  1. Mr. Flowers is correct, it is a very important topic. Migration, forced or not, has become a problem in many countries. In the US, the topic is very contentious. The US / Mexico border is 3,145 kilometers (1,954 miles). In Texas, where I live, the border with Mexico extends 2018 kilometers (1254 miles), with 28 International bridges and border crossings. Much of the area between crossings is desert wilderness. At different times we've had as many as 10,000 illegal aliens a day crossing into Texas. They come from all over the world. Recently, there's been an increase of people from China, Asia and South America, especially Venezuela, where life for most is extremely difficult, even dangerous. Securing our international borders is the responsibility of the Federal government. Unfortunately, since they have effectively abdicated that responsibility, the Texas government has been forced to take on that role. We have a huge wall on part of the border, but that has not aolved the problem. It is a very expensive problem and so there is a shortage of border guards. Don't even get me started on the political aspect.
