Should the US mine the mexican border?

uhateme I'm O.K. with that

We need a fence, with a wall, and concertina wire, and mines, and armed troops with orders to shoot to kill!

Secure our borders by whatever means necessary, but SECURE IT and SECURE IT NOW!

CHARITY G

Um . . . no.

mudgei

Goodness no. The Communists weren't so cruel when they set up the Berlin Wall. Of course they would have shot you for trying to climb over. Really! Do we want our country to be viewed as the current equivalent of the Communists of the 20th century? Gross! Unless you like to kill people . . . then you are twisted and need help.

YES, AND PUT UP RAZOR WIRE AND HAVE M-60'S LOADED (WITH MOTION DETECTORS ON THEM)

jack of all trades

Only if we mine the Canadian border too.

GG Gal

Yes. But I'm reluctant to say that and lose another 11 POINTS from the P.C. Yahoo Gestapo.

ebby

Why not, people are not susposed to cross anyway.....right?

badmotherrucker

sure, let's give them numbers before they leave so we can bet on who makes it or not.

tony a

Yes we should and put up warning signs to be fair

Mz. America

I love that idea!! yes yes

Dr Doom

It has its Merits, but the legal implications, would only produce a gaggle of instant Mexican Millionaires.

Why not both. The criminals would figure out how to mine sweep and soon have a route though the minefield. A fence would soon have holes in it. So, they would have to be continuously patrolled by border guards.
We need to drastically beef up the border guard. It's too late to try to fix this on the cheap.

Yep!!! Matter of fact....let ME do it!!!

mines are far more expensive than fences

plus, its immoral and we would have to continue re-planting them

Absolutely not. We are not murderers and thugs. We don't want to stoop to their level of thinking. I wouldn't be opposed to guard towers and dog runs though. Because if they approach these areas, they can be given a warning to return or face being shot or having the dogs after them.

It would be alot easier, more humane, and more effective to simply put those who employee illegal aliens in prison. If our government would do that illegal immigration would virtually disappear.

I am completely opposed to illegal immigration yet I do not blame the illegal aliens for coming here. If I were them I would come here too. Our government must do its job, it is at fault. If it will not then we have no hope as a nation.

While it is not singularly his fault, and while I voted for him (and will continue to vote Republican generally), Bush has gone a long long way to making this a much bigger problem than it was previous to him. Bush has done a very very poor job concerning our domestic policy, and even as to national security.

Johnny Guano

Yes! And we should use bounding mines. The anti-personnel ones that jump out of the ground and explode at a height of three feet, spraying steel ball bearings in a 100 yard radius

S B

Absolutely not! The cost of one innocent human life is never worth it!

This is really an interesting question. Especially from a member that claims to do extensive research in difficult to find tomes.
First of all the drugs are intended for buyers who make profits by selling them. Who are the big money guys that can purchase kilos of cocaine? Last I heard the terrorists all had visas and were mostly from Saudi Arabia. Canada seems to have had one or two people using their border to cross into the USA. I agree that borders are international and should be respected. The amount of trade that crosses the border in both direction is so great it would affect the economies of both countries drastically so that your idea would be a no brainer.This is an economic dance performed by both countries for the benefit of those peoiple who have large investments in international corporations.

Certainly
And to all of you who say do the same to the Canadian border...
Canadians don't come here and become criminals...they become functioning parts of our society.

angflyboy86

YES, but with all the feel-good liberals in this country that care more about illegals rights, then protecting their Country, it will never happen.

PARVFAN

You're kidding right? This is America. Besides, it would cost to much to have funerals for them all. Peace
