p> WALL OR NOTHING br> Re: Paul Chesser's Wall Power : /p> p>I'm getting a little tired of people not mentioning the many benefits of a wall/fence. One is that at the very, very least it will slow illegals down, giving border guards more time to intercept. This leads to far fewer desperate chases, where the guard(s) is concerned he(she) may be in danger, or has to tackle, wrestle, fight, or even shoot someone as he runs in the dark after desperate refugees, crooks, pregnant women, whatever. I guarantee a reduction in injuries, deaths resulting from chases. br> -- M. Scott Horn br> Akron, Ohio /p> p> The object of the wall is not to be impenetrable, just as the object of law enforcement is not to stop a crime from happening. The fence would simply channel the illegals into a smaller and easier area for pick-up, nothing will stop everybody, and all we need is to make it more expensive to cross. br> -- Ike /p>
