As the border crisis continues, with around 84 percent of illegal aliens encountered in March crossing into the U.S. between the legal ports of entry, citizens living along the border are fed up with the dangerous conditions.
Border resident Alison Anderson told Texas Scorecard that besides the recorded numbers, “the numbers of got-aways that we have been seeing reported here in the Del Rio Sector since about mid-March alone have been ranging anywhere between 2,000 and 4,000 a week. And even then, that number is just a guess of how many are truly getting away unseen and undetected.”
South Texas is bombarded with crossings, but the number of “give-ups” who turn themselves in to Border Patrol is drastically lower than the number of illegal aliens attempting to evade law enforcement.
“We have seen nothing but a constant and steadily increasing flow of groups of illegals cutting through our properties since this administration took office,” said Anderson. “We have groups of illegals loading out of our property regularly, and the amount of dangerous smuggling pursuits in our area has also skyrocketed.”
