Really! So if we were to open the boarders then we could stop
this
kind of drug trade.

It would be far simpler to legalize drugs. I doubt it would
significantly increase drug use and it would eliminate a significant

nor am I presently a drug user.

Eliminating the current illegal population is a moot point.
Preventing more from entering the country is possible.

My only objection in the virulent influx of aliens is the changing

Perhaps also the lack of regard for our LAWS?
Or maybe their bringing drug-resistant diseases like TB and others that
have been eradicated in the US? (definitely "virulent"!)
