Oh, now I understand. If we don't catch them in Wisconsin they don't count or is it, if we catch them near the border they don't count?

We do agree that 1.3 million illegals are being apprehended and returned. Harder to do is the 40%, in many areas, that have overstayed their visas or other legal means of entry. Not even a 100 foot fence on the Mexican border can remedy that.

That's exactly correct. The only deportations that count for me are from the greater United States. Apprehending illegals on the border of Texas or Arizona and sending them straight back to Mexico is a lot easier. Though I acknowledge how hard the Border Patrol works

When most people think of deportations they think of someone from their city or county being caught and deported. Not Mexicans caught at the border being gaveled through mass hearings and sent on busses back to Mexico. And that is EXACTLY what 95% of the 1.3 million deportations are. People rushed back to Mexico where most of the time they try agains and again and again

Visa Overstayers is a growing and tremendous problem that could be solved if we had a computerized entry and exit system. But we never get one. The US government doesn’t want to keep tabs on the comings and goings of foreigners

This is so ridiculous
