Apparently you don't know the terrain. No way.

rubber bullets and stun guns

What's wrong with copper bullets and body bags?

The government says that it is almost impossible to shut that border down; that is popycock! Anyone who's even served a short time in the military, knows that our government is lying to us. I'd build two fences 100 yards apart from each other, build a moat in between, and patrol it with military armed with rubber bullets and stun guns. The whole operation could be up and running in under 4 months, and it would be cheaper than what we're doing now (because we'd need less people)

As KirklandJunction said, Apparently you don't know the terrain.

Your plan would be impossible from just past San Diego to the Arizona border, the 10th Mountain Division would have a hard time operating in this area.

While this might work in some areas, it won't work in all.

Also, I think Land Mines would be a better deterrent.

Have you done any research at all on the success of the illegal Mexicans in California in returning California to Mexico. Anyone who currently gets a retirement check from California should be interested in this. What are the odds that Mexico is going to continue retirement checks for Californians?

Sounds interesting. I read a piece in Forbes concerning enemy in the air during WWII. How they put up balloons which kept them from getting in. It was also a lot cheaper. It's too bad our government doesn't want to do the right thing. With all the brain power we have in this world and no one will do the right thing. What a shame.

You seem to have left out the northern border, right now there are eight (8) U.S. Border patrol agents in the state of Michigan. Take a look at this state on a map. That's like the proverbial screen door on a submarine.
