Not bad indeed
If any of you have done any time along the US - Mexico border you know the futility in trying to do this by driving up and down the border,, Technology is needed and fast..

No one wants the fence and it is not the total answer for sure, so why not make it virtual and do it with less men and effort.

I travel a stretch of highway that parallels the US/Mex border for about 60 miles from Columbus, New Mexico, to El Paso, Texas. To see the Border Patrol working the job every day is pathetic.. There are streches of dirt roads where illegals on foot would have to walk across.. The Agents check these miles of roads for tracks every morning,, Try to run down anyone they can catch, and then before dark,,go back to the road and drag devices behing their SUVs to wipe out the tracks and make ready for another nite...

Those radar and sensors can see much farther and cover more ground than what is required now and they do it with better results. Oh yea, I have seen Mexican Males climb the fence into the US with in 150 yds of a heavily used border crossing at Agua Prieta and Douglas Az.. Fences will slow it down but never stop the illegals from coming. Need technology
