"6 months ago I thought that an open border was a humanitarian policy and if you were for sealing the border it meant you were probably a xenophobe and maybe a racist.
I was wrong.
How did I learn I was wrong?
It wasn't that I just listened to the other side. It was when I actually visited the border. My views changed as I listened to border patrol officers, local officials, local sheriffs, the aid workers and to the migrants themselves"
