My problem with illegal aliens showing up is that they are knowingly taking advantage of lax immigration laws. What our laws amount to is just show up and claim refugee status.
Because it is 2017 and everyone is touchy feely, the governments of many countries just take them in without considering the difficulties associated with 1000s showing up virtually uncontrolled. The system is overwhelmed, the taxpayers of the various countries are on the hook for millions and crime rates shoot up. This is what we're seeing in Europe.
Some of the governments there do not wish to be seen as the bad guy, or incapable of being able to handle things I suppose, so news events don't get properly reported.
Unfortunately, it has to get worse before corrections come about. A country like Germany, Sweden or the US must take the lead and be first. That will make them unpopular and even criticized by other nations. I suspect that Germany is a bit touchy about coming down hard on the Muslims there, given the country's track record last century. I am hoping that Sweden cracks the whip. It would set a precedent that other countries would adopt and follow.
To steal from an old work out video, someone has to be first to, 'Stop the madness!'
