Talk, talk, talk. You can talk until you are blue in the face and you have legalize illegals(that's brilliant...reward people who break the law...hell, you overstay your visa by one day in Korea and they damn near want to hang you). Geez! Talk ain't gonna solve the border mess. You have to PHYSICALLY do something about it. Diplomacy and legislation ain't gonna do it. A big wall...a deterrent...but not enough.

Solution: Landmines. Mine the US/Mexican and US/Canada borders. I mean, there is a whole surplus of these things(millions) and you want to deterrent about breaking the law...yeah, how about your life? I'm not one of the pc bozos that thinks that all life is precious. No...survival of the fittest. It would be one helluva deterrent. I guess that if you survive the minefields, you should be granted automatic citizenship. It would be more cost effective and provide a strong deterrent against any potential violators. I would have a sign posted out that would say, "Do you really want to work THAT badly?"

Otherwise, just keep playing these little "legalize the illegal" games and continue to deal with millions of people that will continue to destablize the country and cause problems. It's time to get tough and stop talking about it....

Well, that's certainly a modest proposal.

Yeah, that'd be cool. I'd sign on for that. And snipers. Some snipers on hill tops in strategic locations to pick them off as the scamper through the underbrush. And pirahnas(sp) in the Rio Grand.

I'm game on landmines, certainly on the south and then on the north when the time comes. It has a less harmful to wildlife.

There are good friends and bad friends. Bad friends let friends do dumb things repeatedly. Good friends provide tough love even though its unpopular. The US needs to be a good friend to Mexico. Sending those people back and turning of birth right citizenship would be an act of a good friend.

Real ethical question for you. When is targeting children and women by the military allowed. What we have seen is a civil invasion by one country into another. Pure conquest without one shot fired. China does this with Tibet. These women and children are in fact human shields but they belong to the other side. I'm leaning now to towad killing women and children now that that ethical maxim has been abused. I don't feel like being a slave to it anymore.

No Gopher, I'm on to something. I'm still on the cutting edge. It was I that said The US was invaded by commies and invoked Joe McCarthy's name. Lo and behold, three days later Lou Dobbs said the same thing. I see the future, I really do.

Remove yourself from this current situation and put yourself in Poland in 1938 or Czechaslovokia in 1967-68. What if Hitler or the Soviets sent in a bunch of moms and kids to numerically conquer an area? The Soviets actually did do this, they sent ethnic Russians to the far corners of the empire to bolster loyalty to Moscow. What are the ethics of repelling a civil invasion?
