I prefer that they be afraid to try to come here in the first place. Seeking across our southern border should be as dangerous as sneaking across the 38th parallel.

I’ve stated “landmines” for the past 10 years here. No guards needed. Just a clean up crew.

I agree with seeing a judge within 48 hours. Isn’t that why Sessions deployed all those judges to the border ?

Hanging dead coyotes from the fence posts seems to help the coyote problem. Just a thought.

“landmines”

That.

And Tiger pits. Punji stakes. Razor wire. Lots of it. Machineguns. High voltage. Big, nasty dogs. Armed drones.

The Air Force does not have enough aircraft to sustain current operations let alone fly hundreds of thousands of illegals back over the border. We need to re-implement Operation Wetback, round up the illegals, and then put them on some old civilian ships to drop them off somewhere on the coast of Mexico.

Mexico is neck-deep in helping the dregs of their society, as well as Central American citizens, get across our border. make them deal with the mess they have deliberately created.

Landmines, random artillery brigade level Time on Target, tac air dropping napalm, and daily flights of Apache gunships.

No. Drop them somewhere OFF the coast of Mexico. They can swim, right? At least, wade through the surf. Right?

Put them on ships and use them for torpedo and Harpoon practice.

If the Tea Party really wants to fix this then show up en mass at the holding centers, surround the centers and make all kinds of noise in protest that they are not being deported.

Yep, a little gentle handling would go a long way towards determent.

Remove the bait (benefits), and the seagulls don’t show up.

The problems is because of lax enforcement in the past there is a great deal of precedent to skirt the law.

Another problem is liberal advocacy groups. They have done a great deal to 'muddy the waters' often citing precedent instead of laws.

With court challenges involved, I don't believe Trump could get it fixed in two terms. Add to that the fact many of our elected leaders don't want it fixed or want immigration enforcement to become even more lax and it's a long uphill battle.

Re-establishing immigration enforcement is going to be a long process and liberals are going to fight and challenge every law.

Not that we have the political will, but if we told Mexico that allowing invasion from their territory is an act of war, this stuff would stop tomorrow

To protect the returned air craft it might be necessary to have some Marines, lots of Marines present

There are strong precedents for US Marines in Central America. It is past time for Marines to invade and for national security put a stop to the outward migration at the source.

The petty Central American tyrants can easily be delt with.

I’ve got old Comanche foot traps all over my ranch from where they camped. Basically a foot-sized three-foot hole with spikes. Most have filled in, but occasionally a cow or an oil field worker will find one (generally when laying guy lines before they lay a pad).

Pretty much a guaranteed lost foot, assuming prompt medical care. Much worse if you don’t have a crew around you with a van and a radio (and a safety kit with a tourniquet).

I suppose one could never tell how long they’ve been there.

The Air Force would not do the flying.

There are plenty of charters available
