Nonsense Illegals do not gather in the thousands at spots looking for jobs. I would doubt if any more than 15 or 20% of these demonstrators are illegals in any case. They are the standard Leftists, democrat politicians, school kids, community leaders etc. Most illegals are too smart to expose themselves and are also at work.

You might be surprised to know that "border enforcement" is not mentioned in the Constitution. In fact, the only concern the Founders had about the borders was to make sure any goods coming over them paid the tariffs. It is an Implied power. Illegals were never a problem until around the Depression and people wandered back and forth across the border at will. No one cared.

Walls won't work and are not the right thing anyway. If miles of scorching desert where you may lose your life don't stop them a wall won't. And Israel is not comparable to the US.

Illegals are a reflection of the wealth differential between Mexico and the US and will never be solved without Mexico achieving a substantial boost in its economic status. Just as you would cross a border to support your family in a desperate situation so do the Mexicans.

This is not a problem simple solutions will solve.

At this point in time the ONLY result that could come from the anti-Illegal hysteria is damaging the GOP and the Nation by assisting the Party of Treason.

Well, I can only speak for my area, but every day around the Home Depot on Sunset Blvd in Hollywood, near where I live, I see 60-70 Hispanic men (dressed very much like those I see fresh from Mexico) and they are indeed gathered ... clustered, really ... around the two entrances to the HD parking lot.

This sentence is positively delusional.

Illegals are a reflection of the numbers of criminals both here and abroad who are willing to openly break our laws when there is financial gain to be had. The only possible long-term effect they can have is to ERASE the wealth differential that we now enjoy.

That's correct, but what you're leaving out is that you're going to get to donate a big chunk of your earnings to reduce your income and bring someone from south of the border's up to par with what you have left so we can be "harmonized" into one big 3rd world cesspool.
