    I am so tired of the idiot liberals interfering in adult business, perhaps we should encourage the illegals to cross a uncontrolled border and identify the homes without firearms (Democrats) for them. When they finish we can clear them out and send them back home.

    I'm thinking Mr. Trump should offer to bus a couple hundred of the border homeless / illegals / criminals / won't work - to Nancy's estate.

    Give them tents, tell them the "digs" are a lot better on the other side of Nancy's wall.

    It is a sanctuary city .

    Because it is a 13th century answer to a 21 century problem? Even the Republican Part in NM is telling trump it is an idiotic solution. We have technology these days.

    Is the "technology" less expensive than walls and the maintenance of them?

    If so, would it not be an economically sound move to replace the prison walls with this "technology"?

    do NOT forget the STUPIDITY of the concept of allowing foreigners and illegal entrees the same RIGHTS as citizens claiming some moral superiority to ctizens, taxpauers and veterans ...STOP EM AT THE BORDER AND TURN THEM AROUND ....ADIOS....

    When faced with a problem you do not have an answer to solve what you know how then take another look at it.

    Is a wall the cure all? No. But it is a move forward. Building a wall will allows us to focus resources on other measures.

    Again, I"ll post this:

    YOU DON'T BUILD A WALL TO KEEP PEOPLE IN FRONT OF YOU OUT;
    YOU BUILD A WALL TO PROTECT THE PEOPLE BEHIND YOU THAT YOU LOVE.

    Please tell us exactly what kind of technology will stop illegals from entering the U.S.

    Once in they get kind of a "kings x" and get to stay, if they're lucky they avoid getting caught and just "move in" and stay.

    The U.S. can't agree in a National ID card,, agree on technology they will actually stop invaders, that's a joke. The Dims don't want to stop illegals from entering.

    We'll be just like the U.K. in 5 more years.

    I can't tell if you're joking about this because of the lack of green font or smileys...

    But if you're serious, you must be one of those that believe that the police will stop a crime from happening after they arrive at the crime scene a half hour after the crime has happened and the only one(s) left there are the victim(s)...

    That's not fair Rem. With all the technology that we've personnaly seen over the past ten or so years going off the chart, we do have the means to foresee approaching problems from a distance through drone technology, thermal detection (FLIR and better now), providing enough time to fortify an area with appropriate personnel. I believe this whole thing has intentionally been blown out of proportion as to how to deal with it. I've read postings here stating that convoys of illegals made it into the US, yet that wasn't true and isn't true, it was propagated fake news. Fake news from both political parties is not helping matters now and simply dividing America. [V]


    You're reading into my statement things that I didn't say...

    I didn't say police aren't necessary, but what I was saying that an armed citizen is more apt to stop a crime that is at a crime scene while the crime is being committed, than the police are after they arrive at a crime scene after the crime has been committed.

    I've never once said that modern technology should not be used... but I am saying that the wall will slow down the crossing of illegal aliens so that with the help of modern technology, the border patrol can get there and apprehend them before they vanish into the night...

    We do need police officers to stop crimes that they're lucky enough to be there to witness (which is seldom), and to investigate crimes that have already been committed.

    Just as we do need modern technology to help monitor the border, and we also have to have the wall to make the area that needs to be monitored smaller, and also slow down the progress of illegal aliens crossing the border.

    And you're naive if you believe that not one illegal alien from the convoys were able to make it into the United States.

    But I do agree that both sides of the party are spreading fake news. Just like you're spreading fake news that not one illegal alien from the convoy was able to cross the border


    Why is it that I have to explain everything explicitly to you, like I do have to for my 3 year old grandkid? You would think someday you would be able to figure things out by yourself... Unless of course you only have it to mantality a three year old. It is really is sad that a grown man acts like you do.

    But I don't think that's the case, I think you're smarter than a three year old, I just think you're nothing but a troll

    Wow! I didn't say police. I'm not naive, didn't say nobody made it over the border, and not going to participate in any form of rational debate here because you clearly can't be rational. You're knee jerk reacting, insulting without any cause and sound like you're off your meds. Enjoy the thread. At this stage, I honestly no longer care. Flame on, I won't reply. [B)]

    Who is going to pick all the grapes at Nancy's vineyards in Saint Helena California if we put up a wall ? Who is going to mow her lawns and clean her estate if we put up a wall ? The Napa Valley is full of snowflakes, but they won't do any of that. They are to busy smoking pot, drinking wine and packing fudge to work.

    Whoa is me. We are doomed.

    Jose.

    Ok, so you have hundreds/thousands of people watching/manning these high tec electronic devices detecting invaders of the USA .. and then you still have to have a force on the ground w/equipment to make physical contact and place them in custody.

    Somehow, seems like a wall to keep them the hell out in the first place will be less expensive and far more effective & financially less expensive.

    Walls work:
    Speaking on the second anniversary of the government?s move to seal Hungary?s border with Serbia ? which is also an external border for the European Union ? Prime Minister Viktor Orb?n?s Chief Security Advisor Gy?rgy Bakondi announced that the fences have caused illegal immigration to collapse from 391,000 in 2015, to 18,236 in 2016, to just 1,184 in 2017.

    ?The system of technical barriers is the key to the success of border security, and without it, it would be impossible to stop the mass arrival of immigrants? the security chief explained.

    It was lower in 2018.

    We're looking like IDIOTS in the U.S. about something that should have been done 20/30 years ago.

    First, how many here have ever seen a significant portion of the US/Mexican border. If you had you would begin to understand the near impossibility of building a wall along it all at any price. Second there is technology that can spot illegals 15 miles from the border and they can be interdicted at crossing. That is happening now. Most of the people have been told by coyotes that if they get to the border and turn themselves in, they will be cared for and given jobs. Almost none actually know that is not a true depiction of what happens. Under US law, any alien can apply for asylum in the US and be given a hearing. Which is not to say they will be well cared for, given jobs or put on welfare. Many are rejected.

    Do you really believe what you write? So, we got drones that see illegals coming towards the border. They are 25 miles from any road, out in the middle of Gawd-awful nowhere. Are you going to scramble a butt load of ICE agents on helicopters that cost $2,000 an hour to fly to get them? Once they are captured how the hell do you get them out to processing?

    A wall will stop MOST from coming across, it will also create a funnel effect just like mine fields and artillery barrages do in a war.

    We know the enemy is not going to stop coming so the best choice is to get them to go where you want them to go and pick them up from there.

    Then I wonder how the great Wall of China got built. And they didn't even have the technologies that we have today to build it...

    In comparison to the building of the great Wall of China, the wall separating Mexico and the United States will be a walk in the park to build

    And as far as surveillance technology goes, I think it would of great benefit to use it in conjunction with the wall separating Mexico and the United States. Both technologies working in conjunction with each other... Even the great Wall of China had guard stations strategically placed along the wall to monitor the whole wall....

    And trust me the wall will make it so much cheaper to use modern technology that the wall will pay for itself In no time, and in the long run will save billions, possibly trillions of dollars over using modern technology alone. And conversely, modern technology will make the wall a lot more effective.

    The American people have already spoken. They want a wall and Hillary in jail, I'm anxiously awaiting both.
