMO CBG is trying to bait readers of this post into posting an inappropriate or vulgar reply......the type of reply which could get one banned from FR and paint anti-illegal immigration types as "wackos." Fortunately, it looks like nobody took the bait.
I guess I am somewhat cynical today but a red flag goes up when I see somebody brandishing military credentials to bolster their demagoguery.
Incidentally, I agree with CBG that the illegal immigration problem is a symptom of a greater problem, namely the welfare state.
