my opinion: if you enter my house illegally, you're gone. anything else is just noise.
If given the truth, the people can be depended upon to meet any national crisis. The great point is to bring them the real facts - and beer.

Your fighting a battle you cannot win though. It is the price for an Empire, that the world you dominate eventually comes to dominate you. Both the US and Britain have followed the same path in search of wealth, our capital is now known as Londonistan by those who live there...Washintonabad sound ok with you?

It seems to me there is something inherently wrong with the concept of free trade and movement in goods, resources or food but not people.
Not that I would want open immigration, or indeed, to be told that I cannot leave.
