US Mexico Border Fence - photo: allamericanpatriots.com[/caption]Today in Fence history, Representative Peter T. King (Republican from New York) introduced the Secure Fence Act of 2006 with the goal of helping to secure America’s borders to decrease illegal entry, drug trafficking, and security threats by building 700 miles (1,100 km) of physical barriers along the Mexico-United States border.
The Bill passed the following day and was signed into law be President George W. Bush on October 14th of the same year.
American sentiment spans the spectrum between a kill-on-sight policy and those who feel the world should be border-less. We'd like to know how you feel.
