You hate to just assume the worst, but what’s to stop this bridge from being a conduit for illegal aliens and ISIS or other terrorists? I’ve heard its relatively easy for foreigners to enter Mexico, then sneak into the US, as compared to flying directly into The US. Someone please correct me if I’m wrong. In any event I am sure the Muslim terrorists know we have inadequate border controls as it is. See if we see them fly into Tijuana then walk across this bridge and be home free.

“Official sources have cited a rate of one-third and two-fifths of the illegal alien population as visa overstayers. Pew researchers have cited a range of 38 to 50 percent. The GAO has issued estimates of 23 percent, 31 percent and 57 percent using different methodologies.”

The easiest way for any illegal except the poorest of the poor to come here or for terrorists to infiltrate the U.S. is to cross legally on a visa and not risk being apprehended at the border. The State Department has 47 different categories of Visas.

I don’t see how this particular border crossing would be any different to any other border crossing or flying into a US airport, for that matter. In any case you would have to go through US Customs and Immigration, just the same.

...walk across this bridge and be home free.

Not until they are processed in at the US Border Control point. If they are not officially cleared into the country, it will be a walk back across the bridge to Mexico.
