It seems the security is working very well. After all, the refugees are heing picked up by the authorities. What else is "security" supposed to do?
I think the problem is elsewhere? Can they stop the people from leaving their country in the first place? Can they stop them as they travel across Mexico? Security catches them when they cross the border. I am confused with the charges of "lack of security" on our borders??

I think rightwingers are just mad that these refugees aren't being shot on site.

Chances are the right wing "put the military on the border" calls are little more than security theater.
