U.S.-Mexican smuggling tunnels
150 tunnels have been found since 1990, most of them incomplete.[4]
On January 25, 2006, a tunnel was found on the US-Mexico border by a joint U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration, U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement, and U.S. Border Patrol task force. The 2400-foot-long (720m) tunnel runs from a warehouse near the Tijuana airport to a warehouse in San Diego. When discovered, it was devoid of people, but it did contain 2 tons of marijuana. It was 5 feet high and up to 90 feet deep. The floor was made of cement and the walls were exposed clay, with lights lining one side, a ventilation system to keep fresh air circulating, and a water drainage system to remove infiltrating ground water. Authorities said it was unclear how long the tunnel had been in operation.
On January 30, U.S. Immigrations and Customs Enforcement agents arrested a Mexican citizen, who was linked to the tunnel via the U.S. warehouse, operated by V&F Distributors LLC. On the Friday before, January 27, immigration authorities reportedly received information that the Mexican cartel behind the operation was threatening the lives of any agents involved with the construction or occupation of the tunnel. US Customs and Immigration, however, pledged to protect them as best they can. Authorities believe Tijuana's Arellano-Felix drug syndicate, or some other well-known drug cartel, was behind the building and operation of the tunnel.[5]
On November 26, 2010, a 2,600 foot (800m) tunnel was discovered linking Tijuana to Otay Mesa, California.[6] In the same month another tunnel was discovered between these two cities. Both tunnels were discovered by a San Diego Task Force and are believed to be the work of Mexico's Sinaloa cartel. Over 40 tons of cannabis was found and confiscated between the two.[7]
An analysis of U.S.-Mexican smuggling tunnels, the U.S.-Canadian smuggling tunnel and the smuggling tunnels in the Rafah, Gaza Strip was completed by Lichtenwald and Perri as part of a transnational analysis of smuggling tunnels.[8][9] Lichtenwald and Perri outlined sources and methods for evaluating which tunnels are used by different populations in various parts of the world to smuggling contraband that does not threaten a nations security as opposed to tunnels that smuggle contraband that do threaten a nations security. Hybrid tunnels, tunnels that smuggle contraband that threaten a nations security as well as those that do not, are detailed.
In December 2012, a yard diameter and football length tunnel which had electricity and ventilation was found near the Nogales port of entry.[10] Since 1990, there have been almost 170 tunnels found leading into Mexico, mostly in Arizona and California.[11]
On February 14, 2014 an underground drug tunnel was discovered in Nogales, Arizona. The tunnel spanned 481 feet, or longer than 1 1/2 football fields. The tunnel was being used to smuggle marijuana and other drugs into the U.S. Another 590 pounds of marijuana was seized after federal agents stopped a vehicle they saw driving away from the residence. 46 pounds of marijuana and half a pound of heroin was found inside the tunnel. Three people have been arrested in connection with the bust.[12]
The tunnels should be implanted with explosives and destroyed without regard as to who or what is in them at the time.
So what enforcement method do you propose to help stop the drugs and hoards of illegals flooding across the border?? .....Go ahead and build more fencing. The fence that's been there all these years haven't even slowed them down.

As usual, you ignore the substance of the OP in favor of spewing your brainless hate. EXACTLY what I expect from a doctor/lawyer/psychiatrist/dog washer.
Thanks for never letting me down.

Decriminalize drugs and implement a braceros type program.

Decriminalize drugs and implement a braceros type program.
And how is that program going to secure our borders? ....
OK then.......explain it to me. ...So we should legalize heroin?Decriminalize drugs and implement a braceros type program.

Go to Google earth and take a good look at what BP is up against.

One by fucking one if necessary.

You don't understand the problem because you have not been directly effected by it and you don't understand how a healthy economy works and you don't care about the citizens that have been adversely effected by it. All ilk like you care about is perpetuating your dangerous bleeding heart liberal views. How many illegal aliens have you taken into your house? Second amendment.
I would go with massive air strikes against Mexico city, killing as many civilians as you can, then see if you get charged with war crimes.
