US "PRIORITIES" are as follows. The best way to stop terrorists and criminals from entering the US is to secure the borders. The best way to secure our borders is to build a wall-fence barrier. Next, double the size of the Border Patrol short term. Frankly, the BP forces should be at least 50,000 strong. 100,000 would be right and proper.
Stop promoting liberalism on Free Republic.
LOL - liberal?! Here's my "best way" to reduce terrorist attacks - kill them over there before they get here. As a back up, make sure anyone identified as a possible terrorist NEVER makes it through a LEGAL point of entry. After you do all that, then we can talk about a wall.
