I camp there often. Much of the perimeter is fenced and there is considerable BLM presence there, mostly in helicopters. It's a beautiful and very popular park despite the danger. When my late husband and I used to hike in Big Bend NP we sometimes encountered illegals who came across the Rio Grande [on foot, as the river is practically dried up]. Last time I was there, alone, was in 2015 and it seemed safer, fewer thefts and drug traffickers. mockturtlehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10507310332014103437noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6329595.post-14980294808016651862018-12-29T20:39:18.901-06:002018-12-29T20:39:18.901-06:00Similar signs here:

They can always come up with a reason not to build the wall but have no credible alternative themselves. "Common sense immigration"? What does that even mean? Half of the country no longer believes either party on immigration and its left to Le Orange one to do all of the heavy lifting. The left is flailing and trying to change the messaging stat, as its a losing proposition.
