What is even more amazing to me is the nimrods who continually howl about the Mexico border and scream for action when the talk goes to terror.
Any halfwit with three functioning synapses can see that the real risk is from young males from Islamic countries who are here on student or other types of visas or who have overstayed such visas.
The second critical risk is our completely porous border with CANADA where they harbor hordes of fanatical sheetheads (two of whom they have caught here in the country illegally planning to do us harm).
Despite this, we have tons of "conservatives" here on Free Republic who bray continuously about the "security risk" at the border with Mexico! And, they pound the table continuously that THIS should be our first priority in addressing illegal immigration!!!! Such slack jawed drooling stupidity defies any rational categories I can see. There may be problems (I believe there are severe problems!) with some poor Mexican family swimming across the Rio Grande to mow our yards, but to act as though THAT is the security risk on our borders requires a willing idiocy that is clearly fueled by something other than concern for our safety.
There are also human smuggling problems with networks using ports and airlines. This has been the priority of Operation ICE Storm. I post a lot of their press releases. See FR Keyword Search: ICE
