I don't understand the argument that a wall is pointless because it can't keep EVERYONE out and some people will make it through. Yeah, that's true for all attempts to curb immigration but most people won't be able to make it and we can supplement with other methods to cut that down even more.

Jails can't keep all the dimocratix in. Criminals escape all the time. Are jails pointless?
