If someone gets scratched on that barbed wire they will probably sue the U.S. and win.

Do you think there will ever be a President and congress that will ever do anything about it? Im pretty sure that Mexico has been to our south since the beginning ...... and yet no President has taken care of the problem.
I guess when the day comes that a person or group walks across carrying a dirty bomb and kills a bunch of people then they will react after the fact and take security more seriously.

You could be right. What gets me is that big fence all of a sudden stopping. IIRC the money was appropriated to finish the fence and it got stopped. Why? |

Actually, Mexico hasn't been to our South since the beginning. It used to be to our SW. The whole of our Southwest including TX and CA, was once Mexico. They lost it during the Manifest Destiny years. We tend to forget that... |

I did not forget .... I thought what I was saying would be self evident.

I didn't mean to imply that you didn't realize that.
My intent was not to point out an error. It was to sprinkle in a dose of perspective.

$1,500,000,000 was appropriated to build a "border fence". An amendment to that bill stated the the Secretary of Homeland Security would determine what kind of fence, and where it would be built. The Secretary has yet to make that determination.
