since i live very close to the border, my answer would be a resounding yes. there are a thousand reasons for my opinion, one of which is that my wife is a "LEGAL" immigrant from another country, we have had to pay thousands of dollars and filled out thousands of forms and gone to hearings, and spent alot of time on doing it legally. yet, for the cost of a five hundred dollar fine, they are going to give that to just anybody? i don't think that kids that are born in the U.S. to illegal parents should be considered citizens either. I don't care how many thumbs down I get, you don't live here in northern mexico, er , i mean Arizona with me.

Yes and the sooner the better. Mexicans are not the only ones sneaking illegally into the United States through the borders.

Immigration is a global issue at the moment. Walls don`t work. It is easy to point out the failing of our nieghbour but, if the bank account in our own back yard is doing really well at the expense of our nieghbours overdraft, do we still take the investment and run?

A wall of bullets maybe..this stupid wall is nothing more than a token gesture to the masses....it will take years and more manpower to keep track of.
The only way deter the influx of illegals is to start raiding job sites and deportations...the cost may just as well be cheaper to do...oh and the anchor babies..stop giving welfare to them.
Other than these suggestions the talk of how to control illegals is a waste of everyones time.

Not permantly. As a quick fix until we get our monetary affairs in order (assuming it is a priority) it is acceptable. Walls never work forever. China tried it a long time ago. The communist Germans did it until that wall eventually fell. Walls not only keep people out, but governments get brash and who knows if they'll use it to keep us in!!

Since Mexicans refuse to respect our border, a wall is an unfortunate necessity.

they do no longer seem to be making a wall. it quite is referred to as a FENCE. And who cares if it quite is a wall or a fence, as long because it does what it quite is meant to do, and that's shop unlawful immigrant Mexican SCUM out of our u . s .. Why is it which you and others do no longer think of the united statesA. has a appealing to its sovereignty? the actual sadness and tragedy is that the corrupt Mexican government would not choose to do something to help its people have a first rate or sturdy widespread of living. it quite isn't any ask your self a statue of Vicente Fox develop into presently ripped from its beginning place in Mexico, purely like Saddam Hussein's develop into in Iraq. they could soften the steel it develop into synthetic from and pour it over his residences too. Do you spot individuals illegally crossing the border to Canada in droves? No you do no longer. Canada's widespread of living is comparable to ours or greater perfect. Canada's government is sane and not large corrupt and evil like Mexico's. And ultimately yet no longer least, Mexicans ought to check what start administration is and the thank you to apply it. i be attentive to this area is basically Catholic (staunch anti-contraceptive advocates), besides the undeniable fact that that's no longer a functional way of thinking thinking the dire scenario lots of them are at recent. while each and every person is prepared to return and forth many miles walking for the duration of the wilderness in sweltering warmth, risking possibilities of being raped, extreme possibilities of demise from heatstroke and exhaustion, deportation if found, you be attentive to their concern is previous desperate.

Yes, it is, but it must be used with other measures to get the illegals that are already here out.

We should ask the leaders of arabic countries how they protect their borders. and hire border patrol specialist from there to teach us how to protect our border. Because sadly here in USA our leaders dont have a clue of securing our borders.
