"Our border is unprotected; our first line of defense is not manned," Mr. Stein said. "After the attacks of September 11, there are no excuses. They want to pretend that we have a line of defense, even though we could secure the border if we wanted to. But we choose not to."
The only thing keeping our borders unsecured is a lack of the will to properly secure them. Perhaps that will shall appear if we get hit hard enough next time.
