  Here we go with Fortress America, too afraid to live in the world we decided to lock it all out.

  There’s also a nature reserve in AZ (I think) that’s being split in half by this fence. It’s a migratory home to two species of bird that only land there and a subspecies of coyote that only lives there. The birds might adapt but the coyotes aren’t expected to. Sad, really.

  It’s sad what the US is willing to lose and make a big deal for just to put up a fence that probably won’t even do what Homeland security wants it to do.

  Happens in Isreal/Palestine all the time. Noone here even notices….ooops until it happens to a golf course.

  It just emphasizes the idiocy of building the fence in the first place.

  What we really need is tall, thick wall with automated gun turrets every hundred yards or so–turrets that shoot anything that moves. If we’re going to do this, we should really do it right. Either close off the border in an effective manner or open it up completely and let in anyone who wants in. This half-baked approach that we’re currently doing is ridiculous.

  I can see using eminent domain to build fence. However, it is a crock that govt does not have to buy all the property that gets put south of the border, unless owner is allowed to put ladders on that fence…

  Hmm. Mexicans are doing all the jobs most americans don’t want to. Let’s put up a fence to keep any more from getting in, ship out the ones who came here because they couldn’t make it in their country, and then wonder where all our labor went.
  I don’t care about the golf course, I do not agree with tearing a reserve in half. If the coyotes can integrate (DUH there’s a fence in the way…) then chances are good (bad) that the ecosystem will be off-kilter. What’s the point of a reserve anyway??

  How much do you wanna bet that the Mexico side of the golf course is excellently maintained while the USA side deteriorates?

  Also, does this mean we’ll be seeing illegal immigrants dressing up like golfers?

  i just have to say… HAHAHAHAHHAHAHA AAAHHHHHAAAHAHAHAHAHAHA! OH OH WAIT HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! HHHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHAHAHA! ok. wait HAHAHAHA! alright. alright. enough of this junk. the whole mentality that our country is going to sh*t BECAUSE of immigration is a load of crap. our government is sooo stupid sometimes that i can’t believe this country has lasted this long under the same name. ‘united’ states? more like ‘everyone does their own thing while the gov’t severely limits them’ states. can’t wait to move to canada…
