Isn't that exactly what the anti-immigrants want? Military troops with checkpoints saying "Papers please"?
No its what the "free traders" want. You see, they want everyone in the hemisphere to take advantage of America, but they still want the American citizen to support them with their taxes and lives in the US military. That would be the only reason for the "papers".
Notice that "papers" weren't needed until the globalist "free traders" corrupted our government.
Are you talking about anti-immigrants, anti-illegal immigrants, or both? If a foreigner is a legal immigrant, then he has our permission to come to the United States. Why would anybody have a problem with that? Also, any foreigner who legally comes to the United States is already required to show his "Papers please" when he arrives here.
"Isn't that exactly what the anti-immigrants want? Military troops with checkpoints saying "Papers please"?"
If that is what you take from it, you are mentally handicapped.
I see very few "anti-immigrants" here on FR...in fact, I think I can count them on one hand. If you are talking about anti ILLEGAL "immigrants"...then you need to say so and get your facts straight.
And yes, military troops on the border is not that bad of an idea...come to think of it. Better on this border, than in Iraq. There's nothing wrong with checking papers at an internation border, is there Bayourod?

YES!!! on the MEXICAN BORDER!!
We do not want their dredges in this Country.
Who exactly are these "anti-immigrants"? I've never met one, nor have I even heard of one before.
Now getting back to the original topic, ILLEGAL ALIENS who sneak over the border and take advantage of America's tax paying citizens by raping the land of money and resources without paying taxes to replenish them, and who often assume several aliases to avoid justice when they commit a crime or traffic infraction, and who make up THIRTY PERCENT of incarcerated criminals in California, and who drive without a license or insurance, and who make up EIGHTEEN PERCENT of California gangs who rape, kill and deal drugs; yes, we need to put a serious plug in our pourous borders.
Tight border control will not only serve to stop criminals trying to circumvent our immigration laws and bleed our economy dry, it will also help prevent terrorists and wanted criminals fleeing justice in their homelands from entering our country and committing more crime.
