Personally, I would prefer to see something done with the illegal aliens we have here presently. It is frustrating as a law enforcement officer to come across someone here illegally and we are told to let them go. The wall may help, but I would rather see the money used elsewhere.

I do agree that a physical wall is a useless endeavor. Joe Pascarella Latrivia,

I’m truly irritated by the build a fence safety measure that the United States Government has devised. With all of the many women and men from various agencies that have to put their lives on the line each day to try to stop the smuggling of drugs, people, sexually explicit material, etc., we should consider developing more sound plans that help strengthen their position. After all, we did go to the moon, and while I say that sarcastically, there is a certain amount of pride and quality that should go into any project that we have to stamp the US label on. However, this time, I believe that we continue to drop the ball on illegal immigration from our southern brethren. Sure the great wall worked wonders thousands of years ago, but now, I believe that we should integrate a little modern technology into the plan. People sit on both sides of this debate focusing on the human rights issues. However, there is a larger component of this that deals directly with the safety of American citizens. There is a reason for social security numbers, state identification and other earmarks to keep up with citizens and legal aliens. When you take away simple safety measures, you lose your ability to control or monitor. By having so many illegals with all types of problems living in the US with no way to be controlled or monitored we will continue to see increases in all types of crime. Are we paying close enough attention to the rising numbers in violent crime and their correlation to the growing illegal population? What are the ratios for capture and deportation vs. the ones that slip through the cracks only to be allowed to commit the same crimes or more heinous ones again. There is a true link to the problems that American’s are suffering through and the fallen borders. Well Dr. Pascarella,
