What Kind of Wall Exactly?

I read several articles on how this solution should be achieved. Physical wall, virtual wall, drones, electricity, sensors, what? For starters we have to remember its purpose. It is truly supposed to strategically defend and deter people from entering this country illegally.

The solution really becomes the problem. Once you announce your solution, the masses work towards usurping it. This is the single biggest mistake those who don't understand the creativity to problem solving make. What people hear from others, what they see in front of them, as well as what they read become their baseline of how to usurp the system. That is the essence of the problem. This is what makes Americans angry is this usurping the law, the system, and by doing it in mass form, you create a problem that appears to be expensive and insurmountable. Therefore, you need to attack the problem with a solution, but not a static one. The solution needs to be nimble.

Once people understand that a physical barrier of any kind exists, they feel like they have the opportunity to exploit its weaknesses. However, if the offender can't see the barrier, how can they find a way around it, underneath it or above it? That is the key to the solution. This is a war, not simply an issue of security. We need to treat it as such and find solutions that are inexpensive, creative, nimble, invisible and have an unlikeable result.

There is no faster wall than an electric one. You can build it and have it up in no time. The electricity provides several solutions. One, it can't be seen, which is exactly what we need based on this premise. If it can't be viewed, the enemy doesn't know how to usurp it. If you are talking about underground, then you electrify underneath the ground as well. We need to utilize sensors and maybe these sensors move, like the electrical grid. The grid is directly connected to drones which not only review the areas of penetration, but fire upon those with legal forms of weaponry to deter any further illegal activity on our border before the border patrol can arrive. This will be the most cost effective long term solution where you combine electricity, technology and manual labor to solve the problem in defending our country. As time moves forward the unmanned drone and electricity combined will be a perfected and efficient experience. Think Minority Report.

Most importantly, you use electricity not only to power but provide information through that power. Sensors provide information, and those sensors would not be visible to the naked eye. The main concept is placement, ease of doing so, and cost effectiveness. Your approach should be a mystery to those trying to get around it. It should have a strategy that makes people think even if they aren't trying to get into our country. Most importantly it should be something that demands respect, because we already know we aren't going to receive it, as polite social graces from anyone around us or in nations nonadjacent is vacant.

Again, we are looking for a result, and the result should not only be keeping people out of this country, but getting the respect that is due. Once you design something that is nimble, invisible and has consequences all or most of these problems will go away.

Now, let's build a wall, and make all of them pay for it.
