If the border policy were actually “open borders,” then why did the immigrants employ criminal smugglers?

It’s because the borders are closed. The predictable results are black markets, unnecessary crime, and tragedies like these. https://t.co/iwHF3cMHfo

A cop killed Philando Castile during a traffic stop when Castile told him that he was legally carrying a licensed handgun in his car. The cop was acquitted of all charges.

If cops can kill black men for legally carrying guns, then universal concealed carry obviously isn’t. 1/
