Law enforcement doesn't stop all crimes but we still do need police officers. Israel has a wall, it doesn't stop all terrorist activities but makes it much more difficult for the bad guys than if there were a porous border, no wall at all. |

Extreme Vetting isn't a solution. It can be an aid, but I highly doubt it would have stopped this from happening. Had we had a wall he would have never got in the country.

You're absolutely right - there's no reason whatsoever to protect our border.

Here's the actual quote, and not a meme. Reagan was referencing the Bracero program, that in some part, was the onset of the illegal immigration movement, when restrictions were put in place by the Truman administration, due to union pressures.
I bolded the part that was conveniently left out ![]() "Rather than talking about putting up a fence, why don’t we work out some recognition of our mutual problems? Make it possible for them to come here legally with a work permit, and then, while they’re working and earning here, they’d pay taxes here. And when they want to go back, they can go back. They can cross. Open the borders both ways." |

I believe the new travel restrictions are currently in effect. He came from somewhere not on the list. Add Uzbekistan? And the next country? And the next? I don’t have a good solution either. My concern is that security reaches a point of diminishing returns, where you start to do more harm than good, either by not letting in the right people, spending billions, etc. Trying to balance that is tough, especially when emotions run high

A wall does nothing if the gate will be left open.
..and no I don't mean literally.
