35,300,000 Illegal Mexicans

It states the Hispanic population has grown 58% to 35.3 million. It does not state that those are illegals.

There are between 8 and 11 million illegal aliens in the US from all different countries, not just Mexico.

The remainder of the 35.3 million Hispanics are legal residents or first generation Americans.

But, I have heard border patrol dispute these figgures of 8 to 11 million. They say you can double and even triple the 8 or 11 million to get a more legitimate figgure.

I never seem to be able to trust Government numbers, or polls, or statistics, or promises. So you think it really is around 8 to 11 mil? Your's is an opinion I can respect.

Based on your experience, do you agree with the estimate that the Border Patrol is only stopping 16 to 25 percent of all of the illegals trying to enter the country?

Do you believe we could stop 90 percent with 30' high, guarded walls?

How deep would the foundation have to be to prevent tunneling?
