Well that�s because we do need to secure our border, but the border fence is a dip-chit idea. Look where we have fences now, countless tunnels, cut fences, people going over the fence, under the fence. A fence keeps out the really brain dead�anyone more than room temperature can figure out now to circumvent the fence. It�s the biggest expenditure of money for the least return on our dollars. What do you want, symbolism or results? Sounds like you�re more interested in symbolism. I on the other hand would actually like to see money used in a productive fashion and end up with a secure border.
What was it that Patton said??? "Fixed fortifications are a monument to the stupidity of man" Something to that effect.
You don't seem to understand that a fence can and does influence flow and causes smugglers to adapt.
While only a fool would believe it stops all flow along a border, it is impossible to dispute their effectiveness when combined with personnel.
