So they swapped in a different pic...
Read the bottom of the article. There is no wall down at that border. This same story has circulated with a variety of false pics.

Photo inaccuracy aside, we have a right to protect our borders, and we should.

You mean like speaking Spanish, waving Mexican flags, and supporting all the Mexican national teams? Because if so... we already are becoming more like Mexico. As more and more illegal immigrants cross our border, we become more like Mexico.

I was going to expand on that to show the irony of the fear you mention with the solution but chose not to.

If you lived in California or any other border state, you would know the 'fear', as you call it, is actually reality. It's real. 48% of Los Angeles county is Hispanic. The Hispanics in CA have a plurality. CA has the most electoral votes, at 55. If you think that has no effect on how the politicians in CA pander to the voters, or how the state votes... you're naive.

And that has an effect on the entire country.
