DAILY CALLER reports: The number of arrests made at the border of people from Afghanistan and Pakistan is up significantly this year compared to last, the president of the National Border Patrol Council said when he testified during a House hearing on Tuesday.
Those numbers should alarm everyone and we are seeing a similar trend from other key countries like Albania, Bangladesh and Brazil,” he continued.

That's funny because the people patrolling the border are saying the exact opposite in the article.
Have anything I can read about what your saying or do I have to take your word for it?
I'm not going to sit here pretending that people aren't crossing the border with drugs and potential terrorist and that thousands of migrants are coming over the border consistently.
Don't sit hear and try and get me to believe that nonsense.

So basically everyone from countries I would never want to live in want to live in America and will take whatever measures necessary to escape their horrible lives?
Those awful people! Sign says no vacancy...no wait. It actually says the exact opposite.

The unauthorized resident population was about a million lower in 2013 than in 2007.
The “Great Recession” was not the principal cause of population decline.
Annual arrivals into the unauthorized population increased to more than one million in 2000, then began to drop steadily, and have now reached their lowest levels since the early 1980s.
From 2000 to 2012, arrivals from Mexico fell by about 80 percent.
Between 2010 and 2013, the total unauthorized population from Mexico declined by eight percent.
In 2006, the number of arrivals from Mexico fell below the total number of arrivals from all other countries (combined) for the first time.
The number who stayed beyond the period authorized by their temporary visas (overstays) exceeded the number who entered across the southern land border without inspection (EWIs) in each year from 2008 to 2012.
