What I've read does not leave me confident that they will be stopped permanently.
Me either, but I am not privy with the governments of border states and what they are saying about allowing troops in their state. But the federal government has one job even the most libertarian among us would agree upon, To Defend the Country from Invasion.
I just know that we all become border states when they allow unchecked immigration of illegals. The American public kids itself when it notices a huge group of illegals but ignores that 100s of thousands are people are crossing yearly and it gets ignored.
What do I think, I think Trump's suggestion to militarize our border with shoot to kill orders would be all that is required to stop the flow to a trickle and it would save lives in the long run (kids dying in the desert). Shoot 10 people and save 1000s of lives in the long run.
