"I agree completely with securing our border. I wonder how hard it would be to build a great wall of Mexico to stop this stuff. Make them tunnel and use infrared to find them, if that is possible. "

I hear you, but I'm not sure a wall would work. It didn't back in Hadrian's time. The Great Wall of China does not appear to have been sparklingly effective. The Maginot Line, well, enough said there. Then we have the Iron Curtain and the Berlin Wall.

I guess all of these probalby worked to an extent and made things more difficult for crossing some line. I guess I'd rather not see the wall, but maybe there isn;t analternative. I guess I'd like to see a lot more human patrols of the region. And I don;t see why an organized volunteer effort cna't be part of it.
