You don't think that people walking freely into the country, at will, doesn't pose an extreme security threat?
You see, that's why a lot of us can't take these security "alerts" seriously. If they were serious about security, border security would be priority 1.
That they allow the situation to continue largely unaddressed, and even hint at amnesty for those who are already here shows they are not serious about these security threats.
Meanwhile, they are concentrating on threats that are mostly played out. Although I do admit that the cargo plane angle is a possiblity. Still, that can be handled by explosive sniffers, geiger counters and dogs to make sure that no people smuggle themselves on via a large package.

We need our military to protect our borders. And we need to replace Ridge, who at best is a dimwit. His support of amnesty for criminals makes him a danger to our security.

What I said was shutting the borders down will not stop the threats or atttacks

Hmmm. I agree with you on one level, I've been baffled by the lack of interest in making the borders more secure. Granted, we're talking about a *lot* of territory to cover, but we all know there is much more that can be done. In that case it seems like political correctness has overtaken common sense.
But on the other hand, I don't see that unfortunate border issue as negating the worth of the other warnings we receive. I still take them seriously.

You see,No, you are the one who needs to see. Right now you aren't seeing a damn thing. And before you wax rhapsodic over illegals, I am sitting pretty damn close to the border, so spare me what you consider your "superior" knowledge, because you clearly do not have a handle on what is going on.
