And especially now that it’s become a political battleground. Seriously I emailed trump last week and simply suggested that we put a toll on those crossing in both directions and use that fund the wall and to just sit down with the opposing side and get the government open again.
And once that’s accomplished we should get the leaders of all Central America and work towards preventing these mass exodus’s from reoccurring.
But I know where I live and who I’m dealing with I should in reality just shit in both hands if I ever want to see any progress.

I believe we once had a toll thing on the border. I think I read that in one of the articles below I posted for silverotter.
And you're right. As long as we're interfering in governments south of us nothing will change. Mexico's new progressive president has suggested a coalition, inviting the US and other Latin American countries, to create a fund to deal with immigrant issues. But you can bet his idea is based more on the real issues over what the US has in mind. And considering most of those depend on US foreign aid to the tune of 10's of million each year, it doesn't benefit the US or the corrupt governments. If the US and its corporate masters can't plunder the entire country it's not worth their time. With only a handful of countries to colonize now that just isn't going to happen.
"The decision to prosecute all who cross the border illegally". Has that 'crime' changed from being a misdemeanor? A misdemeanor is like jaywalking. If that is the bar DHS wants to set to allow border patrol to separate true family units then IMHO the administration and the folks running are violating human rights. It is cruel to do this to children. If it is proven this woman lied then fry her ass good.

The border use to be open to cross. Actually the first idea to wall, actually wire, the border was in the early 1900's. That wasn't to keep immigrants out, but to stop the flow of sick cattle from spreading a disease. Sharp increases of prosecutions didn't start until Bush Jr. in 2005. Anyone seeking asylum could cross the border and report to an immigration center without detainment.
I just read this article the other day. I can't remember if I posted though.
This one goes more into the laws.
I hope like hell that Senator Merkley can take this lying bitch down.
