The long and the short of S. 2192 is that Trump get legal authority to 
build a wall, and put cameras and stuff all along the border, 
irrespective of any laws saying he cannot.

I cannot see how this impairs my rights, or anyone's rights, other than 
the right of invaders who hope to invade, kill me and take my stuff.

I come in and go out by airport, where I already get survielled, so this 
does not affect me in the slightest.  In only affects people who are 
swimming the Rio Grande and suchlike.
