i had written a post that went point by point through some of the arguments above but i deleted itmostly because i decided it was dignifying with a serious response arguments that do not merit one. putting landmines along the border to aim folk who try to cross without---well what, really? you think landmines discriminate between folk who are properly documented and those who arent? you think landmines ask questions before they take off someone's legs or worse? shoot to kill on the border? in what context can you even propose this kind of thing, much less take it seriously?
truly vile stuff, folks.
