[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why do we not do anything to lock down the border? Mexican cartels are worse than ISIS. I’ve seen the ISIS videos and the cartel videos. Cartels are even more depraved. Yet democrats are fine with porous borders letting in whoever [/quote]

Republican with a tenuous grasp of geography:  The US-Mexican border is 2,000 miles long. It's like driving from DC to the New Mexico/Arizona border.

"Why do we not do anything to lock down the border?"  :D  :D  :D [/quote]

The point is, Democrats act like it’s not even an issue in the first place and they don’t want to do anything to dissuade them from coming illegally. Yes it’s a 2000 mile border but the USA is the world’s preeminent superpower. We are not unable, we are unwilling. The best way to stop them is to remove the incentive by not tolerating illegal immigration and punishing anyone here who economically aids and abets illegals. [b]Make it economically untenable to employ illegal immigrants and the incentive to migrate here will go away. [/b]Easier said than done of course, but not impossible. There are political agendas in the way though.[/quote]

Perhaps I have missed where Republicans have proposed legislation to do this? Because I don't think they have. In fact, it was Republicans that were key in tanking Trump's wall provision. In fact, what immigration legislation has been proposed by Republicans at all?[/quote]

It's coming.  In about a month.  They just held some hearings on the border.  Legislation comes next. 
The Democrats held NOT ONE HEARING on border security when they held the House.  Time for a change.

Biden has f'ed up the border so badly it will take a lot of work to get it back to a more secure state.  Then, we have to find the 2 million or so people Biden has transported into our cities who do not qualify for asylum and get them out.  Then, there is the problem of the 1 million + got aways that have crossed our border thanks to Biden's open border policies.

At the same time, we have to deal with the cartels that essentially control our border.  Take them out.  Bring in the military.  If Mexico doesn't cooperate, too bad.  This problem has become massive.  We can start with the cartels operating within our borders.  Arrest them.  Lock them up.  No bail.  
Enough with the nice guy approach.  Time to get tough.  [/quote]
