What do you when your leftist prime minister "invites" young men of military age to seek more opportunities? 
You get women complaining about their personal safety or merchants fighting the aforementioned young men looting their stores. 
And you get Spain to build a containment barrier to keep the "opportunity seekers" away from your country - i.e., all 60,000 of them. 
I guess the Spanish P.M. cannot call it a fence for fear that his party will accuse him of sounding like Trump. 
Let's check this developing story : 
Spain announced it was installing a 500-meter-long (1,600-foot) containment barrier on the sea border between its North African territory of Ceuta and neighboring Morocco after between 50,000 and 60,000 migrants breached the frontier earlier this week. 
The death toll has climbed to 67, including some who drowned and others who were killed in a stampede to cross a breakwater barrier, the Spanish government said Saturday. 
A handful of exhausted migrants who swam to Ceuta's urban Tarajal beach Saturday morning were met by soldiers who escorted them back across the border. 
Spain's interior ministry says the majority of those who entered the Spanish territory in North Africa have already returned to Morocco. 
"We are relentless against those who break the law," Spanish Interior Minister Fernando Grande-Marlaska told journalists in Ceuta on Saturday. 
Relentless against those who break the law? 
Please explain that to the women harassed by "visitors" or shopkeepers fighting looters. 
The interior minister's statement about those who break the law will definitely go down as the joke of the century. 
It was this socialist government that set the table for something like this to happen. 
Installing a fence now is okay but way too late. 
The unintended consequence of watching these videos is that it may have finally taught the Europeans that the threat is very close to home. 
They are calling for urgent meetings to discuss the problem. 
Let's hope these E.U. leaders come to their senses after watching the border breach. 
Last, but not least, I hope these videos are shown to voters listening to candidates who want to eliminate ICE.
