That has its ironies, all right. Isn’t Pamela Taylor British?

"If the first fence didn’t work what makes him (Hunter) think two fences are going to work?"

Actually, I think the fence has worked where they built it. It obviously doesn't work where they didn't build it.

"There are so many things we need to put the money into," such as health care, Taylor, 80, said. "We worry too much about the (activities in) Mexico. We need to worry about the United States."

What a moron! We are worrying about the United States you idiot. We're undergoing the largest land invasion in the history of the world.

I have long pointed out that the border is not equal. There are large sections of the border that are extremely difficult to cross just naturally, with no roads, even dirt roads, no water, no food, and nobody living on dozens of miles on either side of the border.

This is important, because the vast majority of illegal aliens pass through relatively narrow corridors in the border, and once these are fenced, they cannot just “go around” without raising the “degree of difficulty” considerably.

The *opponents* of restricting illegal aliens from entering have long tried to stop the fence, because the fence is the most effective way of stopping illegals. But, and this is critical, if the fence is to be built, they try and get it put out in the middle of nowhere *first*, leaving the corridors open. They then hope that the political mood will change against the fence, so the corridors will *never* be blocked.

It’s also important to distinguish those parts of the border used for “immigrants”, vs. those parts that are used by drug traffickers, and “internationals”, non-Mexican illegal aliens. They actually avoid the corridors, and try to cross where there are no people, but there are dirt roads. These sites are mostly in Texas.

The most effective way of stopping these crossings are to place boulders on the dirt roads which prevent vehicle movements. This is because there is no foot traffic here, only vehicles. Fencing won’t work as well, because these crossers have the means to either cut through or go over the fence. Vehicles have to be blocked North of the border. And boulders are cheap.

“”There are so many things we need to put the money into,” such as health care, Taylor, 80, said. “We worry too much about the (activities in) Mexico. We need to worry about the United States.””

Moron alert! Health care...like for millions of illegal aliens? And NO one is worried about the ‘activities in Mexico’, to OUR peril! How about the daily crimes being committed here by illegal alien Mexicans?

At least ‘Taylor’ is too old to breed, but unfortunately likely still votes.
