I realize this thread is about terrorists crossing the US/Mexican border, but the problem here in So. Cal. is the huge numbers of illegals crossing over and becoming a drain on the system here.
Anything that deters these Mexicans would be a help.
I understand your situation. The feeling was that security came first and hence the wall. The lessening of illegal immigrants would/should follow by default.
It's just a fact that you can pull a boat up to our shores almost any place and walk a half mile to a hotel with a suitcase (or a big fishing box).
It's the dots. We have to upset the dots.
