I watched Christie answer the illegal crossings just now on FNS. His answers are the same we hear over and over: fence where possible, use of more technology and the employer mandates, etc.

The one thing I have not heard from any of the candidates is to change the Rules of Engagement. With any methods of securing the border we need to un-cuff the border agents. If some illegals get killed, I’m sorry but they should have not tried to get here illegally. I’m not suggesting we target them but not handcuffing the border agents that keeps them from being able to do their jobs effectively.

Christie is a fraud. Fences or barriers are ways to save manpower and facilitate enforcement, The 13 miles of double fencing south of San Diego worked. The fences have not been scaled or tunneled under. The Israelis and Indians have used fencing to good effect.

I agree that we must allow the BP to do its job. Right now the illegals are surrendering to the BP who then bring them to centers so they can be released inside the US. They are aiding the lawbreakers, which they hate.
