KTVK-TV -- Phoenix -- April 30, 2009 // Billions of dollars have been spent on the border fence, but some say we're not getting what we paid for. You hear so much talk about the border fence. The Department of Homeland Security said it's just about finished. 3 On Your Side wanted to know, what are we getting for our money and is it doing the job? "If we had 1,000 miles of this fence, in the crucial locations along the Mexican border, we will cut drug smuggling and illegal immigration down to a manageable size," said Glenn Spencer, American Border Patrol founder. Spencer is the founder of the watchdog group American Border Patrol. He lives near Sierra Vista and spends much of his time in the air flying the border to see how much fence is really being built. "Supposed to be a fence here, no fence," Spencer said. The Secure Fence Act of 2006 called for 700 miles of double reinforced fence to be built along to border from California to Texas. Costing an estimated $2.1 billion.

The best Border Patrol we have should be bilingual. Zat U Brother? Kool. We've been told that there is only 20 million illegals for 20 years. The world is tired of the USA and the corrupt govt. Theres a depression coming and the rich will never have to live on the streets with us. Our banks and other countries banks could lend 10 times more than they could back and they did. The world banks are broke. Better learn to speak Chinese not Spanish...

DCPatriot, LaRaza & other advocates for illegals are bringing destruction to the US Our generation is watching, silently, while our streets turn into war zones. Children raped & murdered. Bankrupting our hospitals. Bringing disease,pests that we'd once wiped out & live by undercutting wages for low skilled workers. Our schools are infested with children of illegals who drag down classes because they cannot speak English..They are a plague. We either eliminate them or they eliminate us
