Replace burned out observation posts with remote guns.
Bob Grant had the best suggestion 30 years ago: landmines on the border, with loudspeakers in Spanish warning of them 24/7. Nothing would be more effective.
And this is the CRIMINAL MENTALITY that Bush, et al, want to have even more of a legal citizens in America. Sick.
As per the Patriot Act, they are terrorist.
`(A) involve acts dangerous to human life that are a violation of the criminal laws of the United States or of any State;
`(B) appear to be intended—
`(i) to intimidate or coerce a civilian population;
`(ii) to influence the policy of a government by intimidation or coercion; or
`(iii) to affect the conduct of a government by mass destruction, assassination, or kidnapping; and
`(C) occur primarily within the territorial jurisdiction of the United States.’.
From Article IV, Section 4 of the US Constitution:
The United States shall guarantee to every State in this Union a Republican Form of Government, and shall protect each of them against Invasion;
This is easy...........set up a DMZ on the border. Land mines is a good idea.
AMNESTY FOR ILLEGALS,,,,,,,yep, let’s get that billed signed, just ignore the bad behavior, in fact, let’s REWARD them for the bad behavior, instead of fining them 5k let’s GIVE them 5k........yes indeedy, life sure is good here in America........
All of this land is either National Park or national forest. If some arsonist or even some careless camper was the cause of this destruction of protected wilderness he would be going to jail and all the greens and environazis and good liberals would be up in arms. We would have nightly stories on the MSM about all the loss of our natural irreplaceable treasures, and demands that the government spend billions to fix the problem before our last saguaro and last spotted owl or gila monster is gone.
Yet here, where the net result is the same, forests destroyed, just after they were littered with tons of illegal’s trash and feces, the liberals and the amnesty crowd and the well-coifed anchors are strangely silent.
It looks like we have a new protected species - the illegal alien. He can trash up the national parks, he can set fire to the national forests, he can drive without a license, he can drive drunk, he can be in a hit-and-run accident (probably drunk), he can make and use fraudulent documents, and nobody at the Sierra Club, MADD and all the other professional do-gooders say a word.
Isn’t this a great country?
in some of the country’s most pristine national forests
They’re just trying to turn the American landscpe into a third world cesspool, so they feel a home.
By their inactions, the Bush Administration is complicit in enabling these kinds of actions.
By not dissuading the flood of illegals, and actually encouraging it with their policies, the Bush Administration is complicit in any deaths of illegals heading north to the border.
Open, uncontrolled borders are not humanitarian. They are resulting in some horrendous human tragedies, because they encourage people to take extreme chances when trying to sneak into the US.
Where’s the criminal arrests? Arson isn’t limited to structures, is it? Or vandalism?
It’s easier to set fire to a tree than to barbed wire
Well, the Border agents better not fight back, or Bush will have them all thrown in jail for years.
The immigrants are just frustrated, don’t you see?
The RNC called me today. They wanted $200. I told them to call me back when the fence was complete and the Border Patrol inmates were freed.
4 tons of pot seized every month.
That should tell us that Sen. McCrazy's state is a massive conduit for drugs and illegals. As a rule, much more gets through than is stopped (IIRC in Tijuana they used to say it was a 9:1 ratio).
And now we have direct guerrilla warfare against the U.S. Border Patrol and assaults on the Fire Service.
Does anyone believe that George Bush and Sen. McCrazy are unaware of this assault on our national security and sovereignty? Of course they know.
Congress gave DHS Secretary Chertoff more than $1 billion last year to start building the fence.
President Bush should insist on pain of firing that Sec. Chertoff immediately hire a contractor to begin fencing the 76 miles of border comprising the two sections of Coronado National Forest south of Tucson and the 10-mile section of of border between them. Chertoff should be ordered to do so post haste, in other words today. Now. Yesterday. Last week. Fast!
The lawless state of this 76 miles of border perfectly illustrates the utter contempt which the White House holds for the American people. It is disgusting.
CALL! CALL! CALL! CALL! AND KEEP CALLING TILL THE LINES FRY!
WRITE! WRITE! WRITE! WRITE! TILL YOU RUN OUT OF INK IN YOUR PEN!
Bombard the Democrats as well, especially the ones that ran on an anti illegal immigration plank and the ones in marginal districts who could be vulnerable. keep pounding on them. This is a bipartisan issue not a Conservative or Liberal issue BUT AN AMERICAN issue.
