Also, how do we get the alligators not to use the Mexicans as a food source?

And the problem is.....?


Claymores are far cheaper and have lower maintainence requirements.

Now the antipersonal devices the East Germans used on the Wall...might
have some utility in this application." Horn Mine"


On the other hand..lasers or charged partical beam weapons may be just
the thing. Long level stretchs make great environments for discharging
a linear weapon. Envrionmental disturbances would only fire the
weapon, which would be immediately ready for the next shot.


Or..we could take a page from the Russians in Afghanistan. Where they
disguised antipersonel mines as childrens toys, we could do the same
but disguised as burritos and tacos and 6 packs of Bud, salted along
the border.

Making sure other people play nice and dont kill each other (and us)
off in job lots is hardly empire building, particularly when you give
them self determination under "play nice" rules.

for torturing the cat." Gunner
