Border management is, of course, keep some things out of the country, but also the borders should be open enough to facilitate the movement of legitimate trade and travel. This is not an easy balance to find in even the best of all time.
border enforcement requires the protection of nearly 7,000 miles of border between the United States and Canada in the north and south of Mexico, plus another 2,000 miles of coastal waters of the Florida peninsula and southCalifornia coast. Needless to say, a balance between border security and the legitimate entrance in the country will have a lot of work.
On a typical day, must recognize the border law enforcement process more than one million passengers and pedestrians, tens of thousands of road, rail and sea containers, and somehow, if one of them take drugs, Agricultural pests, currency or illegal Other Prohibited materials. Must somehow make their way through laborall this and yet still allow legitimate travelers quickly and materials in the country.
Each year, efforts to strengthen border security has brought thousands of kilos of drugs seized, arrests of large numbers of criminals and the arrest of thousands of people and between the ports of illegal entry.
Unfortunately, as all these people and containers are processed, can seriously slow down and inconvenience to everyone and everything that canlegally enter the country. There is nothing worse than having to use miles to wade through red tape, if you know there is no reason, additional direct path to safety.
But Border Patrol agents have no way to know before taking this really the time for each passenger or process container. Every year there are new technologies that help to streamline the programs of border police are - technologies, products or agents of a speedy trial to allow patrol areas orSea without going there physically. This may have helped accelerate the process, but there are still some concerns about how technology is used.
In other words, this is a different balance, border control officials have address the balance between security and privacy. It 'can control the cross-border enforcement policy in shipments, containers, and backgrounds peoples' without a serious violation of their privacy? When it comes to safety, is a bit 'Violation of privacy in it worth it?
These are the types of questions that are discussed every day in this country. There must be a balance between the many different facets of commerce, privacy and sovereignty, which does not seem to find an answer to satisfy. Until an answer is conceived, but the border security agents will continue what they can do to protect the country's borders.
