If the US was really serious about security, it would not treat its border with utter stupidity. Sadly, it will learn when the next terrorist attack was committed by those entering the southern border.

Its getting awfully hard for the government to ignore this problem. Whether they'll do the right thing is yet to be seen.

"If the US was really serious about security, it would not treat its border with utter stupidity."

You're absolutely right about that. Sadly, when it comes to dealing with illegals, politics trumps security...AND the will of the people, and that's true of both Republicans and democRATs.

If the US was really serious about security

...it would enlist and train a citizens militia to patrol the border day and night, with the full power of arrest.

That's roughly two thousand miles worth of border, as compared with the 5,600+ on the north...but HEY!

Who cares about the northern border, right?

Nonsense.

Any terror teams which are not already here will come from Canada. None but the dumbest would try to come over the Mexican border. Too dangerous, too uncertain and too likely to be detected. But from Canada it would be a cinch with none of the problems of a Southern crossing.
