What would be a reasonable compromise on this wall issue ?

i want productive suggestions without calling anyone a treasontrump or libtard. and i dont want any arguments why it should be build or why not...

make a suggestion how to solve this dilemma in a way that makes the other side look good. you dont want to "win" you want a compromise and that will hurt you.

Disclaimer: the joke with build only half a wall i claim for myself.

All we need is the means to significantly reduce the number of illegals coming into the US. It could be done with four satellites and 1200 interactive drones, and a well equipped border patrol. A good wall would be nice, but there are so many ways to get drugs and thugs into the states, a big wall would just be token gesture at the end of the day. The scary thing is, a good number of people sneaking in from the south aren't even from these two continents. Something absolutely has to be done. One of my biggest peeves about the mule trails is that they are rape, drugs, and murder trails.

@puck61 so basically instead of a physical wall a drone wall observing the border... i could see that as an option

@NoSugar It would be more effective than a solid barrier or obstruction, but I would imagine more expensive. A person can use an RCD, or a drone, or a damn trebuchet to get stuff over the border. Even people can be catapulted these days if they know what they are doing.

@puck61 i love the trebuchet image... if the wall leads to more trebuchets build i want a wall

@NoSugar There is a MEME OP , if I ever saw one!

@puck61
I think part of this issue is that several topics have been conflated to a single, simple idea ... different actions need different approaches, yes? Drug smugglers are one thing, human smugglers are another, asylum seekers are another, gang members are another, etc. etc. etc.
