Not surprised - from CNS News:
40% of Federal Criminal Cases in 2013 Were in Districts on Mexican Border
Whether measured by the number of criminal cases filed by U.S. attorneys or the number of guilty verdicts they ultimately secured in cases in U.S. district courts, 40 percent of the federal crimes documented by the Justice Department in fiscal 2013 took place in the five U.S. court districts (out of the total of 94 U.S. court districts) that sit on the U.S.-Mexico border.
These five U.S. court districts contiguous with the Mexican border were also the five where the largest numbers of individuals were convicted of federal crimes in fiscal 2013.
In the Western Texas district alone--which saw more federal crime than any other district in the country--more than twice as many federal criminals were convicted in fiscal 2013 as in all four U.S. court districts in New York state combined.
The Southern Texas district also saw more than twice as many people convicted of federal crimes in fiscal 2013 as all four districts in New York combined.
Anyone remember the Mariel Boatlift - happened under Jimmy Carter's presidency. From the Wikipedia article:
The Cuban government subsequently announced that anyone who wanted to leave could do so, and an exodus by boat started shortly afterward. The exodus was organized by Cuban-Americans with the agreement of Cuban president Fidel Castro. The exodus started to have negative political implications for U.S. president Jimmy Carter when it was discovered that a number of the exiles had been released from Cuban jails and mental health facilities.
Emphasis mine - this is exactly what we are seeing with the 'refugee' influx today. MS-13 members, Islamists, general scum. Central America is emptying their prisons and we are allowing the prisoners to come and live here and we are giving them free stuff with the understanding that they will vote Democrat at every opportunity.
