The wall won't matter so long as the asylum loophole goes unfixed

It’s not until you get eight paragraphs into a new Wall Street Journal report about illegal aliens storming the U.S. southern border, overwhelming agents and hospitals, that you find the key: our abhorrent asylum law.

More border wall construction is crucial in defending America from an endless flood of unknown people coming from Guatemala (poverty stricken), El Salvador (overrun by the violent MS-13 gang), and Honduras (completely destitute). But forget about saving American schools and neighborhoods from these broken countries so long as we have an immigration system that says anyone who sets foot on U.S. soil has instant legal protection to stay.
