Should we have border security?

[Ban my account ffs!]

I'd prefer no border security between the U.S and Canada with passport checks only when you fly into Canada as a U.S. citizen from outside the U.S.

For Mexico, I'd prefer a much easier path to citizenship with strict punishments for companies that hire illegal immigrants.  I'd also support proof of citizenship for adults.

At the same time, I think the federal government should spend more on educating ESL children, legal or otherwise.  That just makes sound economic sense.

The only way I'd support a wall or a virtual fence is if we made it easy for Mexicans to enter the U.S. legally.  Offer "fast passes" for people who legally work here or have family here and also for people who have no criminal history and apply for entry a few days in advance.  People who just show up at the border should be subject to random searches and other scrutiny... but it should be streamlined.
