We haven't ahd open borders for a long time. After the Mexican American war the border gradually took shape and we've had disputes. I remember the current conservative extreme focus on the border erupting in 2006. I remember a black Samoan I knew getting very upset about =- he was tuned into your daily dose of outrage, and his marriage had gone south his great RV store manager's job disappeared and he was living in his Sea Ray boat withj his clothes in the back seat of he pick up truck. Gone was the Corvette with the flip flop green sparkly color. It was interesting because the stats showed the Latin American workers were leaving and going home.

Suddenly, everyone was against immigrants, even legal ones. There's a place on the 405 up from the border in CA that's an inland checkpoint - with signs warning people that women and kids try and run across the 405 there fleeing border agents.

But with Title 42 gone we can't return people quickly across the border. The border has been a mess for some tome now - say 40 years at least. I advocate (again) that we establish a processing system withing Mexico and maybe another at the Guatemalan border. Keep them there and penalize them if they cross the border first.
