The more things change, the more they remain the same, eh?
It appears that the government has NEVER had an interest in securing the border until the electorate gets loud enough about securing it. There's a lot of deep thought in that sentiment, that goes in all directions.
I do, however, take exception to defining "wetbacks" as "illegal immigrants" They are illegal "aliens", not "immigrants" of any sort. Immigrants go through immigration. It's kinda built right into the phrase, y'know? That "immigration" nonsense in combination with "illegal" is just another attempt by "progressives" to direct the conversation by redefining words to mean nonsensical things that they cannot logically mean.
I'm good with securing the border with a 500 meter wide mine field, a wall on the far side of that, and machinegun nests on the near side of it. If honest folk want to come here in an honest manner, there are already mechanisms in place for that. if they want to illegally invade a border, well, there are effective solutions for that, too - they are just not being implemented.
It's not just Mexican nationals any more. Folks from all over the world are crashing the souuthern border via Mexico... and most of them are just here to wrecck the US. If they were here to help, they'd go through legal channels. So I have no qualms whatsoever about blowing them up or mowing them down. They're not coming here to further YOUR interests. They are coming to wreak havok.
