Update on my earlier post

Before the people with no sense of humor start accusing me of advocating barbarian practices, let me say this.

First, The human cannonball solution was done with zip point naught seriousness on my part. This would flood the Mexican embassy with trial lawyers seeking work visas in Mexico. hhhmmmm maybe that would cut down on medical malpractice suits and help bring down health insurance costs. I also think it would be cruel to the aliens.

Second, I made the IRS agent suggestion only half in jest. What kind of health care reform bill needs 16,000 IRS agents. Not any real ones. How many tax and spend bills would need that many agents? All of them. I am all for health care cost reform. That is why I am opposed to the Obama-Pelosi-Reid socialized health care disaster.

A simple solution to the Arizona illegal aliens problems

I was websurfing earlier today and saw an article about the Arizona border security problems with illegal aliens. Beside it was a picture of a Border Patrol Agent using binoculars to survey the border for illegal aliens. He had a pickup truck with a cap on it for holding prisoners. Then I realized what the problem was: Border Patrol Agents are too wimpy and kind-hearted for the task. They carry water and nabs for illegal aliens they find suffering from dehydration and low blood sugar.

Then I had an inspiration. Remember when President Obama ordered 1200 national guard troops sent to the border to support law enforcement agents? The troops could not actually enforce laws just support the enforcers. Now, remember how many IRS agents would need to be hired if Obamacare is not defeated? Try 16,000 or 320 per state. His actions speak louder than his words and tell of different agendas.

Why not just take 3,200 of those agents and put them on Arizona border enforcement. Take off the Border Patrol markings on the vehicles and replace them with IRS markings. At the busier crossings have an armored truck to safeguard all the fines and penalties they impose. This would make the most determined prospective illegal alien think twice before crossing.

Another quick solution. Buy cannons used by the circuses for human cannonball shows and set them up at the border. Give them a summary trial at the border then outfit them with a parachute, a water bottle and a pack of nabs. Then shoot them across the Rio Grande. Think of all the paperwork that would save not to mention cutting down on recidivist crossers.
