Last week, I blogged about the serious problems with stretches of the U.S.-Mexico border fence designed to keep illegal immigrants out.
The Christian Science Monitor offers more reasons to be concerned:
“After driving 10 miles along the expanded US-Mexican border fence near her farm, Dawn Garner offers her dour assessment. ‘Anyone can plainly see this wouldn't stop a flea, let alone a migrant or terrorist. This [fence] is just too easy to cut into, climb over, or go under or around,’ says Ms. Garner. Twenty to 40 illegal migrant workers cut across her five-acre farm daily, she says.”
Pretty sad.
We can put a man on the moon, but can we build a fence that really works?
Actually, the answer is, yes, we can.
But it better be tall. Otherwise, why bother.
