Jeepers.
You’re talking about picking off non-combatant border crossers.

1. If it truly is an invasion, the proper response by the US military would be to go on the offensive and set-up a buffer zone, and not take up a defensive position. But even that is extreme.

2. Border crossings account for ~40% of illegal immigration. The rest comes from expired visas. Your “solution” doesn’t address that at all.

They're invaders not simply border crossers.
Moreover, it's clear that this is an existential question: how many more border crossers until the US ceases to be [culturally] the US?
We see it being pushed by Mexico, which publishes go to the US how-to documents, as well as our own political elite — doing the jobs Americans won't do is their PR/news-bite justification, but it's more sinister than that: the middle class is being eradicated and these foreign nationals are being brought in to replace them. One reason is because they're from countries which are a lot more overtly totalitarian and corrupt, by eliminating the middle class and infusing the pool of common men with these they strip society of the ability to resist as well as the will to resist.

The above is also the reason that neither the Republican or Democrat party will do anything against these foreign invaders: (a) they want them here, and (b) to address the problem is to acknowledge the invasion (again, they numerically comprise 3.5% to 12.7% of the population) and (c) to do so would expose the federal government for its malfeasance [Art 4, Sec 4 requires them to protect against invasion] as well as allow the States to jeopardize their power [a governor, recognizing the invasion and calling up the state's military might as response would force the federal government into a no-win situation].

1. If it truly is an invasion, the proper response by the US military would be to go on the offensive and set-up a buffer zone, and not take up a defensive position. But even that is extreme.

I'm not against responding with an offensive… there's just huge operational security issues when 3.5% to 12.7% of the population in your logistics-space (friendly/controlled territory you use to produce/procure/supply the frontlines) is nominally aligned with your enemy. (Furthermore, that they are clustered on your own population clusters makes for a very good guerrilla-warfare or terror-campaign setup on their part.)

2. Border crossings account for ~40% of illegal immigration. The rest comes from expired visas. Your “solution” doesn’t address that at all.

That solution doesn't address those already here either. There are some ways that could be done; but acknowledging the invasion is a necessary first-step.
(And unless it's treated like an invasion, it's not really acknowledging it, is is?)
