Why not stop these terrorist people from getting into

The above comment you made is so vague and generic as to defy
description.

So why don't you come back to the group and specifically tell us all
just exactly you would do to stop any terrorist from getting into
your country in the first place.

Doncha just love people who post anonymously?

The statement is not vague and generic. It's right on point!

How do we fix it? We've known for years how to fix it, but it
requires multiple US Gov. organizations to cooperate.

1) Identifying visitors to the US. On a student visa? Then it's
the school's responsibility to track the student. When a student
enrolls at a college or university, they are required to provide
the visa information (at least at all the schools I know of).
The visa expired? The school is responsible for a) expelling the
student and b) immediately informing INS.

Which then c) has the responsibility of tracking down this person in a
population of over 300 million. I suppose you could set up checkpoints
throughout the US where you would be forced to present your documents.
Papers, please?


2) Same process for trade/flight/whatever school.

Drastic? Yup. But remember, the folks on 911 were all on expired visas.

3) Here for tourist reasons? When I visit a foreign country, even the
hotel wants my passport. Why not here?

4) Here for business reasons? See #3.

So, Mr. Kontiki. Our latest audit shows that you have unaccounted for sales
of $350.22. Are you certain that you cannot remember what this was? Perhaps
if we talk to your family it will help you to remember.
