Trivial numbers of Chinese or other nationalities.
Define trivial. Since you're so fond of referring to the 9/11 hijackers, let's note there were only 19 of them.

This article is from 2019. Have these numbers gone down or have they gone up since then?

“We have always seen what’s classified as ‘other than Mexicans’ crossing the border, but the surge we are seeing now is because of the asylum loopholes,” Heritage Foundation national security expert James Carafano told The Daily Signal.

In fiscal year 2018, which ended Sept. 30, a total of 22,491 refugees resettled in the United States. The largest number came from the Democratic Republic of the Congo, followed by Burma, Ukraine, Bhutan, and Eritrea, according to Pew.

Asylum loopholes. Imagine that.

More than 13,000 of those caught at the border in fiscal 2018 came from Asian countries. The largest portion—9,234—came from India, followed by Bangladesh with 1,203, China with 1,077, and Nepal with 719.

Again, that was before the surge at the border more or less doubled.

Hardly trivial.

You're going to be noticeable. And if you also don't have any identification, you're going to be exceptionally unusual. Which makes it even more likely that you're going to get looked at more closely to see if you're really who you say you are. Which makes it - again - a phenomenally stupid move if you're trying to get into the country unnoticed.

No offense, but you're just wrong.
One more time. If I cross the border and can fool the BP to get into the asylum program, I've bought myself 8 years to hang out in the United States and never have to worry about some snooping cop using a broken taillight to call ICE on me.

Hardly stupid.

No.

So no deal. Okay.

We can't round up an prosecute all the coyotes, because they're generally not subject to U.S. jurisdiction. We can't "build the wall" because most of the border is in the river. We already have "many more deportations" - removals are tracking well above even the highest levels of the Trump years.


Stop throwing up your hands and insisting the only things that can be done are to speed up letting people into the country. That's not a solution.

Here's an even simpler idea: Cross the US border with a gun in your hand - as coyotes do - and you'll be treated as an invading terrorist. In other words, shot on sight.

Deal?
