That's why you build a border fence - to keep people out in the first place and to keep them from coming back once deported.

Ever hear of tunnels? And for the Al Qaeda financed, small airplanes or speed boats along the California coast.

" Ever hear of tunnels? And for the Al Qaeda financed, small airplanes or speed boats along the California coast."

Wow, going to bayourod route. "A fence can't stop everybody, so why build one????"

Here's a clue for you:

Security is done in layers. Because each layer, by itself, can't deter everybody. So you build up different layers of security in order to create a whole system.

By your "logic" (which is just a rationalization for doing nothing), you shouldn't lock your doors because a thief could just come in through the windows.

In the real world, people realize an argument like yours is idiotic. You not only lock the doors, but you secure the windows. You put up motion lights to detect and deter people coming close to your house. You keep bushes (except the sparse, prickly kind) away from windows so people can't hide behind them. You get a dog. You get a security system. And if they get through all that while you're home, you have a gun.

The utterly bankrupt argument you make is tantamount to saying "eh, why bother? A fence can't stop them all!"

People like you are part of the problem, because instead of working to solve the problem, you make excuses as to why it can't be solved, and give cover to the weak politicians who sell out our security.
