I think he's looking for specifics so I'll offer one and that is pepper spray. Tear gas is pretty nasty and indiscriminate. Capsaicin hurts but isn't nearly as harmful unless some idiot swallows a bunch of worlds hottest peppers.
A fence is a wasteful and bad idea. Keeping people out and making them go through a process is right, so long as that process is not fucked. We have a fucked process and that helps nobody.
What's weird about america is that this is repelling an invasion but if I am a filthy rich foreigner I can buy my way in, lobby congressmen and even discuss business with presidential aides
It's funny the fence is working vs poor moms with babies who are running from being raped and killed by cartels.
It doesn't work for shit against opiod bringing drug dealers and richer immigrants who are willing to pay cartels to use their tunnels.
Good, that keeps some of the illegals out is what you are saying. As I said, it will stop a lot of the low hanging fruit but now solve the problem. I don't want Mexico's refugees that are going to be societal parasites. Maybe Mexico should work on being great in stead of being run by cartels...
OK let's drop the "them". What in your opinion should immigration look like, open borders? Token screening and releasing? Once you have identified a goal and without referring to politics but solutions, what should be done to arrive, meaning what steps and again no Left, no Trump, none of that. Consider it a job and you have been employed to find a solution.

My goal? Zero population growth. Stability and sustainability. The sooner the better.
That'd require slashing all annual immigration to mere thousands.
Only if Mexico pays for it first, not later.Build the wall.
Yawn. Fox is so trashy. Just scaring senile people out of their wits all day because it is shown that scared people become more conservative.
Throw it higher!Build it taller.

Your Maginot line. That failed too. You know what? Hire people including immigration judges to process in a timely way and spend a fraction of what you would have on the Orange Elephant.
I'm all for a wall and improving / streamlining the immigration process. But securing our border should be step number one. It is too easy to simply walk across, this would stop a lot of the easy clean up, the low hanging fruit.
No one cared about building barriers / walls / fences before. You only care and are against it today because Trump wants it.

I only care about it now because no one was dumb enough to cause it to be a concern before. It would have been stupid earlier as well. Patrols can be increased and sensor technologies deployed because anything is cheaper than some dopey obstruction and likely at lease as effective. The wall is not something for security, it's a Great Pyramid, a physical monument Trump will point to for his ego's sake.
"Streamlining"? Does that mean things like shutting down borders and permitting fewer to avail themselves of the lawful process? We have about 300 immigration judges when we should probably have ten times that much. We'll spend a hundred million for 5800 troops serving no useful purpose and not one cent to improve the backlog in a real and significant way.
So easy that tons of people are arrested attempting it every year.
We joke about the "wall" because his concept of the "wall" is stupid. Billions have been spent on border security by congresses and presidential administrations of both parties. If you really wanted to do something about illegal immigration you would create an easy guest worker program and punish the ever living daylights out of people who hire illegals.
Build the wall is just a simple minded non-solution to a very complex problem.
Dude if we did that then how could you call it a crisis and try to score political points?

The paramount of the first paragraph is about the wall being about Trump... like I said.
