My ancestors came from Russia/France in the 1900's.

I understand what you are saying, and agree to a point. If we block off the Mexican boder though.....the resourceful and determined ones will find away around an expensive investment by the U.S. And I'd be very surprised if illegal crossings didn't increase at the Canadian border as a result. What then?
Russian/French.....cool. I was just curious because, for example, as a Irish-German I'm aware of many racist sorts policies and actions my ancestors faced. Unfortunately, it was part of the price they paid; but I just don't think it was right, obviously.
