Don't believe the pro-ILLEGAL alien spin that border fences do not work. They do.

"Here in San Diego, we have proven that the border infrastructure system does indeed work," Henry says. "It is highly effective."

I like the idea of landmines, though.

I don't know who Henry is, but he needs to consult the OED on the definition of "effective."

April 4,2014:

"U.S. federal agents have uncovered two drug-smuggling tunnels underneath the U.S.-Mexico border, both surfacing in San Diego-area warehouses and equipped with rail systems for moving contraband, officials said on Friday.

...

Federal law enforcement officials said the first tunnel, which connects a warehouse in Tijuana, Mexico, with one in an industrial park in the border community of Otay Mesa, is about 600 yards long and is furnished with lighting, a crude rail system and wooden trusses.

...

The second tunnel was even more sophisticated, built with a multi-tiered electric rail system and an array of ventilation equipment.

...

The two tunnels are the sixth and seventh cross-border passageways discovered in the San Diego area in less than four years, according to the task force.

Since 2006, federal authorities have detected at least 80 cross-border smuggling tunnels, most of them in California and Arizona,"
