We have been told repeatedly by the Current Administration and the Department of Homeland Security “The Borders Are Secure”.
Given the latest “Flood of Illegal Immigration” I once again question what I thought I knew.
It is evident I don’t know what ‘Secure’ means.
If my House is ‘Secure’ does that mean it could suddenly be flooded with people I don’t know? Apparently so.
If I’m ‘Secure’ in my possessions, does that mean I should expect random Individuals to overwhelm me at any second and take all of my stuff? Sounds like it.
If I’m ‘Secure’ in my person, does that mean any roving group can force themselves on me and do what they wish? Well… I guess… Yes.
I need to buy a new, updated for 2014, dictionary.
I wonder if I should get one in English? May be ‘Secure” means something completely different in Spanish…. or in Liberal Progressive, neither of which I speak.

It’s no longer about what’s best for Americans. Every decision, every move, every single solitary thought from this administration is about how to keep their power.
Sabes?

I don’t understand the flood of immigration on so many levels, but then again I spend half my time pondering the idea of smuggling myself OUT of the country in a shipping container, so what do I know.

In all seriousness, as I understand the meaning of the word, I want people to come here… legally. If there is a problem with the laws we need to address that. I’m going to repost something right now regarding this just for you IB.
