This would seem to contradict what you said.
Note Im the one who posted that....It affirms what I said ....read the article
From another article:
"Francisco Loureiro, who runs a migrant shelter in Nogales, Mexico, across the border from Arizona, said migrants are afraid of the U.S. troops after hearing reports of abuse in Iraq.
Others have been discouraged by smugglers' fees that have nearly doubled to more than $3,000."
ROFLMAO!
Yeah, but 10 year prison terms...they figured they missed the guy.
"Overall, arrests dropped 2 percent along the U.S.-Mexico border, from 957,297 to 938,833, in the same time period."
Arrests have dropped slightly, but that could just mean more are safely making to their destination. I read somewhere that only 3 in 10 are apprehended.
How true!!!
