100,000 Protestors... Angry mobs of students...

I have to laugh at the thought of building a 2,000 mile long wall, in this day and age. Ya know, without slaves and general anachronism.

I'm all for border control, too. And for the sun rising in the damn West for a change.

It's a 2,000 mile-long border to an economically devasted portion of the hemisphere. Harder though it might seem than erecting a King Kong Wall, changes MUST be made to keep those people solvent in their home countries. Nothing else is going to work. You can't stop immigration with force.

Even if you were willing to kill everyone coming across the border, you'd need 846,000 men with rifles to man the Kong Wall 24/7. Pulease.
