| The U.S. Border Patrol made 82,577 apprehensions along the southwest border in August 2002. Arizona accounted for approximately 41% of those apprehensions, followed by Texas (29%), California (24%), ans New Mexico (6%). Mexican Nationals (79,226) accounted for approximately 96% ot the total apprehensions. There were 13 apprhensions from Special Interest countries. | ||||
Southwest Border Sectors: San Diego, CA; El Centro, CA; Yuma, AZ; Tucson, AZ; El Paso, TX; Marfa, TX; Del Rio, TX; Larado, TX: McAllen, TX.
In the first 11 months of FY 2002 the U.S. Border Patrol made 861,566 apprehensions. The Border Patrol estimates that they apprehend approximately 25% of the illegal aliens crossing into the United States. That means 3 illegal aliens get through for every 1 apprehended. Independent Immigration experts estimate that the Border Patrol apprehends only 10% of the illegal aliens crossing into the United States. That means 9 illegal aliens get through for every 1 apprehension.
For this presentation, I will use the Border Patrol estimate of 25%.
If the Border Patrol has apprehended 861,566 illegal aliens in the past 11 months, the number of illegal aliens that made it into the United States undetected would be approximately 2,584,698.
This is an average of over 7,700 illegal aliens entering the United States undetected daily.
Here are some numbers to help put this into perspective:
US and Allied troops that invaded Normandy in 1944 = 250,000+
US troops that invaded Okinawa in 1945 = 550,000+
They seem to have all come to Los Angeles (again).

I was reading an article from a South Texas newspaper yesterday. A lawmaker down there who is upset at those obnoxious, cheating varmints in Mexico thumbing their noses at us while stiffing us on a water treaty is intolerable. I believe the article said that Bush, instead of aiming missiles at Iraq, should aim them at Mexico instead, since Mexico has done a helluva lot more damage to the U.S. than Iraq ever has. I agree. They are invading us with hostile intent, and they need to be dealt with once and for all.
There were some rumors of that on another thread.
