I dont believe in open borders. We are going to criminalize the action of putting up these tunnels. We are also. with the Immigration Law Enforcement Act. we are going to allow local law enforcement. and there are 700.000 local law enforcement. Wouldnt it be nice to allow them to voluntarily assist the 2.000 ICE agents in this country so when we have a situation in the future like we had on 9/11 where four of those hijackers had been stopped by local police for speeding prior to the attacks. they can call into that hotline and. if there is suspicious activity. can look into the immigration status of those people who are here in this country illegally. Let me also say that the Community Protection Act is coming up under this rule. and criminal gangs today like MS13 are no longer just the neighborhood kids who may be up to no good. the kinds of gangs we remember from our youth. because we have transnational criminal gangs active around the country that now resemble organized crime syndicates. They have highly organized leadership and organizational models. and networks that stretch across this Nation.
