Democrats argue the Wall would be useless because most illegals fly into the US, so...

Surely they would accept plain clothes covert police doing random security checks on board planes both domestic and international to verify citizenship/green card status? Right?

Mid-flight? And only one way off the plane?

Enforcing the laws passed by our duly elected congressmen and sign into law by the President is authoritarian?

Well maybe we could build a 35,000 foot high wall.

We could even install uniformed officers at international gates to verify passports/visas for EVERY passenger. I think we should call the new department “customs”. Has a nice ring to it, right?

No, because probable cause matters. We aren’t Israel.

Why do it on international flights? They will be checked at Passport Control and Customs anyway, why a third time on the plane? They are already going to get inspected upon arrival.

Don't see the need for it on Domestic flights. Why not busses then? Trains. Oh for those in cars, passport checks at every toll booth. You really want that?

We already have department of homeland security doing a piss poor job at this, thanks. Cops would run out of jurisdiction real quick.

Maybe Democrats do...

... however not being one I can tell you any of those illustrations I've seen so far won't do the job. Nor would they keep me out. You can build any of those walls (most likely any wall) an once seen I'll have a way over it in an astonishingly short amount of time and then have a transportable method not long after that. I'm an old time (trad) rock climber and you fast talkers don't have a clue how resourceful these people will prove to be.



This for instance is Tamul Falls in San Louis Potsi*, it's a mandatory portage for whitewater paddlers, and the children have a lucrative cottage industry carrying your boat straight up for $3 dollars (American). And the paddlers know not to muck it up by giving them a five. It's well know, passed down by those who's gone before to have 3-ones with you, to help keep inflation down, they're way happy so don't screw up the cost of food, lodging, transportation, etc. like the common tourist has in most places. Anyways the gist of the story is, these little farts have nailed all manner of bamboo and bit's -n- pieces of scrap wood, to solid rock using up to 60d spikes (nails). On first look it appears (way) sketchy but after seeing those kids hand passing kayaks and canoes 340 feet up it's not so bad. You have to scale up after them too, men, women, and children do; it's the only way in or out except by boat. Build your wall and these $3 kids will have a way up and over faster than you can say give me a refund pleasee.

Don’t arrivals on international flights already line up to show those documents and that information at a little booth in the airport?

Domestic flights? seriously?
