"Active Denial System"

Yep -- to avoid the trampling of women and children -- as the final "ZOT!" in a massive PsyOps build-up:

~~~~~~~~~

  1. Begin -- when "convoy" is ~20 miles from the border -- with leaflet drops and airborne loudspeakers pushing this warning [maybe with a "Ride of the Valkyries" music track]      '-)

    "You are not "migras". You are invaders!. You are not welcome in the Estados Unidos! NO Green Card. NO welfare. NO escuelas. NO trabajo. NO dinero. No voting. No one will cross the border alive! Turn back now -- and survive!"

    (That should discourage many of the tired, weak, and lightly-committed...)

  2. Intense overflights -- of everything including Apaches, Ospreys, A-10s. F-22s, B-1s & B-52s, etc., etc. -- right over our side of the border and just high enough to be seen from a few miles away. (That should make the timid and women with children start lagging back...)

  3. If in a safe area, unleash a massive firepower demonstration on our side of the border -- but near it -- when the vanguard is close enough to see clearly. [It will be heard for miles.] (Guaranteed they will stop -- to watch the show, if nothing else... women with children will probably turn back or turn aside...)

  4. If they resume approaching the border, when they get close enough to see the river, have F-16s -- followed by A-10s -- make cannon runs down the river -- and turn the river to a spray/mud wall -- right in front of them. (That should turn back all but the really bad actors...)

  5. If any of the machismo bad-#$$3$ still insist on continuing, let them wade nearly to our side of the Rio -- then make a Mach1++ run down our side of the river with a supersonic fighter.

  6. At the same instant the sonic boom hits -- ZOT!! Unleash the Active Denial System on the leaders. (A loud noise producing intense pain + Cowardice, ignorance and superstition will take control.)

One hopes all the psych buildup and early warnings will have the women and children so far back in the column that they won't be trampled by the stampeding "machismos" Cobardes...

(Of course, this would never happen -- and it could only be done in open country -- like much of the Texas Rio Grande border...)
