This is a reasonable policy.

Of course, it will have to be a little bit higher tech - smugglers would have no problem cutting down portions of such a fence.

The best answer is a fence of this description with some kind of electronic warning system enabling border enforcement officers to rapidly respond to a breach.

D.W. - would you mind posting that pic of a wire border fence in use now and very effective (even against terrorists) please sir?

Yeah.

I say a fence or wall, w/ security cameras and motion sensors at regular intervals.

With all the money we blow on stupid stuff in this country, no one can tell me we can't afford that.

. . . smugglers would have no problem cutting down portions of such a fence.

Tunneling might be a problem, too. Strict surveillance using the best technologies, prosecution of offenders. A fence. It all needs to be there, and not just at the border with Mexico.
