Easier to enforce the laws we already have. I'm all for a border with walls, fences and landmines but none of that would be necessary if we went after the emplyers of the illegals. We wouldn't need even a fence if nobody hired illegals. They'd stop coming and the rest would go home if only Americans could be hired in America.
I agree employers are the primary problem. However, we'd still need a fence. Mexico is such a cesspool they'd still want to come here, jobs or no jobs.
Fox insults us by saying the situations are similar both sides of the border. BS. Americans are NOT swimming across the Rio Grande to get into Mexico.
Apparently enforcing the laws we already have is NOT easy. And let's say, for arguments sake, the our government WOULD ENFORCE those laws. You have left out one of the most important points regarding border security. Terrorists. They could care less if they can get hired here illegally, or legally. Al Queda, and other terrorist groups, pay for their expenses. All a terrorist needs is to be able to cross our border. And with our open borders they can not only do so quite easily (as millions of illegals are proving every year), but they can even get through with WMD's, suitcase nukes, etc. It's not just illegal aliens that are the problem, although they are a huge burden on every taxpayer in the United states, it's the fact that we are in a War on Terror and we have left our borders open! How crazy IS THAT? Ahhhh, it's just as plain as the nose on your face.
You need to think about your reply. You are using logic. That can not be allowed. We NEED more laws passed so they can be ignored also. It gives the idiot politicians something to do. If the laws on the books already were enforced there would not be any need for the Jackasses and Jennies in OUR government. Then they would be unemployed and they could go on welfare.
