And won’t stop random ships that are simply floating along
Nobody crosses into America from the sea illegally
Unless it’s smuggling
Which is very rare
That’s a lie-
Tunnels? They exist now but vast majority do not use it - the wall goes below 10 feet
And it’s concrete.
No they bring people via boat alright
Along with guess what?
**drugs**
Yes that’s smuggling, and they’re usually caught
Not as much as you thing
The ocean is a big place
Hello
And before you try to rant about increasing coast guard because **aparently** throwing enough people and wasting enough money can solve any issues
The borders however are not, we have constant surveillance of the us waters
Nobody gets in without screening
Keep in mind that a boarder patrol agent probably could be a 10th the cost of a coast guard agent
We don’t need to increase coast guard resources, it’s already sufficient.
But it isn’t as effective as you believe it
The wall works, which means people en mass stop entering illegally
They have radar, yes, but it has its range
Drive a dozen miles off shore
Disappear from radar
Drive up a bit
Re enter radar
And just float along like a privately owned ship
Planes? Same ordeal
Huh?
We don’t let in random boats btw
Forged papers
Never heard of verification?
I’m struggling to follow your point though.
Docking on random parts of the coast that are barely populated
Good thing we have authorities everywhere
My point is a wall will probably decrease the immigrants a bit for a while, then after they discover the other ways which can’t actually be stopped easily, they’re going to flock to those
Dude old fences have been very effective in reducing crossings for years - compared to nothing.
And next thing you know they’re paying drug cartels to smuggle them in via tunnels and ships
And I don’t think you want drug cartels making money
