    A fence built to prevent sneaky entry of foreigners is supposed to be high enough to prevent most break-in attempts. That's the whole point.
    But then again, it goes without saying, Now, about that paper from which the whinning originates, a little peak inside the basement might be interesting...

    I understand. Thanks for sharing. Sorry to hear that.

    It reminds me of something in Fransisco's money speech....when you have to as permission to produce from men who produce nothing...when they pass laws to protect them from you... I'm guessing on the exact words there.

    I have a very long list of things that happened to me and everyone i know by the actions of illegal aliens. Some things minor and some things major.

    I owned an IT consulting company that went under. I'm not saying going under was directly related to illegal aliens. I did lose more than a few bids for work because labor costs were far below what I was able to quote.

    Why do you feel this way? Is it out of an obligation to your country? Fear of prosecution? Taxes and benefits are just tools of the government to control you. I'm not advocating breaking the law. I'm just curious of your thoughts on this.

    Simple they can't afford it. The fence building only occurs near places that can be easily seen. Even so to do the fence near Nogales I heard was one million a mile. After looking I believed it. But it only goes for a few miles.We'd be money ahead having people sign up for Bracero or the skilled the Green Card Program and buying their Mexican passports for them. The reason they go the coyote route is it's affordable and passports aren't. Never mind bribes it's th base price. Then go after the employers who use illegal labor to artificially manipulate and depress wages in the US.And the unions tat allow it to happen without a peep.

    After finally buying that pocket pistol I've been mentioning for 3 months today, I heard that fence being too high nonsense laughed at on talk radio while I half-snoozed as my son drive me back to the other side of Birmingham. Then the conversion took a more serious turn about an illegal who murdered a woman in San Fran PC Sicko. I heard the words, "Trump was right."

    Government looters set the quotas and criteria. The American public would have a completely different set of quotas and criteria than the looters.

    It's no different then if you fill your mailbox with concrete and some kid breaks his arm playing mailbox baseball.
    The problem is our definition of "victim" is all wrong. :-)

    I had it explained to me as the GF and I were discussing a closer legal relationship. By a State Department employee. First you get hitched in Mexico. Then you do adoptions in Mexico and/or have children which doesn't apply here. Then you get them Mexican Passports one each and present that with your own to the consulate. Once you get on the list ....there is US adoption proceedings and another laundry list and $$$$$.

    I asked the GF what for? I can't afford to live in the USA anymore and you couldn't afford to pay the huge tax increase. To what advantage? What gain?

    So now we are concentrating on education through University level for the skilled requirement and getting passports and sponsorship for the two eldest. The passports are a reward for graduating. One's computer engineer and the other is in Chef's school which down here leads to a Bachelor equivalent called Licenciado.

    With a passport and a visa they can go back and forth and see things first hand.

    Are you kidding? Do you know what that would lead to? Reparations, apologies, and amnesties. USA is broke enough as it is. I wouldn't mind if the target was corporations like Tyson's though.If people wouldn't hire illegals there would be no illegals.How many of them have been sent ot chop lettuce on the prison farms.

    Don't drag us presenting and former active duty military types in on that. Sounds like a job for the State Militia. Posse Comitatus works two ways.

    Walking across an international border in the number we are seeing is shooting in defense. To not, leads to everything I've witnessed and seen here in Phoenix.

    That was in the bankers interest. Ruben the SecTreas fixed up a bail out using Social Security excess funds and RR retirment trust funds. Full well knowing Goldman Sachs was on the hook fo 40%. of the total. Sec Treas Ruben at that time was on loan to the Government from none other than Goldman Sachs. No Blind Trust, no appearance of impropriety, no recuse, no investigation, so Rubens beomes a multi gazillionaire by engineering the perfect crime. Meaning he got away with it.

    She's a $%^ing criminal. If the military was properly employed to defend America she would have been shot or deported instantly. Raise it high enough so they break a neck instead of a nail.

    I'm not really into shooting people unless to defend; however, something has to be done to stop the first crossing. I'm afraid it will take violence to stop the influx. The major problem would be could one look down the barrel at a child. Unless that child was armed and look to shoot I could not shoot so how to solve the real problem.

    We have a term for that -- "tough titty".
    After living in Tucson for 24 years, I am happy to be outta there and away from the both the border and from that horde of big-brother-types.
