There was a painful irony when France's immediate response to the terrorist attacks in Paris was to close the borders. If they had closed the borders decades ago, they might have avoided this attack.
Someone once said that the First World War was the most stupid thing that European nations ever did. Countries on both sides of that war ended up worse off than before, whether they were on the winning side or the losing side.
History may yet record that an even greater stupidity, with even more catastrophic consequences in the long run, was the European nations' decisions to import millions of people with a culture that was not merely very different, but hostile, to the culture, the values and the people of the Western world.
Even now, people who publicly warn of the dangers can be prosecuted in various European countries under "hate speech" laws.
And what about us? When, if ever, are we going to close our borders? When will we even take control of our borders, so that we can decide who, and how many, will be admitted? Certainly not before a new president takes office in January 2017 -- and maybe not even then.
Both Democrats and Republicans are responsible for failing to take control of the borders. In all the years that have been spent talking back and forth about every conceivable immigration policy -- and some that are inconceivable -- we could have built the biggest fence of all time, backed up by electronics, boots on the ground and whatever else it takes.
Instead, many have been pursuing the will-o'-the-wisp called "comprehensive" immigration reform. In other words, we are supposed to do everything all at once, like Obamacare. How well did that turn out?

“If they had closed the borders decades ago, they might have avoided this attack.”
Exactly.
Since Europe has imported about 10% of their population from Islamic rats’ nests, there is no reasonable, easy, or even civil solution to the problem.
They have to either surrender, expel, or kill.
Which will it be, France?
President Trump is going to close borders and have mosques watched and many of them deported.
Sowell is correct,as usual.
I do wish he hadn’t used the expression “boots on the ground” though. It drives me nuts.
.
Mr. Obama is going to continue telling us that we shouldn’t discriminate against these people & call our attention to climate change instead. Well,we know his plan doesn’t work,so maybe we need to try it Trump’s way...whether he is elected or not.
If Trump or a Cruz is not elected you will IMO see all hell break loose in this country.
Yup! Go Trump!
Although I’m nor sure how a mosque gets deported ;)
Bump for Trump/Cruz or Cruz/Trump!
All the people in the mosque could have their status taken away and deport them.
There was one near Orange County Ca, years ago closed for attempting to radicalize people and to carry out potential attacks.
Sowell—would that our leaders listened to this man.
comprehensive immigration reform = you can’t have the wall unless we have amnesty too
Sorry, I was being an obnoxious grammar weenie!
Obama’s Moslem invaders need to be repatriated to their own countries ASAP. They’re approaching critical mass already in several parts of USA
Obama’s Moslem invaders need to be repatriated to their own countries ASAP. They’re approaching critical mass already in several parts of USA — this is extremely dangerous for us and our families
An ordinary admin would infiltrate these mosques with local and FBI agents.
Absolutely, and no more allowed in the future.
France’s problem is different than many of the other European countries. In the First and Second World Wars, many Muslims from French possessions fought....and many died....on the side of France and the Allies. These people were welcomed(more or less) into France, and when Algeria was lost, many loyal to France were allowed to come to France as well. There was some pushback from the French people...and in some cases it was extreme, but France honored its obligations to the men who fought for France.....not any different from the US welcoming men from other nationalities who have fought for us.
Secondly, many who arrive in France illegally, are in transit trying to get into England where they find all the freebies such as we provide to ILLEGALS here. They don’t intend to stay in France and only have one objective in mind....get across the English Chanel to England where they have just about taken over the country.
England isn’t England anymore is the response i get when i ask Englishmen why they have left their homeland and moved to France. Tens of thousands leave G.B. every year and move to France even though they don’t speak the language.
Burn it down and start the fire with bacon fat might work.
