A big jump in the number of illegal Chinese immigrants heading into the U.S. From January to September, Border Patrol arrested over 20,000 Chinese migrants arriving through the border, a total almost 13 times more than the same time last year. A volunteer serving hot oatmeal to the border crossers said one thing caught his eye. When we're used to seeing border crossers here, Central Americans, Mexicans trying to avoid the Border Patrol, and here we have this giant mass of Asians coming in saying, please, and they make this, please arrest me. Where's the guy who's going to arrest me? It's very unusual for this area. Some of them say they hope to escape the repressive political climate and the bleak economic prospects at home. The government was oppressing us and trying to collect our lands with a really low price. Then they asked a bunch of gang members and their staff to beat us up and have conflicts. Chen said this video clip shows local officers assaulting his uncle and fellow farmers. He adds that the journey from China to the U.S. isn't an easy one. It was not easy to get here. Climbing mountains and wading basically went through everything. Many of them first fly to Ecuador without a visa. From there, they trek through jungles in Panama's Darien Gap, then across several Central American countries before reaching the U.S. Many enter the country in the San Diego area. I don't know the future. I don't know. For authorities, gauging who truly needs protection can't be a touchy subject. Lawmakers saying over 90 percent of the illegal Chinese immigrants in 2023 are single adults. Officials are concerned that they could engage in espionage activities.
