In fact. currently only 965 agents out of a total of 13.488 agents are stationed in the northonly 7 percent. Such numbers are ludicrous when we consider that our northern border spans over 5.525 miles and is almost three times as large as the 1.993mile southern border. 3 to 1 odds. That is exactly why the 9/ 11 Commission specifically recommended that the border between Canada and the United States be strengthened and that immigration controls be tightened. Now. it doesnt take a rocket scientist to figure out that if you put 13.000. or a little less than 13.000. border agents in one part of the country and you put 965 in another part of the country. and I want to do damage to the country. where am I going to come through? Where I have to face almost 13.000 agents in a third of the space or where I have to face 965 agents in three times the space?
