Think of the tax money we would be able to get. Charge for a terrorist hunting license. $500.00 per month. No bag limit. But you do have to bring in the corpse. Otherwise if caught the charge is littering and the fine is $10,000.00. We have to keep this area clean! We could also have pre-made sniper nests that rent out for $100.00 per day. Built in monitors so that you get to see who is coming.
We also need an IFF system installed. We do not want any friendly fire casualties. So we put a deposit on the IFF you have to wear when out in the field. This unit also does a gps track on you and is a cell phone. Yes this system could work. You would have to be trained at a cost to you and be deputized to enforce the border crossing law. So all congress needs to do is put a shoot to kill order on the books and the rest of the system would fall into place. The cell phone/tracker would have a noise activated system to record all shots fired. Gun type and ammunition would have to be standardized. Each round would be at a cost of $10.00? We would not allow pictures or video of any hunt on government property. The only documentation allowed would be by registered media. That way the first amendment would not be violated.
Sounds like a plan to me. So who is going to take this to his/her congressman?

My congressman is a flaming liberal democrat and will not have anything to do with this idea. This is a job for Conservative Man, man of much stamina and good living. Take it away Mr...

Amy you sound like General MacArthur during the Korean War. He wanted to nuke the North Koreans and create a dead zone by spreading nuclear waste on the ground.
If memory serves me correctly he was right. We should have nuked the Chinese as records have shown they did not have the bomb and would have retreated.
Ah well 20/20 hind sight.

In my mind, WoMD are not necessary and shouldn't be used. All they do is cause problems, and they are simply sitting in a bunker somewhere, collecting dust. WoMD's are not the answer...

Womd are not necessary? Tell that to Japan. They would not have surrendered and we would have had to fight a longer WW2. They are necessary for future defense, and possibly offense. I admit that I do not know how they will be used if they are ever used.
We have revealed that the Chinese would have folded upon use of nukes. That is they would have retreated into their own territory, thus ending the Korean conflict with a clear win for our side. MacArthur was right, nuke them until they glow in the dark. Again this is 20/20 hindsight.
As for selling this program to my congressman, I would rather try to sell Castro on democracy as I would have a better chance of changing his mind!

We should treat illegals like coyotes, and pay people on a per kill basis to eradicate.
Or even better make a gauntlet for illegals to run, like "The Running Man" and make a game show out of illegal immigration.

Got your papers RUB? Oh wait he looks illegal - bang. Oops, well just shove him off into the bush and move on. Open season on illegals means that all of us are targets. I have had enough bullets whiz past me to make me not want to do that again any time soon. Let alone have to yell "Wtf are you shooting for you damn fool." I would be dead by the time I said "Wh..." That is just how fast it happens.
I would prefer command controlled mine fields. "There is one in sector five. Roger. Boom." "Do we get the remains or leave them for the coyotes sir?" Even this has a down side. How many people can you pull the switch on before you go nuts? I had a previous post on this subject that referenced the German studies done in WW2. There is a limit and it is not all that big. Killing people creates a psychosis no matter if it is justified or not. So the mine field idea is of limited use. This is the reason cops and other law enforcement people use minimum force. Even justified shootings create problems.
Case in point: We had a local cop who yelled at a suspect to stop, got in the path of the suspect, held up his hand, yelled again. The suspect did not stop. As this guy was supposed to be armed and had held a hostage the cop shot the suspect once in the chest with a shotgun. Even with immediate aide the suspect died on the scene. Now the madness that followed.
The guy who was shot was DEAF. He was not the hostage taker. It was a case of matching description right down to the eye color. That cop is still... Sorry but no more information is available.
Now extrapolate - you kill a kids parents. Wow now you have a screaming crying kid who you have just killed the support for. Are you going to remain sane? I doubt it.
Maybe if we used mortars or artillery or aircraft dropped bombs we could have sanity. But the spotters would go nuts, bonkers, etc.
With posted zones the idea may work for a while. You have to limit the hunting area to our borders. Yes both borders so that we will stop the real terrorists from Canada. Alaska is simple. Make it an native American reservation within 20 miles of the Canadian border. The natives know how to handle that problem and would be happy to end any more immigration problems. We would have a hunting zone that would have to be clearly marked. Until the illegals start carrying guns and hunt back. The people doing the hunting must be volunteers. Volunteers may work for a while. When they get sick of it then they would quit.

Lets just make a huge electric fence, and fry 'em. or maybe a poison taco stand on the way into the US?
Or we could just all move to Mexico. and start businesses there, and fix their water problem ( ;D).
I still think a gauntlet run for freedom type gameshow would be great. proceeds could go to border control and people could vote for their favorite illegal via phone everynight.
So bored of DDG URBing

We have tried the fence idea, but some one thought about it and dug under it. Shovels are cheaper than a fence. Labor is free so we are not going any where with that idea. Also it would take an electric power plant that could provide power to a whole city to power that sucker. You want to pay that bill? Especially when the holes under it defeat the fence. Waste of juice in my opinion.
This whole thread was started as a joke to see if a real solution could come from out of the blue. Try harder people. The winner gets a safer free United States of America.

Borrowing from a favorite comedian of mine...
We need to make the boarder a literal "River of Fire"! 1. Creates Jobs: people need to haul the gas to keep the fire going 2. Keeps Unwanted Out: not many people can wade through an inferno 50 ft wide 3. Tourist Attraction: come have a picnic, see our neighbors to the south roast as you enjoy your roast sandwich 4. Entertainment: we could have like an On/Off switch; to give the illeagles a small glimmer of hope, to only crush it as we turn the river back on as they are half way across
