Seal the border and tell Fox and his hencemen to clean up their own country before trying to advise us on foreign policy and immigration

And how would you seal it? Come on I want to hear the details. Look at the most sealed border in the world, the 100 mile border between North and South Korea. It takes the US and South Korea billions of dollars each year to maintain it and it also takes a conscripted South korean army of 750,000 to man it. Now multiply the money and manpower by 20 and you have your "dream" of a sealed border.

There are many examples of border controls if a country really wants to control the borders. Ask Swiss how they controled the borders during WWII. It would take much less manpower to police our borders than it takes to man tens of thousands of government building airports, and seaports.

This is a bunch of baloney. South Korea is protecting its borders from an invasion from a North Korean Army! We only need to stop "mostly" un-armed people from entering our country. America is the most technologically advanced nation in the world. Put a little faith in your fellow countrymen to find the needed solution. Maintaining the mindset that "it cannot be done" will guarantee it never will be.
