Don’t agree. The reasons are several, but let’s start with one.
A fence serves the purpose of marking limits. There are those who need the reminder. There are reasons that I have doors on my home, and those that lead to the outside are equipped with locks. That fence, that door, those locks, serve to make it clear that passage is on MY terms, not the whims of any passer-by.
Will a fence, any fence, completely halt the invasion that we call illegal immigration? Of course not, any more than bank vaults completely halt bank robberies. But I rather suspect you will find few banks not so equipped.
Let us get this straight. This is OUR country. We have every right to admit, or to refuse to admit, anyone we wish, based on any whim. We owe no one anywhere a reason. We do, in fact, admit more legal immigrants than just about anyone, more than I think wise but that is a separate issue. We certainly do not need apologize for restricting entry.
I would agree that interior enforcement needs to be improved. So do consequences for the continuing invasion. Mexico is the worst offender by far, so bad that I for one would support not only a complete renunciation of NAFTA, but I would be agreeable to a declaration of War as an appropriate response to their long running policy of reconquista.
