Obviously not open borders, but not a wall either. There's a reason we have locks on our homes, same thing should be for the nation.
That said. 45% of immigrants [i]fly[/i] into the United States. And, most of the Mexicans are already here, lol. So building a wall is a really silly and wasteful thing to do. If drugs constantly get into the country illegally, people are going to, as well.
In addition, there was something called the "revolving door" in the early 80s and 90s, prolly before, where Mexicans would come here to work, then go back home to support their families.
Building a wall doesn't prevent them from coming in, but it makes it riskier or more challenging to go back home. So they stay. Which I am not averse to, lemme tell you I like Latinas as much as white girls; but, for point of argument: a wall is as dumb as burning great heaping piles of money.
There needs to be a different solution.

How about something reasonable

@AkAtSUki That’s because guns are sought in other states where gun laws are lax and brought into Chicago. It’s the same situation in California. For example it was found that the San Bernardino terrorists got their rifles (which is illegal under California law) in another state.

@SW-User my point exactly

@AkAtSUki I don’t see where I proved your point here. My point is lax gun laws in another state is what caused the San bernardino shooting. If gun laws were strict in states where it’s lax, shootings in Chicago would decline and the San Bernardino attack would have never happened.

we already have a couple of fences and walls and the rio grande - so just stop supporting them and arrest anyone suspected of harboring them - make it a felony

Neither. I'm pretty sure there's updated technology for securing borders, and maybe we revamp the entire immigration process so it makes sense to use.

@Carissimi Sure. My neighborhood is safe enough. I don't even lock my cars.
