McAllen Station agents are being inundated with migrant families and unaccompanied minors illegally crossing the border from Mexico. Once across the border, the migrants turn themselves in to the first Border Patrol agents they can find, according to information provided to Breitbart Texas from Rio Grande Valley Sector Border Patrol officials.

“The continued flow of migrants turning themselves in to Border Patrol agents is creating an unsustainable situation,” Rio Grande Valley Sector Chief Patrol Agent Manuel Padilla, Jr. said in a written statement. “The transnational criminal organizations exploit family units and unaccompanied children populations and create diversions for agents, leaving areas along the Rio Grande vulnerable.”

This is why we need a fence/barrier/wall.
We also need to change the laws making it easier to just return them ALL to Mexico, regardless of country of origin.

After they turn themselves in, they should be walked back to the border. With a bottle of water and some coupons from Taco Bell so they can get something to eat on the way home. Let Mexico take care of them.

Yes, the wall would solve the problem.

Why do we have to waste taxpayer money on any of these criminals? They should just be stopped at the border,. Given nothing. They managed to get here, they can go back. If they knew there were actual consequences many would stay home.

Money quote: “The transnational criminal organizations exploit family units and unaccompanied children populations and create diversions for agents, leaving areas along the Rio Grande vulnerable.”

These people are being used like how the Russians would herd animals across minefields.

Yes, we need the army on the border. Station them with ICE agents and local constabulatory in tow to actually take charge of those captured and destined. No catch and release. Catch and summarily deport, no questions asked and no excuses accepted.

But treat drug smugglers like terrorist.

I agree. Send the Army. Use the time to practice desert warfare.

Many videos available from trail cameras where platoons of young men are crossing the border very well and militarily equiped. They are just drug mules? Or are they Iranian?

What a moronic system we have... Your ticket for a chance to stay in this country and to be fed and sheltered for free is to turn yourself in as soon as possible to the very people that are supposed to be keeping you out!!

They should not be let over the border.

Mexico is facilitating this.

They could stop it today if the right incentives were applied.

BTW, it's an act of war.
