Why spend the money? Do them like I did the tweekers squatting on the property to the north of mine. Tell them, this fence is the line between us. That side is my property. If you don't want your dogs, or yourselves to get shot, respect the fence, and stay off my side. And don't be wishy washy about it. Make it clear.
I did, and they respect the fence. I only had to shoot one of their dogs to make them know that I was serious.


The fingerprint is if they are caught the second time will be a long stay in the crossbars hotel. Then deported. This way they can be denied legal entrance to our beautiful country.

Comprehensive Immigration Reform would have to address the southern border issues like this????

Simple just build the dammed wall, and stop stupid Obama's "Catch & Release" policy and have mandatory E-Verify


I agree but I prefer fingerprint verification. It is more accurate. 😉😎

Crews Begin Construction of New Wall at El Paso-Juárez Border


On the U.S.-Mexico border, construction crews have begun work on a new steel wall separating El Paso, Texas, from neighboring Ciudad Juárez. The new 4-mile-long section of 18-foot-high wall will replace an existing border fence, at an estimated cost of $22 million. This is El Paso County Commissioner David Stout speaking at a protest against the wall earlier this week.

David Stout: “It damages this community, because ours is a binational community. We all have family, friends and co-workers who live on that side and work here, or vice versa. And in my opinion, we’re sending a very ugly message to our brothers in Mexico, while it’s one of the countries we in the United States depend on the most economically, especially the communities along the border.”

Immigrant Fathers & Children on Hunger Strike in Texas Detention Center


Elsewhere in Texas, immigrant rights groups say some 70 immigrant fathers and some of their children have launched a hunger strike as they languish inside the Karnes County detention center, a for-profit immigration jail under contract with ICE. The fathers on strike had been previously separated from their children at the U.S.-Mexico border under the Trump administration’s “zero tolerance” crackdown. Now reunited behind bars, fathers and their children are demanding immediate freedom. This is one of the hunger strikers, speaking by phone with the group Pueblo Sin Fronteras, or People Without Borders.

Father in ICE detention: “Today we started a hunger strike. Our children are with us. They are not attending their schools, nor are they eating. We are afraid that ICE is going to retaliate against us and separate us again, as they separated 16 parents on August 15th. … I don’t understand the laws of this country. They are unjust. The majority of the parents who were reunited were freed.”
The hunger strike at Karnes detention center comes as new numbers released by the Trump administration show at least 136 migrant children separated from their parents at the border are still in U.S. government custody, more than two months after a deadline set by a federal judge for reunification. Three of the children are under the age of 5.

It is so infuriating when these people enter our country illegally, bringing childre n along to increase their sympathy factor, but gave the unmitigated gall to complain about treatment and make demands. Our country is being run by lunatics.

To say that all liberals are lunatics is too nice and PC but it is correct.

What ticks me off the Socialist Democrat want them to come so they can use them as cheap labor for their crops.

Once elections are over and crops gathered they throw them under the bus. Like they did the "Dreamers" when they had no more use for them.

I know Doctors and Nurses who work on this side of the border. They can be very rude at times, but they take their money back across the border to spend. Seen this in Juarez and Palomas.

Wouldn't making the children starve be considered cruel and abusive? If so, they should be separated so the children can eat.
