Do we need more reasons why it is so important to be able to regulate our boarders?

Its time to build an Iron Curtain in reverse, to keep people out, not in and hire all the now unemployed KGB Border Guards to man it. Some land mines would make it work even better.
That is just the tip of the iceburg. The criminal aliens bring many diseases across the border that we normally control in our population through vacinations. It gets worse when you concider they bring stuff across that we quit vacinating for years ago because we erradicated it here. One could throw bio-terrorist charges on top of everything else with the criminal aliens.Quote:

This isn't about border control. The cases that have been reported in the US are cases of Americans who traveled legally. It doesn't take illegal aliens for this to cross the border and once the border is crossed, it's been crossed.

How many illegal swine do you think cross the border daily? (OK that's a loaded question!)
The CDC has been deployed multiple times for stuff coming across the border that never makes news.Quote:

Yes, other countries should be worried about travelers who originate from the southwest portion of the USA. Typical though for the Dems to lay the blame at Americans first. Lets not ignore where the real problem is and where it originated. Secure boarders now!!! And, if you really want to blame someone, blame our leaders in DC for all the deaths that happen north of the Rio Grande.Quote:

This would open up many possibilities from land mines to gun ships in defending us from either criminals or acts of war.
