My idea on how to fix border security
This just came to me. It may not be perfect, but I think it's at least got the psychological factor down pat.
Run a fence with pressure sensors along the border. Every 2 miles, you place a tower. In this tower, you put 2 sniper and spotter teams, with sleeping quarters one floor down so they work in shifts. Each sniper is equipped with an M82 Barrett .50 cal sniper rifle. These towers will each be responsible for a mile each way.
When a border runner jumps the fence, and alarm sounds and the location is displayed on a screen. The spotter and sniper then locate the individual(s) and fire a round into the ground 50 feet ahead of them. This will be verified with a camera in the scope and the spotter's scope and instantly transmitted to a central control station.
The spotter then plays a recording with the following in spanish: [That was the first of five warning shots. Each shot will be 30 seconds apart and ten feet closer. Should you continue after that, you will be shot for trespassing on United States Sovereign territory. Turn back and return over the fence, and no more shots will be fired. The nearest point you can apply for legal entry into the United States of America is ___________________________].
