Do we really need airline security?

Why is our country spending millions on air security and also invading air travelers' privacy with xray-type machines? Why not just let anyone fly in over our borders? We could save a lot of money. And why are we enforcing the Canadian border with enthusiasm? If we pull the border guards from there, we could save additional millions.

If we allow people to flow over the Mexican border unchecked, what's the point of enforcing our other borders? Are terrorists coming over the southern border less dangerous? Could it be that if Islamic extremists filter through Mexico, we can automatically assume the Mexicans' loving and peaceful attitude toward us will render terrorists peaceful, loving immigants, too?

And what's the deal with accusations of racism against Mexicans? Seems to me the Mexicans have been coming in ILLEGALLY with little enforcement of the laws (getting a free ride) while all other borders are tightening. Doesn't this make a case for racism against Canadians and fly-ins? Do we catch and release other illegals, even when they are obviously law breakers above and beyond the original sin of entering illegally? Nope. Only Mexicans get that break. Seems to me Mexicans are victims of favoritism, not racism.

OofDah! Let's be fair and unbiased. Let's tighten the southern border to compare with the northern and fly-in borders. And while we're at it, let's treat Mexican law-breakers like we do other illegals - with no favoritism for brown skin and Latino accents.
