Oh REALLY? If it works so damned good, then why is ARIZONA complaining so damned much about their illegal alien problem?

The Texas border is 1200 miles. (The whole US border is not but 2900 miles.) It takes one day to build one mile of just four strand barbed wire fence. And that’s humping from dawn till dusk. It would take a minimum of four years to build a fancy DOUBLE fence with the technology to monitor it and a paved road down the middle of it, not to mention $BILLIONS of dollars. And then what’s to stop somebody from cutting through it, over it, or under it, in a 150 miles of wilderness between towns? Coyotes? Horned toads? A line of piss ants?

You OBVIOUSLY have never been to the Texas border or even looked at a freaking map. The Texas border is almost completely mountains, canyons, river bottom, and vast amounts of just NOTHING!

And the people crossing it today are not just your average happy migrant worker coming for a job. It’s gang criminals, narco and muslim terrorists. Are you naive enough to think they’re going to let a fence in the middle of the wilderness stop them?

Arizona’s border is 300 miles long. Why the hell can’t they get a grip on their border? Incompetence?

It does not matter how expensive it is or how long it will take... if our Border is not rock solid secure... nothing else matters. mexicans cost us annually far more than any Israeli styled fence we could buy. Do you also buy into the age old dimrat mantra as to why we can't drill our own oil... “If we started today... it would take 10 years to get enough oil flowing to make a difference”... they have been saying that for 20 plus years. Start now... git’er dun on both parts!
