I agree with you anywhere you have the mile strip on government owned land.
How do you propose to have that 1 mile strip where the land is privatively
owned? Do we use emanate domain to buy all that land?

Reading some of the things homeowners that live along the border have had
happen to their property, I would empower them to protect their property by any
means available.
I'm sure some of those 'good-old-boys along the border could come up with some
cheep entertaining way to solve their local problem.
I would extend this citizens protected zone to say 10 miles inland.

 EH>> Oh yeah, that's a realistic plan, John.

They would be much more effective if they had government support.

Amen, hallelujah, you got that right.

Only if the government has an ID program in place.
I do not think it is fair for someone like me that will hire the occasional day
laborer from the street corner, to go to what would be a major expense, not
only in money but time. By the time I did the research to make sure I won't go
to jail, the day will be gone.
Your idea may work with coporations where it can be shown HR has a pattern of
hiring illegals, but not with the thousands of small bussiness like mine.


 JH>>> 'Wetback' is a synonym for illegal alien and you know it.

That's what I remember being taught in school in the 60's


 JH>>> I refuse to use 'illegal immigrant' because they aren't immigrants,
 JH>>> they're f*cking invaders!

Thank you.



 JH>>> And, before anybody says anything, I don't care one whit what

 JH>>> aren't legal, they're invaders and should be treated accordingly.

 JH> I can't believe the moronic posture some people take on illegals.  You

Yep.
