Par - for those who say we have no problem with the Mexican's being the illegals - jeeezzzz - read the stats - the overwhelming violators and repeat offenders are Mexicans.

But, the stats are interesting in that, even though DHS and ICE don't say so, they are admitting there "may indeed" be an illegal immigration problem.

Oh.. hell.. they have been into this now for decades and I've been following it off and on for at least 3 of them.. Resources .. that's the key.. and Even though the governor of Arizona may have been spanked by some.. one purpose was to be elected.. and another reason to bring that law she signed was to bring more attention to it.. pressure congress.. but no one wants to see their political career end.. Troops and money have been directed to it.. and there his tons of drugs being seized along with money .. IF the people who used drugs all of a sudden stopped using them in the US.. do you think the Cartels would be here? Except for them using the money that goes to them to buy guns..

"But, the stats are interesting in that, even though DHS and ICE don't say so, they are admitting there "may indeed" be an illegal immigration problem."

Just curious as to who has said we do not have an "illegal immigration problem?" Most everybody agrees that a problem exists but differ on the solutions to the problem. Also it's entirely logical that the Mexicans would be the most numerous as theirs is the closest country by far and have the best and most established systems for penetrating the border and finding employment.

I find it interesting that despite all of Arizona's complaints BP and ICE are catching more illegals in the Tuscon district than anywhere else. Apparently they are trying to do their job their but that area has become the route of choice in recent years over other areas of the border and they simply can't keep up with it. It's not like Arizona is being overlooked or neglected.

    There is a state that has well over 200,000 illegal criminal aliens .. California.. that is more than any state.. This is what causes problems when a state wants to direct money to say schools and teachers.. or some other deal.. That's a lot of moola...

    Phoenix has a higher crime rate as a result of illegal aliens, as Sheriff Joe and other LEO's in Maricopa county can/will attest, but Tucson gets the publicity - why? Mzzzz Janet said the illegal alien issue has gotten much better in AZ - does that mean more are coming in or more are being kicked out? All the govinator needs to do is cut benefits to the illegals and his budget issues will disappear.
