Letter: U.S. must have strong border

Many years ago my wife and I visited Mexico. While on tour with a number of other North Americans at Mexico City's City Hall, our guide was showing the mural by Diego Rivera when he suddenly stopped, looked and while shaking his finger at us, said that we "stole" the Southwestern area of the United States from Mexico. He went on to say that, "We (Mexico) will get this territory back; just you wait and see!"

And they will if immigration laws are changed. Don't let this happen.
