Border

What good is a border fence if illegal immigrants can get to US through a tunnel. They can even bring supplies with them. or what is the use of deporting illegal immigrants if they can just come back via tunnels.

What good is it for stores to make laws against shoplifting if the perp just goes to another store? Same logic.
In a perfect world all a country would have to do is to say no trespassing and outsiders would stay out.
But that didn’t work so we had to put up a fence.
Unfortunately those trespassers discovered that they can dig under that fence.
So what would you suggest would be the next step? Instead of asking what good is it to do it this way, why don’t you think of a better solution?

Me and my friend were planning on visiting a friend at university, but I’ve heard that you can’t cross the border unless you have a full license. We both have passports and birth certificates (so identification isn’t a problem), but can we get through with only a G2?

Hello Bob,

Yes, you can! My husband and me have done it several times already with our G2 licenses.
Hope this helps!

I want to add the border to all the pages except the first page. But I have no way of doing this. Is there any way to skip the first page. What about any other pages?

Thanks.

You don’t say which version of Word, so if it is Word 2003:
File/Page Setup/Borders and Shading/Page Border/Choose box 9or whatver), Apply to: This section (or this section – All except first page).

I need to pick a problem that crosses a border between two countries, i need to find out what the cultural dilemma is, the social, political, and economic as well. Where is there a conflict between two bordering countries?

Research the Mexican/Guatamala border where Mexicans shoot first and ask questions later if someone tries to enter Mexico.

Are police on the border the same as border patrol? If not do they work together on the same cases & out of the same buildings? Would a border patrol officer outrank a local sheriff?

A CBP agent is employed and given jurisdiction under the Federal government. Their sole purpose is to monitor the border against people, drugs, goods, etc. entering (and exiting) the United States illegally. The police or sheriff are employed and given jurisdiction by the town/ city, county, or state, depending on which department they work for. Their purpose is to enforce the laws within the borders of the town/ city/ county/ or state.

Cost aside, because we know where there is a will there is a way, what if the souther border with Mexico was built up to a point where it was impenetrable and could keep out 100% of those attempting to infiltrate? Why hasn’t this been done? When will it be done? What are the possible negatives?

It wouldn’t and wont be a bad thing. The wall will be massive and expensive but worth every moments work and every penny spent. The wall will virtually eliminate illegal Mexican immigration, drug trafficking, reduce crime in border towns and outward, and decrease the surplus population of anchor babies. Who could say any of that is bad? Illegals, who want something, make that everything, for nothing.

I notice that 90% of border patrol officers at the border and at checkpoints are of Mexican ancestry. How come, do they hate Mexicans coming in? Is it for the money? Do they like arresting their cousins? Are they doing their jobs right?
LOL, and then how come you guys complains when someone uses Spanish, should we care if they understand.

DUH ! Maybe speaking spanish is a skill much in demand?

YOU THNK?

I’m putting up a three foot fence around my yard to keep people from letting their dogs poop on my lawn. I want to have it back a foot from the sidewalk and having some plants to border that. What will be pretty and uninviting to dogs? I hear that marigold repels deer so will it do the same for dogs? What other plants will repel them? I live in central Texas that has a hot and humid climate.

Wormwood is contemptible to most mammals, including dogs and cats. It also grows very well in Austin, but it can get up to two feet tall. I would try a dwarf variety like Powys castle.

Thorns don’t really deter dogs, but prickly pears release those horrible glochids and the pet owners would eventually get them on themselves if their dogs were to rub up against the prickly pears. It would be backhanded reminder to them to avoid your place when walking the dogs.

Need help on a homework issue…I wanted to know how the conflict between India/Pakistan over the Kashmir Border acts as an external shock to the asian economy.

well kashmir rightfully belongs to India. Pakistan is occupying it. Under the Mountbatten plan, along which India and Pakistan were partitioned, princely states were allowed to have their own say, and Hindu majority would go to India and Muslim majority would go to Pakistan. The sate of Jammu and Kashmir which was a princely state chose to remain independent after the partition. However Pakistan attacked it after independence.

Seeing no alternative as Kashmir couldnt defend itself against a larger Pakistan, and India refusing to get involved, Maharaja Hari Singh decided to hand over Kashmir to India. Indian forces then moved in and pushed back the Pakistani forces, which had conquered all of Kashmir except shrinagar airport. India had responded with the largest airlift of forces the world had ever seen
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hari_Singh

Thinking that it was an open and shut case, and that too many lives were being lost on both sides, the then PM of India, Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru, decided to take the matter to the UN
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Indian_Independence_Act_1947

well the UN took or rather is taking decades to resolve the issue, incompetent as it is, and now the whole geo politics of the world has changed. Today its not the territory that is important but the people living within it … so there is more concentration on what the Kashmiri people want. So from a territorial problem it has turned into a human problem

Most kashmiris (muslims) tierd of the long standing conflict want freedom from both India and Pakistan. But then there are the minorities, the Hindu kashmiri Pandits and the Buddhist people of ladakh say under no circumstances will they live under a non secular Muslim state if Kashmir gets independence from India, and would like to remain independent from such a state if it ever happens

If you take up a view that these are only minorities and their views are not important, then Kashmiri (muslims) are also a minority in the state of India and even their views are not important. So thats Kashmir for you

In any case the UN security council resolution no 47 on kashmir ( its non binding on either sides) stated (advised) that Pakistan withdraw completely from kashmir and that India take control of the region, maintaing a minimum troop presence and hold free and fair elections. But Pakistan refuses to withdraw and since its non binding ( and both sides want to keep the territory, as opposed to the kahmiri call for independence) neither sides is too keen on seeing it implemented
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_Nations_Security_Council_Resolution_47

although even if kashmir some how was resolved the fight would still continue because of Pakistans obsession with India. The mind of an average Pakistani surpasses logic and instead of concentrating on what they have and accepting their weakness, always dream about ruling or destroying all of India, when their own economy is in shams and the very existence of Pakistan into the 21 century is questionable

If you go on the streets of lahore or any major Pakistani cities, there are anti India rallies chanting the slogan " bhatat ki barbadi tak jung rahegi jung rahegi" i.e war will continue till the destruction of India. So Kashmair has nothing to do with it, its just that India is bordered by a fundamentalist terrorist state which finds lame excuses to make war.

You see it in Palestine, the very same conflict but exactly opp, where Palestenians and arab nations refuse to acknoledge Israels existence. well if Israel shouldnt exist so shouldnt Pakistan

India allowed the formation of Pakistan and still there is no peace. at independence the british left the treasury to India, and Pakistan was bankrupt. But Indian leaders decided to give a part of their treasury to pakistan to build good relations …still no peace, infact Pakistan used that money to fund insurgency in Kashmir right after independence. No amount of pacification is gonna buy peace.

Resolution: well the conflict will resolve itself, India is growing ever more powerful and influential on the world stage, and Pakistan cannot keep up economically or militarily. In all probability Pakistan will collapse just like the soviet Union couldnt keep up with the US, and will be divided into smaller nations.

I have two border collies and their exercise needs are very different! They both came from the same litter (I raised both as puppies) but one is a boy and the other is a girl. So far they are both 3 years old. The boy needs only around 30 minutes of exercise a day to be happy and calm while the girl can run for days on end before she gets tired! What’s the normal amount of exercise needed for the average border collie?

As much exercise as you can give them. Also, give them a job to do (herding, obedience, agility, SOMETHING). They are working dogs, and have that mindset whether or not you work them, but they should always want to do a job or help you in some way.

Mine is a service dog, so she is always alert and focused, which can take a lot out of her, but I take her on a run first thing in the morning, on a walk on my lunch at work, and to the park for ball on the way home from work.

She also relies heavily on routine, and if you break that routine, no amount of exercise will calm her down. If you can put both pups on a schedule and keep to it fairly closely, do so. They will be much happier for it.
