And that's the difference between liberals and conservatives. You are trying to exploit this for future political gain instead of fixing the problem.

Did you just say this isn't a crime of drugs or crime or refugees? What is it a crisis of then?

---

Law enforcement. As in, Trump insists on actually doing it.

---

That's not actually true. If it were he would enforce the law where it would do the most good: on employers.

---

That would be quite traumatic for the economy as well as the workers who are already here.

Start by changing from "invaders" to "workers". Problem shrinks to statistical insignificance. Anecdotal crises, but statistical insignificance.

Border at 'Breaking Point' as More than 76,000 Migrants Cross in a Month

The number of migrant families crossing the southwest border has once again broken records, with unauthorized entries nearly doubling what they were a year ago, suggesting that the Trump administration's aggressive policies have not discouraged new migration to the United States.
More than 76,000 migrants crossed the border without authorization in February, an 11-year highand a strong sign that stepped-up prosecutions, new controls on asylum and harsher detention policies have not reversed what remains a powerful lure for thousands of families fleeing violence and poverty.
"The system is well beyond capacity, and remains at the breaking point," Kevin K. McAleenan, commissioner of Customs and Border Protection, told reporters in announcing the new data on Tuesday.

Opposing a border wall is like opposing school zones,

We need 'em, I don't give a rat's ass if you find them inconvenient.

---

You don't need to extend the school zone the length of the road. We can significanlyt slow illegal crossing by enforcing our laws, prison for violators, deportation after prison sentence, manpower, and technology, including border wall where it is practical and useful. Legalization of drugs, regulating them, and taxing them will go a long way to eliminating criminal drug trafficking and associated crimes. What we are doing now is not working and won't work unless the penalty is so severe no one will take the risk. Our country won't stand for those kinds of penalties. I don't think this country is willing to allow law enforcement to execute illegal crossers on the spot, and shooting down of undeclared aircraft flying into the country, which is what it would take to significantly curtail trafficking. We can make it easy for legitimate workers to come here and work and pay taxes.

TS: "You don't need to extend the school zone the length of the road"

You establish a zone as far as it's needed. I know a place where four schools are close to each other, and the school zone runs almost two miles straight, because that is what is needed.

We damn well need a physical barrier every place where Nature has not already put one along our Southern border. Saying otherwise is dishonest or stupid, or both,

TS: "We can make it easy for legitimate workers to come here and work and pay taxes."

False premise, No one is arguing against legal immigration, where criminal and medical checks are confirmed.

Why is it that that leftists place their moral superiority and their ideology over the results derived from it?

And as soon as you bring up the results...all their arguments refer back to moral superiority and ideology.

Rinse and repeat. This is why I don't think you can really get through to them without them being personally disenfranchised by their own medicine.

Common sense says of course they're being caught there because that's where law enforcement is.

The drugs that are coming from the border are going through areas where there are no barriers or enforcement.

OK, I see we have to go to basics:

Where there are barriers and enforcement, illegals get caught

Where there are no barriers or law enforcement, illegals are not caught and enter the country.

Building walls costs a lot less than man-hours, and historically is very effective.

---

You're blaming him for not executing a law, specifically a law that would be less practical and prudent to fully enforce than the law regarding illegal entry. But he has the discretion, within the faithful execution of the law, to emphasize different aspects at different times.

It's ironic that Trump supporters are accused of having an all-or-nothing mentality when that mindset seems far more apparent in your own arguments. I don't know anyone who's actually against hiring more judges, for example. That doesn't mean we should rely exclusively on judges when the system is suddenly overloaded with bogus asylum claims. Likewise, there's no reason employers can't be held more accountable as the border is brought under better control.
