You speak of land grab and many of you don’t understand the border. Building a fence/wall Israeli style is not that simple. First off it can be done from the Pacific to El Paso, from there the border is the Rio Grande River. I live in East Texas but can tell you when it’s spoken about here the ranchers on the border do not want to give up land cutting off the Rio Grande and it’s water from their cows.

As a matter of fact, I wouldn’t be surprised if every time you see the Border Patrol on TV in Texas, close to 100% of the time they are on private land making an arrest. Texas has very very little federal land. Therefore an Israeli fence will have to take private lands.
Let’s talk about that too if you wish to discuss a fence.

After watching the Bundy antics how do think it won’t erupt 100 times worse when the federalies try to take all that private land.

Sure, I’m 100% for cruz and I’m 100% for a fence but I tell you it is way way more complex than most people know.

Uh, okay. I was actually speaking of eminent domain, but I didn’t realize I needed to specify that. I guess I thought it would be self-explanatory. I’ll work on being more specific.
