All these countries are fascists eh? Pretty sure Spain has a socialist government,Greece I know has a socialist PM. Leftists love open borders because they can't get the actual citizens of the nation they want to run to vote for them so they have to import voters.
That makes absolutely no sense.

Of course, they have constructed the worlds largest concentration camp, minus the ovens.

According to your article, walls don't work. The article shows many pictures of people climbing the walls, standing on top of the walls, using ladders to get over the walls. And it goes on and on to say that walls are not effective.

Yet experts say there is little proof of their effectiveness in stopping people crossing borders.

No one wants open borders. There are better ways than primitive walls. Aren't we better than that? Can't we think of something more advanced than a dumb wall?
