The Solution to the Mexican Border Problem.

[ARCHIVED THREAD] - The Solution to the Mexican Border Problem.

Posted: 1/30/2006 1:20:54 PM EDT

So my younger brother and I were talking about illegal aliens and the Mexican border. As we talked he said something that I thought as a pretty good idea. "MINE THE BORDER". It is very simple and I would think it would be very effective. Put anti personnel and anti vehicular mines all along the border. Mark the whole line with bilingual and pictorial signs so everyone knows what stands between the two countries. This would be far less expensive than a fence (I think) and far more effective. If you wanted to be really cheep you would not need to do the whole border, just strategic locations but put the signs down the whole thing. So aside from a lot of libs freaking out what are the problems with this solution?

We should clone these things for the borders:

I don't know how many times I've said it so I'll say it again:

50ft tall chain link fence, 20ft underground......electrified with a couple hundred thousand volts.

Of course there'd be that awful burnt taco smell in the air

Get rid of welfare and they won't even want to come here.

Bad idea and will never, ever, ever happen.

Anyone think of making up a bunch of Chucuraba (SP?) suits and paying people to run up and down the border at twilight in them. I'll bet that and a few chunks of animal flesh strewn around major crossings would have an effect.

We won't get it under control until we go after the American citizens who are hiring them.

1st, it is Chupacabra which is as real as barney. It is also not just the mexican border. There is also a problem with Canada.

Ding, Ding, Ding, we have a winner here. If we stop providing services to them they will stop coming. That means no medical care unless they can pay for it, no schooling for their kids, no welfare, no anchor babies, no food stamps, nothing. We also need to put employers in prison for hiring them. The hell with fines. The company pays them.

The fence or wall is a bad idea. Those ingeneous fuckers will find a way over or under it.

I think getting rid of welfare etc is fine but that will never happen.

I thought my brother had a damn good idea, even though it will neer happen eather.

All the good solutions to the border problem are far too practical to be feasible.

Perp walks. Employers who knowingly hire illegals. Start with a few Waltons. Of course, there are already laws on the books, but they aren't enforced. So maybe the Chupacabras might not be such a bad idea.
