OK my math was bad, doesn't change the FACT that the border with Mexico is SIGNIFICANTLY longer than the border with Korea, and the DMZ is still not 100% secure. I didn't say it "doesn't work", the matter at hand is people insisting we can "seal" the border with Mexico, if we can't "seal" (achieve 100% security, no penetration) the border with Korea how can we possibly seal the border with Mexico? Answer: we can't.

No. We can't "seal" the border. Nor do I think machine guns are the answer. But we can by due diligence and a reallocation of resources reduce the flood of millions of illegals down to a few hundred, or even a few thousand, per year. Heck, if we could just shut the flow down so that only 10,000 per year could get across, that would mean only 100,000 in 10 years. Pretty darn good compared to where we are today.
