No. It is a metric of how many people were caught crossing the border.Still trying to pedal that notion that arrests are the reason for the crisis?Its the official numbers from the Border Patrol. You are simply ignorant.
So official your dumbass provided a link huh?

Time for you to cue up some hysteria about Schumer, Pelosi, Obama or Clinton as your standard deflection. Or you can issue more racial slurs toward your betters. Anything to distract from the ass whooping you just got.
Arrests of people crossing the border is an indicator of how many people are attempting to cross the border.
Its much lower now than it has been historically. So if the “crisis” is caused by people trying to cross the border…logic would indicate that the conditions do not support the allegation that there is a “crisis”.
Now, where is your statistic that shows for every arrest, X number of people crossing were not caught. That would be the definitive indicator of what kind of crisis we are facing.
I’ll let you provide some official numbers on how many people get through. I did see where the BP claims 81% success rates in apprehensions.
Bloomberg - Are you a robot?
So if 400,000 is 4 of every 5; that would mean its about 100k or so are getting through.
I’ll be happy to see your statistics and your sourcing if not the CBP…after all they are the boots on the ground.
