Border enforcement is only the excuse to build a paramilitary force akin to the Blackshirts or the Sturmabteilung that will do whatever violence is asked of them.
Dude, every country has borders and most take it seriously. In many countries, such as Poland, they shoot at people crossing the border illegally. A country with no enforced borders is no country at all.
If you want to revise your assessment to include the creation of this problem by having a lax border, I can agree with you somewhat. We should not require border police far away from the borders. But we do require it now, because certain malicious politicians let in a bunch of people illegally.
You're responding under the presumption that the official story about ICE's mission is accurate and sincere. I'm suggesting that it's a ruse to dupe people into accepting paramilitary enforcement of an authoritarian state. If so, arguments about border enforcement are just playing by the terms set by the propaganda.
