Would help to open my eyes. Missed that thread.

This is a wake up call to the necessity of concealed carry, in case it wasn't obvious already.

Nah, we were specifically told this was fear mongering.

It's like Biden said, "Send us your criminals, rapists, pedaphiles, gang members, drug lords and more! I love them as does Hunter!!". Typical liberals and democrats. They love this sh…..

What the Democrats love is that 1 vote every 10,000 illegal migrants.

"Lincoln Riley," Biden said, appearing to mispronounce the victim's first name, "an innocent young woman who was killed by an illegal that's right. But how many thousands of people being killed by illegals?"

It should be pinned to the top of the page. It is more important that people see this stuff than the next "can't miss, 4 star WR" who will transfer in a year.

Just remember when you get that little bit of road rage you have no idea who is in the other car that doesn't give 2 cents about your life.

This is what I think about when I see these guys because they are out there and you don't know when you will come across them IMO.

100%. Over the last few years I have completely changed my demeanor and approach to strangers whether it is on the road or as a pedestrian. Stay at a distance when possible, keep an eye on the whole situation, let road rage dissolve quickly, look for escape routes if things start to ramp up...

Those who turn away, live to see another day. (I do not carry, but thinking that will change soon.)

I remember Trump being called a racist for correctly identifying criminal invaders.

And again, WTF do Haitians offer this country? (Other than vote shenanigans for Dems). They sure as hell aren't picking vegetables and putting up roofs.

We have got to get people in the state legislature who are pro texit.

sadly, This thread too will slip off first page and be forgotten.

they've become so commonplace that we've become sensitized to what should be national headline stories.

3 people from Chile who are in our country illegally were arrested in Arizona for various crimes

They absolutely should not be here illegally. But as far as fear mongering...if we prevented all illegal/violent criminals from entering the U.S.....The violent crime rate needle wouldn't move. We have a serious prosecution/punishment problem in the U.S.

So I agree, they should not be here and it would at least be one less crime. But I also think its been a great political tool to get people freaked out enough to vote and believe that they will be intrinsically safer from violent crimes.

I bet if you or a family member were the "one" less victim of the crime, the situation might register a little differently.

For those of us Americans watching the complete destruction(by the Democrats 100%) of our country unfold in real time, "fear mongering" is at least one more thing that might somehow get the D voters attention, who might help slow or end the destruction. How is this even a counterpoint, with all of this going on?

Yep, it sure moved the needle for the families of those raped & killed.

And tired of the "it's fear mongering". I am not afraid of any illegal. I can kill 99.9% of people walking this planet in less than a minute with my bare hands. The point of these threads is to keep it top of mind and in the water cooler conversations.

In before "They don't commit crimes at any higher rate than American citizens". Sure…….why not add 1000s more?

This kind of constant reporting on illegals and the harm many are doing does not seem to "get through" to many of the posters over on the Religion and Philosophy Forum where I have been battling those of liberal persuasion who obstinately defend loose border policies.
I wish some of you would post there under "Where some see invasion others see hope".
There, I'm told that illegals aren't committing crimes at a worse rate than our current population...which I don't believe, but even if true is not a good argument for allowing more illegals.

Edit: Macarthur has dropped back to we need immigration because of our low birth rate.
Which could possibly be true in the future but right now we are overpopulated with laborers/welfare recipients, just not the kind of educated professional that gets accepted as a legal immigrant.

3/13: USBP agents in Uvalde, TX arrested an illegal migrant from Ecuador. He is a child predator w/ a 2014 conviction for Sexual Assault of a victim under 13, serving 6 years in prison.

Now, we need the AUSA to prosecute, the judge to convict, & ICE to remove him from the U.S. pic.twitter.com/ecSQECuNkv

3/13: USBP agents in Casa Grande, AZ arrested a Mexican national, who was guiding 6 subjects illegally into the U.S.

He has a Homicide-Manslaughter warrant in Florence, AZ. He was turned over to local LE w/ an immigration detainer that needs to be honored so he can be removed. pic.twitter.com/oKLyjmM9ph

Would you stop a crime before it happened?
Would you stop 10,000 illegals from entering the U.S. just to stop one criminal?

That one criminal may not move the needle, unless he/she is a terrorist who suicide bombs a stadium. It is all relative.

NEW: Our photographer witnessed another wall breach and mass illegal crossing of people from around the globe into Lukeville, AZ yesterday evening. This Tucson, AZ sector continues to see the most activity. At end of video, you’ll see the some taking selfies to show they got in. pic.twitter.com/v67wzo6NJ5
