Think about this for a moment: If the usual rule of thumb is that at least three people are able to cross the border and do so successfully for every one who is apprehended. think of the number of violent. vile criminals who are entering our country because we have failed to secure the border. This is a serious problem for the United States. It is estimated now that in some places over half of the population of prisons is illegal immigrants. In addition to the crime that is occurring at the border and the criminals coming across the border. it is also true that the people who are illegally coming to the United States for a better life are prey to the coyotes and other criminal elements. They are raped. robbed. beaten. held hostage for ransom.
