Let's say that a wall or fence will not be the solution. What else can the U.S.?

What can the USA do? I believe there are lots of things to be done. \n\nI believe there should be a negotiation betwen Mexico and the USA, to get the immigration rules rebuild. There is a need to create some new mechanism, so the companies owners can get the labor they need, and the immigrants can get the work they are looking for in a legal way.\n\nI believe our goverment should start working togheter to make that a more secure border, besides of making better rules to our economical relations.\n \nI'm sure Mexico has lots of work to do in that matter, as well. We need to create enougth jobs to compete with the job market, so our conationals can comeback and stay in Mexico, that's why we need to vote very carefully in this elections.

Good fences make good neighbors.\n\nIf they would leave me alone, don't fly aircraft into buildings.  I would be more than happy to leave them alone.\n\nRemember, B-52s when kindness fails.

Yes.  Because the US government is for America and besides, what the rest of the world thinks is inconsequential.\n\nAnd what do you mean by "just solutions"?

I feek like this could pose another problem later for the US.

Your thesis needs to be arguable,  such as Better border defenses will curb illegal immigration,  or Better border defenses will not curb illegal immigration or The government needs to inact better immigration laws to help those people who legally want to immigrate to the US or The US needs to use whatever means necessary to control immigration.  That way you can add in legislation, border defenses etc.

America COULD, if she wanted, become a fortress effectively defending herself on the four horizon points from any infiltration, or attack.\n\nBut globalism and unchecked alien invasion has rendered this hypothesis a waste of time. \n\nThe Congressional sale has been going on for decades, and it's near midnite, don't you know.

I'm sure it won't go that far, most probably more diplomatic talks between these veto powered nations. Or maybe, USA might back down a bit.

It's an extremely complicated issue, and I don't think you're going to find a good solution asking here.\n\nHere's an idea, though that sounds good but still probably won't work.\n\nRaise the minimum wage more and enact harsher penalties on anyone hiring illegal immigrants. Simple, but effective. After all, extending the fence all the way could cost billions of dollars.

Well in that respect, you could just about say that every military installation is effectively defended.......there aren't that many stories out there about people trying to sneak on and being successful.    And they do use cameras to help, and I with my own eyes have seen motion detectors being used.......\nWe all know the military has the best technology,  why they refuse to implement Any technology is a clear sign that our gov. doesn't want to stop illegal immigration.  \nAnd them saying a fence won't work, is partly true.....  if they plan on just putting a chain link up...well yea that won't work.  They need to use technology on our border.  And a fence/wall that is not just one little fence.   Layers, razor wires ,concrete, steel.....and they better make sure they take the fence at least 10 ft. underground.

Building department in your county would have that answer.  They vary...but just by the fly it would stand to reason if your neighbor put up a fence then you could set a post right next to his..it's on your property and I don't think there is any setback concerning fencing...

because the USA wont allow it

so you are suggesting a 52'end state well i think it would be the only way to solve the problem, other then to built a giant wall protected by machine guns with an open fire policy.\n\nthe problem is that both these solutions are not politically correct enough, and the liberals in the government are always busy appeasing and pandering to the left.\n\nbut i like your suggestion and i would support it.

put up a wall?\n\nwho do you think will build it?\n\ndont freak out over the border so much, there are just immagrant workers who want to make enough money to eat and live a decent life.\n\nas for the "murderers and terrorists' croossing the mexican border\n\nthe terrorists responsible  for 9/11 crossed the canadian border. where there are barely any gaurds, besides a little toll-booth-like-box that checks out "suspicious" cars

Job One:  Secure the borders.  Without that, there's not much point in screwing around with anything else...might as well be rearranging deck chairs on the Titanic...

Canada should build a wall. That'll learn em!

No, but building a gigantic steel renforced concrete wall with pill boxes, machine guns, barbed wire, landmines, and cow stoppers that completely wraps th entire mainland, Alaska, and Hawaii from any bordering nation or even territory, pouring agent orange all over any domestic growth and possesions, dragging around drug sniffing dogs to check out incoming flights and their luggage, and supplying every addict in the country with 'Soft Peter', then we might almost cut the problem into a third.

It depends on what the easement is for(ie.pipeline, electrical, sanitary etc...) Get the number for your town's planning commission or building permit office.  They should be able to tell you what can or can't be built there.
