Herman Cain's proposal to fight illegal immigration with alligator-filled moats and electrified walls irks Hispanic GOP group

A national Hispanic GOP group is calling for Herman Cain to drop his presidential candidacy after he proposed curbing illegal border crossings with a giant electrified wall next to a moat filled with alligators. (Try writing that sentence without laughing.) Somos Republicans says it'd expect Cain, who touts himself as a problem solver, "would know that problems are solved not by treating symptoms but by addressing root causes."
Their release is worth reading in its entirety, but here's a snippet:

"Not a "practical solution" to the immigration problem? "Practical" has proven not to have worked.
If Cain is serious, he has my 2012 vote.
This is as serious as I've heard in 50 years.

I cannot argue with this. The feds will not do the job, so lets the state do it for them if it's the only way to get it done.

Some sort of border fence should stretch all along the border to keep out unsophisticated intruders from merely walking across, but what's really needed is big fines and jail terms for scofflaw employers.

Will there be lawn chairs and concession stands for refreshments while we watch the brave ones who attempt to cross? Will there be betting???

There is nothing "brave" about tucking your tail between your legs and running away when things get rough for your country. Never saw Americans running away when this get a little rough. The "brave" one are like the young girl that took the job of Chief of Police and others who are fighting and dying for their country. Other brave ones are those waiting by the law to enter legally.
We have 20 million cowards that has invaded and occupied this country that we have fought and died for.
They need to get some cajones and go home and make Mexico a better place for all.
As a matter of fact that is exactly what they are doing when the economy went bad. Packing and beating a path back across the border.
Quite a sight to see them scurrying across the border like a pack of rats.
Nothing brave about them jumping over a fence that a pregnant woman can scale in 20 seconds, in their designers clothes and cell phones looking for a better life from America's freebies.

MESSAGE TO THE PEOPLE OF MEXICO​

We, american hypocrites, want you to stay in Mexico to make it a better place for all Mexicans but if we were in your shoes we'd be jumping that fence faster than a roadrunner racing a jackrabbit.

We, citizens of the United States of Hypocrisy, want you to do as we say not as we'd do!!
