How Many South Korean Illegal Immigrants Are In the US?

Here is the answer to the question, a lot:

The number of undocumented immigrants from South Korea in the U.S. has increased eightfold in 25 years to an estimated 190,000, according to a new report by the Migration Policy Institute.

South Korean undocumented immigrants now number eighth in population, overall estimated to be about 11 million.

According to MPI, about 9,000 South Korean undocumented immigrants — or about 20 percent of the 44,000 eligible for deferred action of childhood arrivals — have applied for the program.

Undocumented immigrants from Mexico top the list in population, at 6.2 million, followed by Guatemala, El Salvador, the Honduras, China, India and the Philippines.  [Korea Times]

You’re English is VERY CRUDE ❗ They aren’t “illegal,” they’re undocumented immigrants. You sound so inhumane ❗ To be fair, you should title your monthly USFK crime report…”USFK Illegal Citizens Court Martial Results.” Now, if you’ve ever been convicted of breaking a civil law then you’d be an illegal citizen 😳 Of course EGGHEAD is an ILLEGAL CITIZEN 🙁

Shut up. You’re part of the problem with the political correctness that’s spewing out of your mouth. If you exceed your visa period, then you’ve broken the law and therefore you are effectively an “illegal”. Your trolling is pathetic.

You are late to the Tbone Hate Party.

Tbone is universally considered such an idiot that there is no need to address anything he says.

Further, we have all become rather superstitious… and many if us truly believe if we respond, or even mention his name, he might show back up to ruin the conversation with more idiocy.

So… procede with care… and rest easy knowing nothing he writes is ever taken seriously or needs a response.

Calling it now. Just because he was mentioned, he will return within the month.

Hope I’m wrong.

So, what were you in jail for this time?
You last posted around July or August, and you’re back in December. Sounds like you got a year, reduced to 4 months for behavior.

Or was it rebab? Too bad that didn’t fix your personality…

Notice how Trump has stopped talking about building a wall. I doubt it ever gets built.

“Notice how Trump has stopped talking about building a wall. I doubt it ever gets built.”

Foolish people take Trump literally but not seriously. Smart people take Trump seriously but not literally.

The Wall is a concept rather than a physical item.

The goal is not a wall. The goal is to seal the border.

This can be a wall, a fence, sensors, or a line of rednecks with rifles. Who cares as long as the goal is accomplished?

Whatever happens, Trump most likely WILL seal the border.

The media and the foolish will still be stuck squeaking, “But… but… see! He didn’t build the Wall!”

Barry could have done the Carrier and Ford deals for Hillary; but he let Trump do it… The obsolete media and their sycophants are still trying to explain that away…

I don’t think President Obama could have gotten it done without going against liberal tax policies.

Pence said in an interview that he tried to offer tax incentives as governor of Indiana back in February. Carrier wasn’t interested because of the regulatory environment in our country.

Trump was able to accomplish it after the election by promising a more business friendly environment at the federal level in addition to whatever incentives were being put forth. I am betting the proposed tariffs helped cement their decision as well.

Koreans can’t have it both ways. They can open up little Korea towns around the world, but god forbid foreigners are welcomed on their shores.
