Landowners Discribe Life On The Border : Illegals Bring Saftey Concerns and Fear

This story might not be a real statement from a real landowner, but  there are statements from landowners from past years that are true testaments to what is transcribed here.

Still, given what is taking place now  today on our border where in Texas 400 illegals are arrested there in one hour and 10's of thousands more are coming every day to gain access to the good life where everything is free. 

Little wonder the estimate now is that there are more then 54 million from around the world that want to come to the United States. 

Also it is estimated that in the next 10 years if the wall is not built, the number of illegals that will try and cross the southern boarder will be at a rate, being at around 400,000 and increasing every year, by the end of the first 5 years will exceed 1.4+ million per year. What is the total at the end of 10 years?

And of course the cost to the taxpayers is about $76,000 per illegal immigrant, let along the 11 million already here receiving benefits.

What It's Like Living On The Border?

The urgency to have a wall built at the border may not seem like a crisis for some, but for those living close to the border, the crisis is all too real. One such person is Kari Wade, who, with her family, owns a ranch just 50 miles from the U.S.-Mexico border.

The border rancher recently responded to a Facebook comment when someone asked, “Where’s the fire” in regards to the urgency of President Trump to build the wall at the U.S.-Mexico border.

'Let me tell you where the fire is: The “fire” is finding dead bodies on your ranch, the “fire” is finding domestic pig ears in your drinkers when there isn’t a domestic pig for 25 miles, the “fire” is waking up to unknown people talking in your attic, the “fire” is dogs barking all night when your closest neighbor is 7-25 miles away depending on the direction, to just realize there are people outside your barn, the “fire” is having to come home after dark and have to carry a rifle to go feed your livestock after BP tells you that they only caught 9 of the 15 they are looking for.

The “fire” is making a choice...do I take my child with me to a dark barn to feed and hold the flashlight or lock him in the house, so you lock him in the house and call a friend to let them know he’s home alone and if they don’t hear back from me to come check on us.

The “fire” is you don’t feel comfortable letting your child play outside without being in eyeshot of them. The “fire” is having large drug busts on your ranch. The “fire” is feeling sick to your stomach every time the helicopter swirls your house because you know they are chasing people because you can hear them on the speaker talking to them. The “fire” is seeing the BP camera set-up 1/2 mile from your house.

The “fire” is coming home after dark...your children are driving in front of you as one is of age to drive, and there are officers on your road watching illegals 1/4-1/2 mile from your house and you have to call your children and tell them to keep driving, don’t stop at the house.'

The “fire” is coming home to your backdoor wide open. The “fire” is real for me, my family, and my community.
