The put the military on the border arguement ain't gonna fly. Poobhah is right about that, we don't have the man power and we really don't want an armed border with Mexico.

We don't need one million men on the border. We have technology to compensate. The aggessive use of just 200 drone planes would provide sufficient 24 hour/day recon of the entire Mexican border.

Check the American Border Patrol web site and see what they are able to accomplish in conjunction with the Border Patrol using just a few of these unmanned planes.

OK.

How do you ARREST those people? The planes can't do that.
