Watching the debate made me aware of something that is quite disturbing. Most Americans seem to be awfully unaware about the truths surrounding illegal immigration in our southern border, especially how dangerous it is for multiple reasons.

First, children are indeed routinely kidnapped to be used as a prop for illegal immigration. They are either abandoned or trafficked after the adults get into the US, this tactic is more frequently used when the US policy is catch and release. https://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2018/may/22/children-abducted-illegals-posing-families-us-bord/">https://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2018...

Second, coyotes often rape the females, regularly teenage girls, who they are supposed to be smuggling into the US. It’s not rare, many women who’ve come here illegally have a story of being raped along the way. https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.nytimes.com/2019/03/03/us/border-rapes-migrant-women.amp.html">https://www.google.com/amp/s/www...

Third, many immigrants tragically never make it, the areas along the border that are easy to cross are just that because of the remote area, lack of roads, water, anything really. Thousands of people have lost their lives due to the harsh conditions. https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.nytimes.com/2019/04/18/us/mexico-border-deaths.amp.html">https://www.google.com/amp/s/www...
