August 1, 201411 yr Author Manning the border with physical resources is a waste of time/money. Buy some preds, put some guys on rotations in a trailer, and have a helicopter "QRF" on alert to respond to whatever the predators find. You'd only need a handful of staging bases in TX/AZ/NM/CA. Doesn't even need to be a military operation- just a "collect and deport" role. Hell, gather enough intel, and you might actual catch the coyotes and ring leaders and slow the pipelines. Stop putting Boomhower and Kletus behind the wheel of a GMC, expecting border security. Can't agree with you here partner, if you don't have a physical security system to stop unfettered crossing at any point an illegal immigrant chooses along a 2000 mile border, no amount of ISR or QRFs will ever be enough. There is some intel to be collected but the situation is really not complicated, massive amounts of people gather into small and medium sized groups and begin to sneak across the border, usually they make it to residential areas or sparse/difficult terrain and then blend in or break out when LE or CBP catches them and some get away. A triple layer fence, patrol roads, surveillance and lighting systems at the border and along the highways coming from the border for a few miles are necessary if we are actually interested in stopping people who we have no idea are coming into our country without our permission. Sometimes they even gather into large aggressive groups and pretty much have nothing but mayhem on the brain too... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZIqUkIWWCLI This is not really a law enforcement issue anymore but a national security and sovereignty issue now but Democrats want new voters and Republicans want cheap labor so America gets a DP job.

Link to the wiki on the CBP Office of Air and Marine. CBP already has quite the ISR and Rotary wing support capability, what is needed is the NG mission to be the mortar between the bricks.
