You can't build a fence on the whole border because of property owners. At least half the land on the border is privately owned.

One of he few uses of emminent domain that I would support. We need 2 30ft walls separated by 50ft of "no mans land" across the entire border.

It is Mexico and Mexicans that are causing the problem. I would favor confiscating whatever land was needed starting at our border and moving South.

Another poster indicated that there was a 300 foot buffer of Federally owned land along the entire length of the border. Can anybody confirm that? Is it actual surface ownership or just a right of way or some other type of easement that allows the Border Patrol access for enforcement purposes?
