Read the article...20K all of last year. We got 20K in one week. The numbers sited in your link are tiny compared to the flood that started 4 weeks ago.

There has been a massive increase in the number of children and adolescents making the dangerous desert trek alone, without family, officials say, sparking what President Obama deemed an "urgent humanitarian crisis," during a speech Monday.
That isn't "long before" any crisis.

So, you're not good with numbers. OK, I'll try to help out. This is NOT a case of 'hundreds'. Today the Texas Border Patrol reported that they are detaining 20K a week. They estimate they catch at a rate of 1:5. That means 100K a week might be getting over the border.
The number of DETAINED illegal immigrants now surpasses the birth rate of the entire state of Texas.
This spike began about 4 weeks ago. Do you understand now?
