Borders [View all]

So the GOP and the Nazi party is wanting to close off the border to immigrants.

Which border?

Our Nation is vast and connects to THREE oceans; Atlantic, Pacific and Artic Ocean. Including international borders we share with direct or indirectly with. Directly, Mexico, Canada, and Cuba. Indirectly with a body of water less than 20 miles, Russia, Great Britain Territory, and Hayti.

If we close the border totally like North Korea does with their Borders, imagine the cost and impractical means? If and i say If this was to be the case to actually be pulled off, it be the first since our borders expanded since 1780s. In other words, its just a high price talk point to get votes.

So who will we close the border to?

Granted, there is a fine line to advert those that fail to go about legal means and those who are legitimately running for safety.

If the GOP and Nazi talk point is just shut down the border, HOW?

I have the solution, simple!

Main reason that immigrants are crossing into the US is for saftey. Economy is another factor.

So, drug lords are the evil force of immigration, we declared war with them in the 80s, lets do that again and root them off the face of the earth!
