Illegal entry rpesumably means attempting to enter at a place other than a border crossing or port of entry?

Were they digging under the fence? Or swimming ashore?

Or does it simply mean "turned back for having no visa"?

Don't they know that sneaking in via Canada is the wrong approach. They are supposed to get in via Mexico ...

Approximately 10,000 illegals gain entry into the US every day via Mexico.

You're a Brit. What dog do you have in this fight? Oh wait. At this rate, in a hundred years the US will be a tamale-eating Catholic country. Horrors!

Wait a second. Do I have you confused with BigVerne?
