Glenn Spencer's Virtual Fence Powered By Volunteers

Virtual Fence Powered By Volunteers




A border watching group plans to get volunteers to watch the border from the comfort of their own computer.




"You're watching the border from a hotel in Tucson!" American Border Patrol president and founder Glenn Spencer told a handful of reporters in a room at the Marriott near downtown on Tuesday. "You could be in Omaha, you could be in Bangkok!" [...]




"Here's the thermal vision," he said, as the view changed to show what was hot and what was not, which illustrated that the system worked even at night.




"I just hope that the American people will put pressure on them to take a close look, a fresh look, and an honest look at this idea," Spencer said. He said that applications are screened, applicants are interviewed by phone, and that anyone suspicious would be checked by a security firm.

spencer is a true patriot

[flagwaver1969]

The political brass of the Border Patrol is totally corrupt. The citizenry's vigilance is what is needed to secure the border. The government and big business will never do it because they love using their illegal alien livestock and filling their pockets at the expense of the American citizenry.

Well hell yea. Look how much they spent on that piece of crap virtual fence.

Notice how the dickheads who forumlated this newscast tried to portray a completely sensible idea as POORLY as possible. I bet they screened about 50 guys before they chose that mongrel retard on Border Patrol who thinks that citizens trying to enforce the laws are a HINDRANCE, that by attempting to install the proper surveillance the government should've already had in place these ignorant racists are "taking our time away" over an intrusion which "may not be liable" enough to bother with.
