A physical fence in this day and age is just a Republican myth that because it's there that it stops illegal immigration. The loudmouths in NYC, the Beltway and all other points don't know that the Border Patrol doesn't sit on the fence beyond civilized areas. The real answer is high tech means of detection, but with this administration and their no contest system of evaluating contracts.... LMMFAO Then again, illegal immigrants here should be afforded a measure of amnesty because tearing apart families simply isn't right and is "Un-American". MOONBAT Says:
