Behind the fence will be a 60- to 70-foot wide unpaved but graded dirt road, along with inexpensive, mounted video cameras that can be monitored from home computers. On the other side of the road will be a second, 15-foot fence, with more concertina wire on its outside.
"It's a very simple, effective design based on feedback we've had from Border Patrol and the military," Simcox said. "It's a fence that can be built on the cheap, effective and secure."
Why don't they just build the Berlin Wall while they're at it?
The so called "Minute Men" have become an embarrassment to America and a disgrace to the name they have stolen.
I don't agree.
Hey they can have a "private" draft and have their own militia "supervising" the building ala the building the of the Berlin wall.

Your comparison of a border wall to the Berlin Wall is ill conceived. The Communists built the wall to keep its enslaved subjects from escaping to freedom. This wall, if built, will protect free men from losing their freedom to hordes of Third Worlders. You might as well analogize the slave ships that brought Africans against their will to this country to the vessels that brought people seeking freedom and opportunity to our shores.
Perhaps you'd feel a little differently if it was your property being trampled on, your house broken in to, equipment stolen, piles of dirty diapers and discarded plastic containers and clothes, etc. What would be your solution......standing at the border handing out maps and travel $?
Threatening your good deal with the illegals, eh?
Hey, they are just doing the job that a certain 535+1 Americans won't. That should justify whatever they choose to do, right?

Foolish words. You might want to break open a history book or 2.
The BERLIN WALL was to keep their people IN...not out. HUGE difference.
The Minute Men are the example of the Constitution of these United States of America.

Not for most Americans.........time for you to head back to the DU barn.
God Bless these Patriots.
Obviously you are not living in a border state....unless you are simple and just plain dirt stupid.... If you are, I sincerely wish you a speedy recovery....
I don't get it.
Why are they a disgrace?
Since when is it a disgrace to protect your country from invasion??
Gimme a break. You know why they would do this, outside of the publicity? Because the ranch families need help. They have tens and hundreds of unscrupulous, sometimes desperate men crossing their ranches every night. Often they commit property crimes. Sometimes they commit violent crimes. The people can't get any help. So this will help them be safe, and coincidentally it will make it much more difficult for the criminales to get into the country.
A fence is the way to go. Once they're in you have to deal with them, and the money pump never stops. Keep them out and they remain Vince's problema.

Don't know where YOU live, but for those of who have had this illegal intruder problem shoved into our faces for over 30 years- STFU. I would contribute to a wall in a heartbeat, and I am living on less than $1000.month Soc Sec.
Wow did not take long for someone to bring out that red herring... The Berlin wall was about keeping a population trapped within borders. A fence on the US border is about keeping people who come here illegally out!

I find the fact we are contemplating for the second time in two decades excusing millions of law breakers slightly more embarrassing..
Me thinks thou dost protest too much. Is money or family involved in your opinion?
Wouldn't want you beside me when the chips are down. Our nation is not only flooded with illegals and their sympathizers but also enablers, like you.
You must be a real piece of work, someone that everyone pushes around and tramples over. No sign of backbone, pride in country or own identity..........unless of course you're one of the illegals that the rest of us are trying to keep out, which would explain your attitude.
If you are soo patriotic and in love with the ideals of our founding fathers why do you feel you need to impress those in other countries above all. I think you are the embarrassment!
