What will it take to get the borders SHUT once and for all? Even these Seattle Libs have an inkling there's some real danger out there.

[Endeavor]

Nah, you don't say?

[holyscroller]

Aren't we lucky to living so close to these nice guys from the religion of peace? It might be nice if Uncle Sam would fix those broken cameras and put a little more effort to seeing who's tripping across that border.

[McGavin999]

Good grief, it must be dangerous if even the libs are waking up. The government better take care of this pretty soon or the citizens will take care of it themselves.

        yeah yeah .. whatever

Future Democrat voters??

[Mr.Atos]

City officials in both Seattle and Portland have pledged not to cooperate with the office of homeland security. Along with Vancouver BC, these cities have become breeding grounds for Anti-American hatred as well as Islamofascist hotbeds. Is there any wonder why?

Vancouver is but a small part of the Northwest problem. The Washington border is a long stretch through some of the most rugged and desolate country that this nation has to offer. Not to mention that the ferry crossing from Victoria to Port Angeles is a vehicle ferry and a tremendous security concern.

[Paleo Conservative]

We have real launch pads. Why not use them against Al Qaeda in Canada.

[baltodog]

We could witness another attack, and the threat STILL wouldn't be taken seriously.
Do the powers that be think these people are coming here to do roofing and construction?
I've said it before and I'll say it again:
Although I do not by any means endorse it, there will be vigilante killings in American streets if there is another attack, the law be damned.

The way I see it, this works in our favor. It finally gives us solid grounds upon which to attack Canada. Now we can be done with them once and for all.

What the......??????

[swilhelm73]

What was the name of the guy we caught a couple years ago sneaking into Canada? Ressam I think? He had explosives and was going to attack LAX.

Having crossed the border in WA state, I have no idea how they caught him...my experience was a couple questions and a wave through.

BTW, Ressam told the Canadians he was a terrorist before they let him in...

What will it take to get the borders SHUT once and for all?

It will take you and everyone else that is concerned about it calling or writing their representatives (not email, a letter or postcard).

When did you last call them?

Here, I will help you out.

KIRO TV.com - News: "Team 7 Investigation Finds Terrorist Threats Across Border Chris Halsne KIRO 7 Eyewitness News Investigative Reporter" (ARTICLE SNIPPET: SEATTLE -- Terrorists are using Canada as a launching pad to illegally enter America. An exclusive KIRO Team 7 Investigation uncovers not only are terrorist recruitments going on in British Columbia, but holes in border security between there and Western Washington are an open gate, letting terrorists walk right in. KIRO Team 7 Investigative Reporter Chris Halsne exposes the threat from Vancouver. This city wants to be known as our friendly neighbor to the north and host for the 2010 Winter Games. However, a KIRO Team 7 Investigation discovered it's also home to 55 known terrorist organizations, some of which would do anything to kill Americans.

Words fail me...

I deal briefly with the Canadian border situation, in addition to the Mexican one, in this week's column. And I wrote about the security risks, as opposed to the volume problem, on the northern border. Click below.
