I address this in grizzly detail in The Dragon's Fury Series.
We need to control that border. I have no problem with legal immigration...but with such rampant illegal entries...we leave ourselves open to infiltration by the enemy. And in a post 911 wolrd, that is an invitation for disaster IMHO.
Ya think? The current concept of "Homeland Security", along with our 1st Mexican POTUS' lack of putting America first in such a critical time, really is of concern to many, many people...we have to WAIT until another slaughter of Americans occurs???
I was on the Texas border a few weeks back. I met with some folks that follow the hispanic gangs like the Mexican Mafia. And with some other people who's job is usually to "kill people and break things" as Rush says.
After chatting with them I would not get on a commercial airliner unless I really had to. Their big fear is that the Islamo types grease the hispanic gangs with enough cash to get them to pop off a few MANPADS at some commercial airliners. Which would be very easy to do. They said the kill zone is a 40 mile swatch to and from the airport. Put the device together in about a minute, get tone on the target, shoot and scoot. The bad guys are miles away when the target his hit. Which is what I expect happened to flight 880.
The gangers will do anything for a buck. Imagine how hard it will be to track the bad guys when they are not Middle Eastern but hispanic.
We have a bunch of idiots in Washington. Either that or they figure the number of people killed in various events is something they can tolerate. And that's it worthwhile to have illegals here because they work cheap and/or someday they throw an amnesty blanket over all of them and then they become real taxpayers and save "soch security".
I wonder what it's going to take to modify the thinking some people in Washington have on our border security. I hope I don't find out what the answer to that is.
