I say yes.
German illegal immigrants swamped across the following borders:
Poland in 1939
France in 1940
Russia in 1941
North Korean illegal immigrants swamped across the South Korean border in 1950.
Pancho Villa and his band of illegal immigrants swamped across the US border in 1916, requiring a response across the Mexican border by the US Army (NOT the Border Patrol).
Border Security is a MILITARY PROBLEM, not a LAW ENFORCEMENT PROBLEM!
Pancho: “Hey Cisco, how are all of the routers doin’?”
