Open borders threaten our national security

A porous border in the quaint days before 9/11 was one thing. But a porous border while our homeland is being targeted by Islamist terrorists is inexcusable and dangerous.

It’s a simple matter of self-preservation. We need to know who is entering our country and for what purpose they are coming here. Does anyone doubt that trained, educated and well-funded terrorists would like to cross through our slipshod border security system to harm us?
