72. So we should just open the borders completely and let anything...
...wash across? Al Qaeda can ship in nukes, cartels can ship in drugs, other countries can ship in counterfeit goods, human traffickers can ship in women for the sex trade...?

That makes no sense whatsoever. And the same point you make about where people are applies to our borders. People do tend to cross in specific areas where resources can be allocated - and far fewer resources than trying to control the problem once it gets into the US if border controls are eliminated.
