In a speech delivered Thursday at the annual convention of the League of Arizona Cities and Towns, in Tucson, the commissioner of U.S. Customs and Border Protection Alan Bersin roundly praised the country’s defense of its southern border. Bersin argued that, although CBP agents have apprehended over 100,000 undocumented migrants attempting to cross into Arizona this fiscal year, this number is down from what the agency was seeing a decade ago. He also referred to public concerns over violence at the border as “overblown,â€

If he thinks it is so safe....dare him to spend a whole night camping BY HIMSELF on one of the known paths......

I guess he considers it not to be a problem as long as they make it further into the country to kill, rob and steal from Americans. What about the numerous stories of drunken Illegals running over American citizens and killing them. Numerous stories of those who have been burglarized, robbed, and raped by Illegals. Stories of gangs and drug dealing coupled with the violence that goes with the lifestyle. This is not evidence of violence spilling over into the U.S.? I guess since it is not right on the border that makes it OK?
