As long as there is a huge profit to be made we will never get this situation under control. Make it legal and the source will dry up. Sure right at first you are gonna see an influx but not for long. As we have seen companies can refuse to employ persons for their legal personal habits. Continue on the line of thought and it won't be long before the problem disappears.There are fewer people today smoking ciggarettes then ever before and it is still legal to do so, make it illegal and watch the smuggling begin and the jails fill up. In some states you can go to jail if your ciggs don't have a tax stamp because the taxes are so high there is a profit to be made by bootlegging. Compare with prohobition and the same thing happened and organized crime loved it.

These pinheads are in cahoots with the "human" smugglers and fire on US Citizens when they illegally cross the border with drug and humans.
This is an act of war. Im sure they will continue no matter what, until the US gets serious about border issues; which I doubt I will see in my lifetime.
