See...this is what happens when two open and free democratic countries share a border...there is no concrete answer to the question...for every defence there is a countermeasure. A physical wall would be little more than an inconvienence...and certainly no barrier to a determined terrorist.
It's kinda like down here when the word came out that the terrorists that did the 9/11 thing learned to fly at a Florida flight school...was it the fault of the flight school?? Was it the fault of Canada for letting some of them cross the border...Was it the fault of the airport security guy that let two of them on a plane when their paperwork was wrong and the way they were acting SCREAMED terrorist??
OK...now my head aches...I'm gonna go clean my weapons.

I guess putting a million dollars into every five miles of fence (that probably isn't gonna keep a determined person out anyhow) is a good investment in Americas future.
It kind of sounds like a road that goes nowhere or a dam nobody wants or has a use for anyway.
Can you smell PORK?
I'm not normally high on animal rights, but fences are the exception. If you build them on traditional migration routes, it really screws up the eco system.
I've seen Deer beat themselves to death trying to get through a fence, built on a migration route.
The Elk almost became extinct, because of fences.
One of these days, the asshats are gonna succeed in fencing in everything and then covering it in concrete.

I pretty much think the same thing as the fence with Mexico, let the women in and make the guys fill out paperwork (forever).

Why let the women in? So they can come have tons of children without a father and drain the welfare money so that people who actually need it can't get it? Or so they can take their Wick checks that are suppose to be for groceries and cash them to buy beer and cigarettes? No thanks bud.

Maybe they want the wall up so when we steal Canada's oil its easier to defend them from trying to get it back.

Irony, covert sarcasm, ridicule in the guise of a compliment or praise. Mode of speech meaning the opposite of what is said. Outcome of a situation which is the reverse of what is expected.
Example. When a Frenchman says, I wish they would throw all the tourists out of France. And you answer, what would the France do for the next generation of Frenchman, without tourists?
Example. When a Texan says, we should throw all the Wet Backs out of Texas and his buddy says, they aren't wet backs, they are your kids coming home for a visit.

Wrong place, they need to go South and build the way to divide us from Mexico. I dont recall Canadians leeching off the US.
