Teen jailed for TB denied having disease

Gee, lets just open the borders to anyone wanting to come here. No questions asked, no medical screen, no backround check for criminality or terrorism. Just one big happy family. Now we have Francisco Santos of Mexico, immigration status, unknown, so far. Santos is now incarcirated because he walked out of a treatment center with the aim of "heading back to Mexico". We have got to close the borders and deporat any and all illegals, NOW.
