The biggest threat to this country is people unwilling to look at evidence in an apolitical matter and make decisions based on feelings. THAT allows all sorts of bad things to happen.

National Security is not a default state. Civilization is not a default state. Freedom is not a default state. All of it needed to be earned, all of it needs to be maintained.

Some would make you believe it's an open door for ISIS which is really isn't.
They have it where borders are more tightly integrated than our borders.
