Thread: (humor) Border Patrol Increases Staff By Hiring Cheap Immigrant Labor

I wish the Border really did have a fence as good as the one in the video --- the fence pictured could be the short stretch just south of San Diego that, I'm told, works pretty well. At least it shifted the invasion eastward.

Years ago, Congress appropriated money to build a real fence across the rest of the Border. But Michael Chertoff decided on a "virtual fence". All the money was spent by the time he found that drones and electronic rube goldberg devices don't stop people.

Construction workers on Wednesday go about replacing the old border fence in Nogales with a higher, see-through one. The barrier of steel, rebar and concrete will span 2.8 miles and be as high as 30 feet in some areas.
