I kilometer equals 1000 meters equals about 1100 yards or
5/8 of a mile.

"200 yards is plenty and can include a 25 yard mine field."

Yup, that would work. I was thinking of keeping the beaten zone in the good ol' USofA.

Nice, but this is just a can of Raid. IMO and in all seriousness, the gov't needs to use the Harriers to drop live ordnance once in a while (folks...it IS OUR HOMEland), and that'll deter the rock throwers and illegals.

With the Mexican Army firing on US soil, an armored car is wise. Hello, Washington! Anyone listening?

Re: post #9. You would have a little trouble with that idea of putting a wall one klick inside the border. Some ranchers have property abuting the border and I don't think they would be willing to give up that much land.

It would be better to put the wall 50 feet inside with a razor wire fence on the line and a road between, to be patrolled by armored vehicles. Even then the ranchers would have to be reimbursed.

The wall should be of concrete 30 feet high with watch towers every quarter mile.

Even though American citizens need an armored car to protect them at that border, those in charge in Washington are blind to the problem for fear of offending precious third world Mexico.

NO MORE VOTES FOR OPEN BORDERS/GLOBALIST POLITICIANS, NO MATTER WHICH PARTY THEY'RE CRAWLING IN.

I wouldn't be surprised if Mexican gangs plant a bomb to destroy the armored vehicle.

If they do, ( let's hope that they don't), it would be "interesting " to see what Washington's response would be.

Heck he'll probably just get the thing stuck in a ditch somewhere.
