1 Actually, they may have a point about the environmental aspects. I still say a cheaper and much more effective solution would be a forgery-proof, easily verifiable Social Security card and huge fines along with strict enforcement for businesses that hire workers who do not possess such a card. Unfortunately, the Senate won't act on that so I'll take a fence if I can get it.

6 More believable if I didn't have day to day evidence on how Mexicans treat dogs and cats...:((
To the point: animals are considered as beasts pure and simple so why the sudden PETA-like attitude?

9 removable fencing, and more permeable barriers to allow water, insects and pollen to cross the border.

Ummmm, last time I checked ALL of these things could pass through/over a fence.

14 Anyone see the irony of Mexico screaming about a border species while their disastrous urban pollution, rampant deforestation, illicit mine tailings disposal and other illegal practices are probably killing off ten to a hundred times as many other species in their interior?
