I wonder how many of those posting know the following: (1) In a given 12 month period 1.3 million illegals are apprehended and returned; (2)And, since 2005, the previous policy of returning illegals to the community to await trail has been averted because it now takes only 19 days instead of over 90 to process and deport an illegal.

Many are assuming nothing is being done. They are in error. In respect to the fence, remember in many areas of the US 40% of illegals got here legally—visas and shopping—and have just overstayed.

All of these problems would diminish appreciably with picture id; however, many of those crying, whining about not big enough a fence would appose such an id because of the “show me your papers” possibility. Finally, remember the long border with Canada and our extensive coastline. Those believing a simple fence will protect our borders are mistaken.

Where are these 1.3 million illegals apprehended? In Wisconsin? In California? In Kansas? In New York?

This is a serious question. The answer is the vast vast majority are apprehended very near the border and sent back to Mexico. Many are returned 3,4,5 times and more

If you think 1.3 million are arrested and deported from the greater United States you are dead wrong. This activity is just about all at the border and within 50 miles of the border which is how far the US Border Patrol ranges

Eight years ago the State of Iowa was openly advertising for and recruiting illegals as a way to reverse the population decline of the state.
