Do you think the U.S.. should build prisons along the Mexican border?

First of all, we need prisons ... and by placing them on the border with Mexico there would be a guaranteed police presence in the immediate are surrounding the prison. Illegal entrants would stay at least a mile or two from the prison and it would severely reduce the viable entry points and allow Border Patrol to narrow their search parameters as well.

The prisons should be built long, so that they can take up as much border space as possible. This would also make it convenient for those illegals that have been detained -- just escort them out the back door and back into Mexico.

Answer:
Zen, all those things you mentioned are being committed by illegal aliens.
We already have 500,000 in prison now for serious crimes like rape, murder, gang related violence etc. etc.
I think locating new prisons along the border makes perfect sense.
No prisons, mine fields.
Works for me, and leave the doors open on the Mexico side so the prisoners can "escape".
Unique ideas.
-chuckle-
I ;t;hink we should build "detention camps" similar to Maricopa style tent jails to house captured illegal immigrants. Those immigrants should have the right to freely return to Mexico, or to voluntarily stay anc construct our security fence along the border for taxed minimum wage and minimal room and board.
They should build them at your home.
Bad Idea..they will actually move into the prisons to watch cable TV...and it would be MY tax dollar paying for it!!
No because then the prisoners would escape to Mexico. We don't need your criminals.
If your premises is false your conclusion will also be false. It is not prison what we want, we need to stop supporting dictators and undemocratic government all over the world. If people treated fairly, equally and get a democratic government, believe nobody like to leave their own country.
If an inmate escapes, he will be in walking distance to the border :)
Not with my tax money. We've already spent way too much for them. The solution is not to let them in at all. Need to close up and secure our borders.
Automatic machine guns will go a better job. Bullets are much cheaper too.
What,so my tax dollars can pay for 3 square meals a day,clothes,weights,and,movies ? I don't think so.
Build the prisons and put all the illegals in it!! Send Mexico the bill!
Of course not! That would be extremely dangerous. By having the border there escape rates would skyrocket and in addition it could tear down tourism. Or example what if a drug lord ends up getting locked up in a prison there what do you think the cartels will do to get him out? ANYTHING! That is a very reckless and dangerous thought.
yes, so we can put you and those anti-illegals in them.

are you 9 years old, by the way?
Boy! Can our country get any more RACIST!!??!! I think we should concentrate on all the pedaphiles who live in our neighborhoods: checked Magen's Law in your neighborhood lately?..And the gang wars..And the drug dealers who are selling crap to our kids..And the DUIers who are STILL driving drunk. And the fact people without proper medical are dying..and our school systems are failing our children..
