    This makes my blood boil. Should never have happened and many more like him will be threatening your communities.
    Protecting our families and communities from these low life's has to be a priority.

    Would be nice if all of the non threatening immigrants could just walk up and get the help they need from the border without having to sneak across.

    It would sure make it easier for us to keep track of POSes like this.

    Would be nice if we took care of US Citizens first.

    How are they mutually exclusive? Immigrants aren't preventing us from taking care of us citizens as far as I can tell...

    Any effort or funds to help illegals would be better served on people in the US struggling. We have no obligation to provide care for people in another country when people are shitting on the streets here.

    If we are giving help to people from out of the country, that takes away from help to be given US Citizens. Its a zero sum game.

    And that's not even taking into account criminals such as this in Las Vegas.

    We can easily divert the money we're spending on people shitting in streets here toward housing them, and we'll need an expanded labor force to get that done.

    Immigrants are part of the solution, not a part of the problem.

    They aren't any kind of solution.

    agree. Like anything this important there needs to be good solid management / immigration reform to better govern the border.
    My cousin lives in Yuma and loves the place but they are having so many issues in her community with violence and property damage.

    We don't have enough of either, and our robots aren't good enough yet.

    My University was the first in the world that designed and built a robot that could run on two legs. They now concentrate on robots that assist the physically handicapped.
    For those of you that may be interested the software was written in C++. Well that was 10 years ago so I have no idea what they use now.

    I don't have any professional experience with robotics exactly, but I do work in manufacturing and keep up with machine learning, rapid prototyping, 3d printing, etc.

    We aren't close to having robots which can build houses. Closest we are is 3d printing. Or pre-built panels. And you still need labor to assemble them.

    Again, immigrants are a wonderful solution here. This is a win win situation.

    They have robots that help the disabled.
