Hilarious. (Doubtless the admin. will dig up a dusty law that says you can't build a fence on an international border without govt. approval.)

They should create a "wall fund" I'd donate right away.

Let's see if Arizona Governor Janet Napolitano is sent packing in November and then we'll see just how much of a fence there will be built.

Great idea!!!!
Perhaps we should inform our gutless, ballless, clueless congress-critters( mine are Kind, Kohl, and Findsgold.......can't describe them any better) that this year our donations go to the fence fund rather than their campain funds

Start with a 6-foot deep trench so a vehicle can't crash through; behind it, roll of concertina (coiled, razor-edged barbed wire), in front of a 15-foot high heavy-gauge steel mesh fence angled outward at the top.

Behind the fence will be a 60- to 70-foot wide unpaved but graded dirt road, along with inexpensive, mounted video cameras that can be monitored from home computers. On the other side of the road will be a second, 15-foot fence, with more concertina wire on its outside.

"It's a very simple, effective design based on feedback we've had from Border Patrol and the military," Simcox said. "It's a fence that can be built on the cheap, effective and secure."

Why don't they just build the Berlin Wall while they're at it?

The so called "Minute Men" have become an embarrassment to America and a disgrace to the name they have stolen.

Go right ahead, Mr. Simcos.

Of course you will be using union labor and union rules, following every OSHA regulation, etc.etc., I presume.

Actually this is a worthy idea. We are conservatives, are we not? It is liberals that go running to the government for everything.

Amen. I will be proud to donate a foot of fence!
Maybe to sell this idea, we could have our names on every foot donated!

I would also be proud to have an illegal (thwarted in his attempt at crossing) to read (in spanish) "This section of fence donated by...ME!"

Once again, the Minutemen are leading the way to the protection of our private property and national sovereignty!

Just wait till the EPA hears about this and declares the property "protected".

Great!

Now they will face the legal hurdles put up by the enviro NAZIS and the Fed can put more effort into litigating the cases already filed.

Did'jall hear about the feller that's going to start a Radio Free Mexico in a few months? It sounded really interesting. He thinks he is going to buy time in Mexico City, Veracruz, Monterrey, places like that, and tell the people the truth. He says Mexico has freedom of the press, he's going to say not that much different than what Calderon stands for... I don't think the mexican goobernment is going to like it much, and I don't think they're going to allow it to happen.

Posting from an engineer's perspective:

Assuming there is 2000 miles of border (just an estimate), that's 10,560,000 feet. At an estimated $150 per foot, that comes to $1.584 Trillion. Let's assume half of the border needs to be fenced due to natural barriers, that's still over $750 Billion to do the job. If each donor buys a foot of wall, that will require 5.2 million US citizens to donate $150 each. Probably feasible, but it's gonna take a lot of work.

Build new security fencing along the border with Mexico or private citizens will.
