J,

I didn't say the southern border was our only problem, I said it has been the bigger problem. If you take offense at that, I'm sorry. However, right or wrong, the statistics, reports, news, etc. that are put out the general public, or at least 75-80% of them, whether it deals with immigration, trafficing, whatever, mention points along the south, whether it be via land or sea. If you know of info that shows otherwise, I'd be interested in some new reading.

Also, as far as I know, and feel free to correct me on this, the southern border seriously lacks the funding and manpower it needs to do the job properly (as do many other areas). Of course, this is no fault of the Custom Agents, and Border Patrol personnel who work on the line day-in and day-out.

>>Don't take it personal Jim. Most of us, well, most of the people that I know anyway, know that our southern border has always been the bigger problem.
