It hasn't failed. It's not large enough and PC rules the day. We need to root out the PC and the corruption and fund them to do their job correctly.
If our troops can help patrol every other country's borders than why not our own country?
This has all gone beyond serious it is now an obvious threat to our security.
We are being invaded here folks. Between the Ayrabs and the Mexicans soon it wont be safe to be in our own country. What will it take for the Congress and the President to WTFU and make a move? Citizens armed and fighting in the streets? Now we sign on to Cafta and send more jobs over the border, WTF is going on?
" Whats your answer to increase funding to an Border patrol that has failed and is riddled with corruption??"
They're grossly underfunded and undermanned.
They're restricted from doing their jobs effectively by politicians.
They even likely have a few bad apples that are hindering effective enforcement in some areas.
They are hardly riddled with corruption. That's a pretty disgusting insult to people who put their lives on the line to protect our borders, the vast majority of which a good people working within a broken system.
