Fox News’ Tucker Carlson went head-to-head with Enrique Morones, founder of the pro-immigration group “Border Angels,” on Monday — and the results were explosive.

“I mean, I know you’re from San Diego and your racism and ignorance is very well known,” Morones said.
“The Mexican government has given instructions to people, I’ve seen it with my own eyes — on how to get across the border,” The Daily Caller co-founder said.
“But the point is — hold on, this group of people, could be stopped any time by the Mexican government, which again, you feel the need to make apologies for,” Carlson continued. “But they detain people all the time in their country from Central America, as you know. But they’re not detaining these people because they say they’re going to El Norte. So, they’re a hostile power. But why should we have to accept anybody who comes here?”

“Most people aren’t coming to the United States,” Morones said. “Most undocumented people go elsewhere, they have no desire to come here. Of the 250 million undocumented people in the world today, the United States has 11 million, and that flow has shifted dramatically — it dropped 40 percent in the last five and a half years.”
Carlson continued to push Morones on why the U.S. should accept any illegal immigrants.
After more back and forth, Tucker dropped a bomb.
“So our sins are the reason — so you hate America is what you’re saying.”
“It’s interesting, you’re blaming America for illegal immigration into America,” he added.
