A better idea would be to use cameras, surveillance UAVs. And then post guys with humvees and helicopters every fifty miles or so. It would a lot cheaper.

Humvee unit cost: $50,000. Fuel efficiency: 14 MPG.

Black Hawk unit cost: $10,100,000. Fuel efficiency: 0.69 MPG. Cost per hour: $1285.82, not including crew.

It should be obvious to you that the Mexican border issue is a terrorist issue.

You must not have read that article:

http://www.news.com.au/common/story_page/0,4057,11085314%255E401,00.html

"Congressman Ortiz has said that intelligence shows al-Qaeda working with El Salvadorean criminal gangs as well as reports of Brazilians being recruited to accompany Arabs to illegally cross the US border. If they are apprehended, the groups say they are Brazilian - knowing there are few Portuguese-speaking border patrol agents - and are usually released into the US.

Sheriff D'Wayne Jernigan, of Del Rio, Texas, last month publicly blasted the dubious policy after being ordered by the Homeland Security Department to release 17 captured Brazilians before they had been interrogated.

Congressmen Ortiz, a Democrat, and Henry Bonilla, a Republican, also of Texas, wrote to Mr Bush and Homeland Security Secretary Tom Ridge last month seeking an urgent solution.

"We simply cannot continue allowing US citizens to be under the mistaken impression that OTMs from countries that should raise suspicion are being detained in the US when, in fact, they are free to roam the nation at will," the congressmen wrote."

What part of that don't you understand?

Americans who live in states on the Mexican border are drowning in the mess from illegal immigration. They are losing their clinics, they can't sell their homes and they are up to their necks in crime.

Have you priced homes in San Diego, California, right on the Mexican border?

And crime throughout Kolly-vornia is now well below the national average. We took to locking up the career criminals.

I will tell you the same thing that Poohbah pointed out somewhere earlier in the thread: That Al-Qaeda and its allies are not dumb; they will come into America legally if they can, and if you "seal" the Mexican border then they will come in through Canada if they have to. They will not see the Fortress America guard post, just give up, and go back to their cave.

So we could buy a thousand Blackhawks for ten billion. That's one every 22 miles of border. Assuming a life of 30 years that's 330 million a year. Multiply by ten for crew, maintenance and support, thats 3.3 billion a year.

Big deal.

Mission availability of the UH-60 is between 50-60% under optimal conditions. However, if there are any 250,000-watt radio stations in Mexico that are close to the border, that stretch of border is closed to the Blackhawks for safety reasons (the flight controls tend to go batty around commercial radio stations of much lower ERP).

Yes. Some of the terrorists will get in and do something terrible. After that happens, the good people in Wyandotte Michigan will be a little bit more alert as they stand near their kids playing on that merry-go-round.

A lot of people near the border will be watching. And if they see something suspicious, they just might take out their cell phone and call some guy who calls another guy with a Blackhawk helicopter.

So they use some old-fashioned Hueys in those areas. So what?

And I'll throw in another half a billion a year for the extra helicopters. Make it 3.8 billion a year.

Have you priced homes in San Diego, California, right on the Mexican border?

San Diego has high home prices because they don't allow many new homes to be built. Home ownership in California is about the fourth lowest in the country. I'm guessing that people don't want new housing projects built because they are scared to death of living next to a settlement of new semi-citizens. So people support tough environmental laws restricting development.

Elsewhere along the border, many freepers have talked about trashed homes near ranches and chronic crime in small border towns.

In Tuscon, Arizona, crime and murder are about double the national average.

Oh, that's right, you live near the border, and you say we are not being invaded by millions. Hehehe

Thanks for your cutting edge insight Geek.

Your pretty picture of the happy kids on the merry-go-round was taken in Wyandotte, Michigan directly across the river from Ontario, Canada. Don't you think that's a little bit misleading?

Remided me of a commercial some corrupt political hack would produce.

Beslan II? Coming soon, to a region near all of us.

Remember the 2 Muslim *beltway Snipers* in the fall of '02? Just imagine what 50 x 2 man teams would do to the US, in major cities, for months at a time, until caught and killed. We do have that many, incompetent *Chief Moosies* in positions of power, mayoral and LEO, and they will be part of out downfall.

Lock 'n load.

They have an emotional stake in their thinly-veiled racist beliefs

Beware of bald faced liars carrying race cards.

I don't use these words unless someone deserves it, and asked for it.

You're a deceiver, a bald faced liar. And now you're a race baiter.

I *never* *ever* forget people that make false, deceptive, lying statements. You clearly lied and deceived. All one needs to do is read back to see how you lied straight faced.

Here, you can keep your calling card, you bald faced liar.
