Back to the Future: Arizona city seeks moat to secure Mexico border

By immigrationprof

Reuters reports that, although a border fence has been the focus of U.S.-Mexico border enforcement in recent months, Yuma, Arizona is looking to build a moat. Authorities in Yuma are thinking of going back to the days of the medieval castle and digging out a “security channel” on the border and filling it with water. Among others, Yuma County Sheriff Ralph Ogden is backing the project.

What will they think of next?
