Where is "the wall?"
Most people are probably familiar with the Kate Steinle story, and other similar stories, but the core of the “illegal immigration” problem pre-dates 2015.
Consider this story: Eleven years ago, on March 14th, 2007, off-duty police commander Benjamin Espinosa and his wife were shopping for a gift in gratitude for a successful operation on their hospitalized infant daughter. They entered the Lozano Garza jewelry store in downtown Monterrey, Mexico. What happened next was recorded on the store’s security camera’s.
This is the kind of incarnate evil that has been sneaking into our country for many years now.
Back in 2007, when the Espinosa “execution” story was reported, a team of Los Angeles Times reporters and photographers were regularly chronicling the drug-related violence that had claimed more than 6,000 lives in Mexico—in less than two years.
Today, that news coverage has dwindled dramatically—since cartel thug's began decapitating, disemboweling and burning the bodies of “journalists."
Today, who knows how many of these evil thugs have ‘migrated’ to the United States? Anyone who follows the news can see plenty of tracks. For example:
MS-13 is ‘taking over the school,’ one teen warned before she was killed
For the past year, the Trump administration has waged a nationwide crackdown on MS-13. Nowhere has this effort been more intense than in Suffolk County, where police say the gang has committed 27 murders since a surge of unaccompanied minors began arriving in 2013.

Ever wonder why the venue of the great majority of these stories are “gun-free zones?”
The corollary to "every cop being a part of the thin blue line” is this, "every law-abiding armed citizen is part of the wall."
Paraphrasing Pogo, we have found the wall and the wall is us!
