If we can build a road, we can build a fence
I was just thinking (I know, dangerous proposition), as I sit behind the
computer and post here on the forum, the cable TV is running off in the background... And, as I often do when I get a chance, I'll peruse a variety of my favorite channels - most of which are News, Weather and the HistoryChannel. Right now (9:20am Pacific) on THC, if you tune in, there is a program overviewing the history of the AlCan highway.
For those critics that say : 'it is impossible to build a 1800 mile fence or
wall across the US/Mexico border', consider that the AlCan Highway:
* Was built in less than 1 year
* Spanned 1500+ miles
* Encompassed terrain / engineering challenges not previously addressed in large scale in the continental US (building over permafrost)
* Required workers to labor in arctic conditions - even in the peak of an arctic winter
* Was built almost exclusively with military personnel and resources
Building a large fence through a couple thousand miles of desert, with newer equipment and resources, under better conditions, should, by comparison, be pretty damn easy.
...Just my opinion, but please do think about it.Join our efforts to Secure America's Borders and End Illegal Immigration by Joining ALIPAC's E-Mail Alerts network (CLICK HERE)
