So the immigrants who are coming over are bad guys sent by the Mexican govt? Not people seeking better economic situations?
Or do you think most economically challenged immigrants are also rapists at a statistically relevant rate?
I'm not sure mexico is purposely sending over folks, but acknowledge that a great many of them are and arent stopping them. There is an official pamphlet that they published about some of the dangers of being on the road and of mexican citizen's right's they have if they run into LEO here in the usa. Human rights watch groups estimate some 60-80% of women/girls are being raped along along the way, a pretty staggering figure, how many of those rapists are coming in is debatable, it's more the predatory men taking advantage of the situation. For women making the journey, it's so bad , many of them are taking birth control and plan b drugs to prevent pregnancy

The Mexican government drew fire from American advocates of tighter borders on Wednesday for publishing a pamphlet that instructs migrants how to safely enter the United States illegally and live there without being detected.
Officials here say the small booklet, illustrated in comic-book style, is not intended to encourage illegal immigration, but to reduce the loss of life. Last year, more than 300 migrants died while crossing rivers and deserts to reach the United States.
80% Of Central American Women, Girls Are Raped Crossing Into The U.S.

Rape can be perpetrated by anyone along the way, including guides, fellow migrants, bandits or government officials, according to Fusion. Sometimes sex is used as a form of payment, when women and girls don’t have money to pay bribes.
The assaults are so common that many women and girls take contraceptives beforehand as preventative measures.
What’s particularly disconcerting is that the fact that these figures may not even represent the full grim picture.
By the usa having such a weak stance on immigration, an unintended consequence is more people making the trip, ironically a stronger stance and enforced border would help reduce the gross numbers of people trying, and prevent a huge amount of related crime and predators.

A witch hunt?
You mean enforcing the law.
Show me your facts on the cost being more than paying for the ALIENS benefits....
They aren't fucking citenzens.
average illegal immigrant household has a net avg cost (to taxpayers) of ~$14K + per year, a bus ride is way cheaper then doing nothing.

In 2010, the average unlawful immigrant household received around $24,721 in government benefits and services while paying some $10,334 in taxes. This generated an average annual fiscal deficit (benefits received minus taxes paid) of around $14,387 per household. This cost had to be borne by U.S. taxpayers. Amnesty would provide unlawful households with access to over 80 means-tested welfare programs, Obamacare, Social Security, and Medicare. The fiscal deficit for each household would soar.
