Smuggling Tunnel Found In San Diego

This just in, authorities in California say they have found a tunnel that has carried dozens of people across the border of Mexico into the United States, through San Diego. Authorities found the tunnel Saturday at 1 am. It appeared to look only like a simple hole, but the hole had a ladder inside of it. When the agents approached men and women on that street started to run. 23 Chinese and 7 Mexican people were detained since they are believed to have entered the United States illegally.

Their have been thirty undocumented immigrants suspected to come into the country illegally. Some of those who were caught running tried to go back down the tunnel. Which made authorities figure out the tunnels purpose, to smuggle in illegal immigrants. Several were detained inside the tunnel, some outside. Will their be more to come?

Questions:
Do you think this tunnel should be blocked off ?
Do you think those who entered should be brought back to their own country?
