Suggest a Border “watch” group, with oversight from border patrol to be deputized to do so and deter unlawful entry via rubber bullets, etc. The “people” could volunteer time and shifts to watch sections known to be infiltrated due to understaffed agents. Maybe even lethal force would be used as it is in other countries to deter unlawful entry. We also need to bomb existing tunnels to keep the cartel having to create more. Tunnel bombs are quicker to implement than the time it takes to build more tunnels, thus eventually bombed tunnels would be ahead of building new one.

I support the idea of border volunteers, but it’s important to ensure they work under clear rules to maintain order and accountability. Volunteers should be able to assist with monitoring, reporting, and providing support to border patrol, but using force should be left to trained law enforcement. By establishing a federally-backed program that allows volunteers to work alongside agents, we can enhance border security without creating unnecessary risks. This approach balances security with maintaining law and order at the border.
I agree with you partially. There is no reason that things like paint ball guns, rubber bullets or beebees couldn’t be used. They are all deterants and non-lethal. Yes, there should be oversight. The lethal methods used by other countries, is bad at first and sends a permenant message.

Those are great ideas! When replying, I honestly didn’t think of (or remember) those options.
