Mexico Border

Often times, I see a huge outcry from certain groups whenever you mention trying to seal the Mexican border.  These groups are usually either Mexican or Latino sympathizers, or liberals saying that they should be allowed to come here.

Two points with that and then we will get to the real need for security.  First, I think that most people that are pushing for border security are not doing so out of animosity towards a specific race or group of people.  Secondly, the idea that people can freely violate the law to come here, and be allowed to stay, and if the Democrats have their way, be offered legal status, is repugnant to those of us that are law abiding citizens and to the millions that have followed the rules and are often left waiting for years to be approved.

The current push for some form of amnesty has to be stopped.  We have done them before, and if we continue to do them, then the tide will never stop.  We will always have to guard the border aggressively and hundreds of immigrants will continue to die each year, while trying to make the illegal crossing.

But, though these deaths are regrettable, my main concern is centered elsewhere at the moment.
