No FRiend, try again.
That 12 million number was bandied about when I was in high school, 30 years ago.
The current estimate is 30 to 40 million.
That is, over 10% of the population of my country is illegal criminal invaders.
It is widely accepted that 10% of the working age population of Mexico has moved to America. Permanently.
I agree that it’s more than 30 million but didn’t want to risk overstating the number.
The important thing is to send them home, for the sake of restoring the rule of law. A secondary but also important consideration is that the fecal-hole countries they come from will never get better if we keep taking their youth; “cultural appropriation” doesn’t get any more real than stealing future generations from other countries.
