Hoo, boy, that screams for abuse. I agree - require that they pass the bar, or have the immigrant represent him or her self.
I say exempt border fences from environamental impact law.
I agree. National security ought to trump, but sadly it legally doesn't.
DNA sample all those caught.
DNA tests take lots of time, weeks, unfortunately. A fingerprint database of those deported ought to suffice.
Deputize citizen patrols along the border. They want to help.

Put overstay final deportation orders on the NCIC.
A good idea, but...
REQUIRE local police to keep illegals in custody.
REQUIRE ALL DMV do a legal status check.
I don't think such a Federal mandate on local governments is legally possible. Wasn't there a lawsuit over the Brady Bill which resulted in part of it being overturned because of just such a mandate?
Basically manadate any government interaction require a imigration status check FOR all aplicants.
That would be you and me, too. "Papers, please!" For all the weeping and wailing and gnashing of teeth here at FR over national ID, I don't see how it's possible to reconcile opposition to ID with simultaneously requiring it. Heck, some people here don't want hospital ERs to treat patients without the patients providing proof of status. I bet they'd change their tune real quick the first time life-saving treatment is delayed due to a problem with their papers.
Maybe National ID or something like it is good, BUT only after you gain control over the border. We can't waste time deporting folks when they will just come back in the next dang day.
