If less than 100% apprehension is acceptable to you . . . how many vaporized cities are you willing to accept?

Are you incapable of understanding that a very high apprehension rate would be a significantly more desirable than a very low one? The nuke-carrying border crossers in question could very well be appreneded by the NG troops (or extra Border Patrolmen) I advocate deploying. The fewer troops we have deployed, the greater the chances of a terrorist getting through. Odds, Poob, odds. Geez, it's as if I'm talking to a 5 year old kid.

The problem is that the US Army relies on the National Guard to be deployable. Put them on the border, and the US Army can't go anywhere else.

You're so full of sh/t it's coming out of your ears.

Sorry, that is how the Army works.
