United States Border Patrol
By Jennifer Kenny |

1 Immigrants to the United States are welcomed through various legal points of entry. Since the early 1900s, though, the country had been aware of those trying to illegally enter at its borders. As early as 1904, there were inspectors called Mounted Guards operating out of El Paso, Texas. They tried to prevent illegal crossings, but their work wasn't all that consistent.
