I wonder how much this system of sensors costs? Who monitors the sensors......A.D.T?

Howzabout scrapping the gizmos and building an Israeli style wall instead?

Your basic hit piece against the MMP.

Omniscient ping.

Exactamundo, mi amigo.

If a wall is wrong, why are sensors right?

Answer? Because a wall would work.

It sounds to me like authorities may be trying to say that not as many illegals are coming across as the MMPs report OR MMPs are trying to make it look like more illegals are getting across than actually are.

"Howzabout scrapping the gizmos and building an Israeli style wall instead?" Yeah, let's build a 10' wall on thousands of miles of border. The second a wall goes up, they tunnel under, or climb over, and we're back to where we started. The Israelis can police a wall, because it won't be very long. Simpler, and probably more cost effective, to put state national guard on the job, or maybe even regular army. The BP is horribly understaffed; also, it's gotta be pretty disheartening to arrest an illegal alien only to see them again in a few days or a week. Give the guys a break, and let's get them some trained, proficient help. I used to live 5 miles off of the border in Double Adobe, AZ, Very close to where these folks are playing cops and robbers. I know what goes on. I've seen stuff that just ain't right. Some of it downright scary. I've reported plenty of illegals to the BP, though calling the sherrif would usually garner a better response time, as the Sherrif was usually in a town 10 miles away, not 20 miles away off-road chasing a group of illegals. Most of those patrolmen/women work damned hard at their job, and until you've walked 10 miles in their shoes through scorpion,12" centipede, 4' rattlesnake etc infested desert, give 'em a friggin break. You wanna get mad at somebody, get made at the politicos that let the border get this bad. The civilian's intentions are great, but an end does not justify the means. It would not surprise me in the slightest if shots are fired at them by coyotes and good men die because they were somewhere they weren't supposed to be. Are they vigilantes? Yes. They're ordinary citizens taking the law into their own hands. It's not even their property. With most of them, it isn't even their own state. I understand the why. But I have to say it ain't right what they're doing. Unlike the government, though, I'd propose that we do something to fix it. Military would help. *Holocaust cloak on* "It fit so nice, he said I could keep it"
