Here are a few of my ideas other than a wall.
1. Move military bases to the border. Just having them there creates barriers and the desert is a perfect environment to train soldiers for future wars. Then there would be no need to EVER move troops down there again for any reason cuz they already are there.
2. Drones. Not only should drones watch the border 24/7, like the NSA watches law abiding American citizens, perhaps, just perhaps, instead of sending out drones to target terrorists abroad they would send them to take out drug lords who kill about 300 Americans every day. After all, what terrorist murders 300 Americans every day?
3. Ports of entry need to be monitored. According to the government, most of the drugs make it through ports of entry. First of all, how do they know this? Do they see the drugs come through and do nothing or do they just assume it does and do nothing? Either way, they are to blame for this epidemic for doing NOTHING!
My guess is though, it's just a lie to be an argument for not building a wall, a wall that helps solve other issues as well, such as human trafficking and mass illegal immigration that is crushing the entitlement system in the US.
Make no mistake, Mexico is at war with the US. More US citizens die from drugs coming over every year than those who died in Vietnam. The only question becomes, when will the US wake up and fight back? Are US politicians in the back pockets of the drug cartels like they are in Mexico and Central America?
