"I think we can find enough money to protect our borders.""They're obviously not protected enough!"
So then, which is it?
Are they protected or not?!
Huh?
What did I just say? - "They're obviously not protected enough", Right? That shouldn't be too hard to understand. And I don't care how many we stopped... I care about how many we didn't stop.
How many terrorists (or illegal aliens) we stop at the border shouldn't be nearly as important to you, me or anybody else as how many we didn't stop.
Af far as the infamous red herring "terorists crossing the border" argument, it's just that...a red herring.
It makes absolutely no sense for terrorists to try the most perilous way into the country, when they have the money and ability to enter the country legally, giving them far more chances to gain entry.
