The US should be taking over the whole lake and putting a secure border fence somewhere south of it.
I don’t disagree, but the fighting spirit of America has been quashed for a “kinder, gentler” spirit, a spirit of fellowship and peace.

EXACTLY!
In times past--only a few decades ago--the U.S. Government would have done exactly that, and the U.S. citizens would have demanded it.
This is how far the U.S. has descended into DECADENCE!
It is the Left that IS Decadence. The Left is the champion of Decadence.
The Decadence burst forth into the open as the Hippie Revolution of the 1960's. Its groupies waxed sublime as they gave it some sort of exaulted status, but it was nothing more than permissiveness, self-indulgence, and the rejection of responsibility run amuk among the spoiled, overindulged brats of the generation who prevailed over the Great Depression and World War II and thought they were giving their children the best that life can offer.
They could not know that what they were producing was a generation of nasty, spoiled, irresponsible brats, who rejected the values of their parents and grandparents and couldn't wait to get to Pleasure Island with the same results it produced in Pinnochio. (The jackass as the mascot of the Democrat Party could not be more appropriate, in this context among others).
The Hippie Revolution claimed high-minded values. Its real values were pleasure, self-indulgence, and irresponsibility.
Now those Hippies are running the U.S. The results are as disastrous as they were predictable.
I can't help wondering how the men--men? most of them were under the age of 21--who walked directly into machine gun fire on the beaches of Normandie would have felt if they had known what the next generation of Americans would be.
Decadence has the U.S. in a death grip. Irresponsible, self-indulgent and overindulged brats are responsible for it.
