ORIGINAL: jlf1961 I agree with the idea that the southern border needs to be secured, the question is how. Recently a drug smuggling tunnel was discovered that was more than 20 feet deep. Granted, it was used to smuggle drugs into the United States, but similar tunnels could be dug to move people. In theory, one could dig a foundation for a fence along the border that was a hundred feet deep to prevent such tunnels. You could also plant sensors along the border that would detect tunnels as they are being dug. I might point out that as secure as the border was between east and west Berlin, there were tunnels dug under the Berlin wall on a number of occasions. JLF, just like we secure S. Korea's border since 1952 or so now, minefields, sensors and troops. And those have worked so well, except of course for all the times when they didn't. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Axe_murder_incident
