Steve, this is what your snifter says:
"An open border is a border with no or minimal control, allowing for the free movement of people, goods, and services, which can be either a result of intentional legislation or a lack of enforcement."
It isn't subject to debate, there is no other side when it's a propaganda point. And your point here is dead wrong:
Steve: If you mean "open" as in any brown people allowed in, even if temporarily, while waiting for their hearing, then they appeared "open".
As stated previously, 10-15% of the people who came across the border were returned. That's not an open border. If there's an open border then there would be almost no one to talk to, no one there to stop them and for them to claim amnesty to, and there might also be no problem with drugs crossing the border. I've crossed open borders - there may be a sign there but that's it.
Here's Wiki:
An open border is a border that enables free movement of people and often of goods between jurisdictions with no restrictions on movement and is lacking a border control.[1][2
Here's Cambridge:
open border
a situation in which goods and people can enter and leave a country easily
Now as I've stated, we moved to right way, wrong way, which I liked, and I favor keeping them across the border till they are adjudged to enter. Open border is just good sound bite propaganda.
