"open borders that allow terrorists to come in basically unchallenged"

We don't have open borders. You have been brainwashed by the anti-Mexican hate organizations if you can't see the vast resources we have allocated to border security. Do you think those long lines at border crossings are caused by toll booths? Why do hundreds of Mexicans die each year trying to walk for days across the desert if we have open borders?

Homeland security has already effectively sealed the Southern border to terrorists by making it too risky for them to attempt border jumping.

The phrase "open borders" is used in a figurative sense, not in a literal sense.

Keep waving that Race Card around, bayourod. Make yourself look foolish. Oh, and enjoy your next La Raza meeting.

ROFLOL!!
Okay. Now I understand. They can stop terrorists, but they can't stop several thousand gentle, kind Mexicans EVERY DAY?

Oh, bay, you're such a doll.

Here's a story for you. This is close enough to a terrorist for me, how 'bout you?

Esparza pleads guilty to killing nun


KLAMATH FALLS (AP) - Maximiliano Silerio Esparza pleaded guilty Tuesday to charges that he raped two nuns and killed one of them as they walked and prayed on a bike path last September.
Esparza, 33, was sentenced to life in prison without parole for the murder of Sister Helen Lynn Chaska, 53. He got another 10 years for the attempted murder of the surviving nun, and 15 years for raping the women.

In return for his guilty plea, Esparza avoided a possible death sentence.
In a statement, Edwin Caleb, the Klamath County district attorney, said he offered the plea for several reasons, including the surviving nun's religious convictions. Caleb said he didn't want to force the nun to testify.
"The most obvious reason is the certainty that this monster will be in jail for the rest of his life and never get the opportunity to offend again," he said.
Police say Esparza rode a train from Portland to Klamath Falls about a week before the attack. He visited a strip bar and then attacked the nuns early on a Sunday morning as they prayed on the downtown bike path.
Esparza head-butted one of the nuns, then raped them both while controlling them with the rosary beads around their necks, police said.
Chaska - who went by the name Sister Helena Maria - was strangled by her own beads, according to an autopsy. She was a nun with the Bellevue, Wash., Immaculate Heart of Mary, a small order unaffiliated with the Roman Catholic Church.
Several months before the attack, Esparza was detained and let go by U.S. Border Patrol agents in New Mexico even though he had spent three years in California prisons and had once been deported.
The agents did turn up an old drug charge in Oregon, but Multnomah County passed on extraditing him. The warrant was apparently the only evidence of Esparza's criminal past that surfaced during the checks.
Once Oregon declined to extradite, Esparza was treated like any other undocumented Mexican and was dropped off at the border.

Because they're being encouraged by people like you who promise to hire them.
