The majority of those illegally here, came legally to start with, and let papers lapse.

Mexico says 2,000 US-made guns smuggled to Mexican criminals everyday
Our own Govt gave Mexican cartels, weapons in operation fast and furious!! There was no 'smuggling' here, they were shipped as normal freight.

Federal and state/local law enforcement RELY on these drugs coming in so consistently!


Cannot wage a long drawn out drug war if there is not a steady flow of drugs coming in.

It's how I feel about these terrorist organizations. I definitely think our government who have ties to the military industrial complex are funding these terrorists like ISIS, just so they can keep their illegal wars going and raping the American people of their tax money.

I agree, the war on terrorism is the same as the war on drugs, ultimately there must be continued terrorism, in order to justify waging a war against it.

It's not as simple as making a single sentence statements. Nobody claimed a border wall will stop illegal immigration 100%. The existing wall/fence/barrier has proven to work along the San Diego Tijuana border.

Quote:
"It was an area that was out of control," Henry says. "There were over 100,000 aliens crossing through this area a year."

Today, Henry is assistant chief of the Border Patrol's San Diego sector. He says apprehensions here are down 95 percent, from 100,000 a year to 5,000 a year, largely because the single strand of cable marking the border was replaced by double -- and in some places, triple -- fencing.
Apples and oranges. A gun law is not a physical barrier. Everyone could easily jay walk, but a physical barrier would making it very difficult to do so, making it not worth the effort.

OPs claims can be filed under BS.

You're never going to stop illegal immigration, the object of the wall/fence/barrier is to make it more difficult. It's like a lock on your door. If a thief wants inside your home/car/whatever bad enough, they will find a way in, but the lock slows them down, so hopefully, the police will arrive before they can make off with the stolen property.

I'm aware the liberals will use this same argument in favor of gun control, but we have this thing called the Second Amendment. There is no constitutional right to immigrate illegally into this country.

Bone spur continuously states that DRUGS come over because there is NO wall.
The real answer is that the ports are woefully under-inspected, likewise cargo planes, not to mention cars coming through the legal border crossings.

The mind of a deranged Leftist is really something to behold. Let me ask you, who is LEGALLY crossing the border at unauthorized checkpoints? The insanity in their minds is mind blowing.

Are you still repeating this nonsense is spite of the facts about the good walls? Do you have cotton between your ears? Once again, not all illegals are coming here for work so how does cracking down on the employers stop that problem?
