You idiots make no sense. It was mainly a conservative idea to begin with to build the border fence. Bush went against his own party in the pursuit of comprehensive immigration reform. The Democrats didn’t want a fence. Now, you complain that the fence costs too much and doesn’t work, and it’s all an Obama conspiracy.

It’s that loyalty we should be very concerned about.

Terminator: The “we” I speak of are the American people. Illegal aliens are NOT immigrants. Immigrants respect our laws, assimilate into our culture and desire to become an American. Illegal aliens break our laws, remain loyal to their country of origin and drain our resources meant for citizens like parasites. There is no such thing as a law abiding illegal alien. American patriots will NEVER accept another amnesty. Mexico is a much bigger threat to the US than Iraq or Afghanistan ever was. There are traitors in our government that don’t give a damn about this country or its people. Vote out all incumbents and take back our country. Mexico must stop encouraging their people to break our immigration laws or face armed conflict with the US. If we are going to have their people here, we may as well invade Mexico and have the land and resources as well. Adios Mexico!

Of course the wall got screwed up, our government built it. They can’t do anything right. And you want them to do healthcare too?? Put Sheriff Joe Arpaio has head of ICE and majority of the illegals would be gone in 5 years. Immigration reform will never pass because 80% of Americans don’t support it. Enforce the laws and deport those who broke the law. Simple. Thats probalby why the gov’t won’t do it !

Meantime, with 15 million Americans without jobs, the invasion continues, no Liberal Politician will address the 500 pound gorilla in the room, and millions of invading, plundering, welfare loving, prolific breeding, Illegal Aliens taking millions of jobs that should be American jobs and 100,s billions of dollars in social services that should be for American citizens!

One cannot be political correct and admit that Illegal Aliens are an large part of the problems in this Nation.

Their negative impact extends to every area from Sub-par loans & defaults, Underground economy, Massive document fraud, Lower standard of living, Crime, Overflowing prisons , Bankrupted hospitals, Failing schools, Property Taxes, Insurance costs, Environment, Culture, Welfare costs, Welfare fraud, SS fraud, Voter fraud, Disrespect for our laws & country, our Constitution against invasion and even Balance of payments occurring from oil and other imports to support the 20 to 30 million illegal aliens in this country!

One has to only look at Calif. which is basically mostly an Spanish speaking, Bankrupt state that cannot afford to provide Welfare, Schooling, Medical, Prison cells etc. for millions of MS-13 Gang bangers, Drug dealers, Rapist and other assorted Criminals and uneducated, Prolific breeding, third world rejects from Mexico!

In a very few years it will be impossible to see where Mexico ends and Calif. begins as both will be an third world cesspool!

Failure to secure our borders and reward the Invading horde for their invasion and their relatives in an never ending chain with American Citizenship is nothing less than committing National Suicide & will assure our future is an over populated Spanish speaking third world Nation that is an Cesspool of Corruption, Crime, Poverty and Misery modeled on Mexico!

Our government fails the most basic and primary task & duty of government, to protect this Nation and its Citizens from invasion and enforce its laws.
Our Government, past & present, Republican & Democrat, have allowed the invasion of 20 to 30 million criminals and uneducated peons which is the largest invasion of any Nation, at any time, by any means & in direct violation of Article IV Section IV of our Constitution.
This refusal to abide by our Constitution or enforce our Immigration Laws should be classified as Treason of the most foul kind, & as grounds for impeachment & trials for Treason!
Not only have they allowed the invasion, they force American tax payers to pay Billions on Billions of dollars to provide Welfare, Prison cells, Educate the invaders numerous children, and free medical care, at the same time the invading horde break numerous laws and massive document fraud, & are destroying our schools, hospitals, communities, culture and standard of living while Robbing, Raping, Killing & Assaulting American Citizens at an rate the terrorist can only dream about.
Recent statements in Mexico from both President Obama and Secretary of State Hillary something needs to be done. “Our inability to prevent weapons from being illegally smuggled across the border to arm these criminals causes the deaths of police officers, soldiers, and civilians,” Hillary whined.
But no mention, whines, concern or care that their refusal to stop the Massive Invasion of Illegal Aliens pouring across our borders or enforce our immigration laws that causes an estimated 25 Americans deaths per day and 10,s of thousands victims of Assault, Robberies, Rapes, Identify thief, and other assorted crimes committed by the invading horde of Illegal Aliens from Mexico on American citizens each year!
It is a telling indictment & shows their Empathy & Compassion of our Politicians & their priorities are not for the American citizens when they express more concern over Mexicans deaths mostly connected to the Drug trade, than the murders, havoc & crimes of Illegal Aliens against American Citizens!
The Democrats view the invading horde of Criminals and Uneducated third world rejects as Undocumented Welfare Democrats & the Republicans as Undocumented Slave labor for their Pay Masters in the Chamber of Commerce & Businesses!
Most of our Politicians in Wash. DC are wading knee deep in innocent American blood and suffering because they put Self Interest ahead of the interest of American Citizens & the future of this Nation!
The Citizens of this Nation have not sacrificed with blood, sweat & tears for over 200 years & obeyed the Laws of the land, paid the taxes, and fought the wars & built this Nation to see Corrupt politicians turn this Nation into the United States of Mexico without a shot being fired, to serve their demented, nefarious goals and lust for power!

Hurry up and finish the fence. With the economic downturn, the flow of illegal immigrants has reversed. They are all going back to Mexico. We need to fence in all the cheap labor before it escapes.

“It doesn’t bother me, because we are going to do the same thing,” said Arpaio, whose deputies had arrested 16 people by Friday evening on unspecified charges. “I am the elected sheriff. I don’t take orders from the federal government.”

That last sentence is the key to all.

- Buzz G has no point. Devon does.

I grew up near the US border with Mexico. The vast
majority of illegal immigrants are refugees from Central
America who are smuggled in, not terrorists. The violence
throughout Mexico in recent years has resulted in an
increase, but the majority of the weapons seized at the
US checkpoints that are used to commit the violence
come from HERE.

Mostly I agree with Jim Henderson. The cameras that Mr.
Barr says can be disabled by sandstorms are older infrared
types. Those can be replaced by Nano-SAR technology.
Basically it’s a form of radar with enough beam elements
to produce a TV- type image that can peer through cloud
layers and other opaque phenomena in the atmosphere.
UAVs and satellite imagery can assist in the coverage,
since those systems are already in use.
