No. It would be sociopathic to think so.

I'm pretty sure nothing should be "fatally booby trapped", in the sense of traps intended to remain undetected until they are set off by targeted people. (And those not specifically targeted, but "wrong place wrong time".

Maybe the Border Patrol should be ordered to pin amnesty or asylum forms on the razor wire so that migrants can enter the country more easily.

Abbott’s immigration rhetoric criticized again after interview response about shooting migrants

Asked how far Texas could legally go to secure the border, Gov. Greg Abbott said the state isn’t shooting people who illegally cross the border because the Biden administration would charge officials with murder.

Oh good, because this subject needs more cannon fodder.

And BTW, we do not need "fatal booby traps" along the southern border as we have already managed to turn this into a condition where some are already losing their lives to not just crossing but what happens to them in camps and being moved about the US.

The whole thing is already treacherous, and the last thing we need is some asinine suggestion to adopt some North Korea / South Korea style DMZ model.

tbf, it's not hard to find people advocating for violence to be used at the border

iirc, I think some politician or another even suggested using the US military to strike Mexico

I remember it. It was the fat sweaty guy, if I recall correctly.

if you asked the Trump base it would be an alarming number of them that believe we should shoot migrants on sight

A vast majority of Republicans say they support installing deterrents such as razor wire and floating barriers in rivers to prevent immigrants from entering the countryillegally, even if people are endangered or killed, a new survey finds.

You really have no idea Trump supporters are fascists do you?

what do you know about undocumented immigrants? Have you ever met one?
 
No, although I'm sure Republican Texas Gov. Greg Abbott would have no problem killing these people vicariously.

After all, he is still busy busing them to northern cities that are in the grip of killer sub-zero temps.

Even when asked to pause for a temperature break, Abbott pressed on. For Greg Abbott, cruelty is the point.

Oh yes. Yes again. It should be widely publicized and cameras on the border should document when its tripped and it be published for all to see. I would go further and fake the alligators and killer coyotes eating people alive at the border along with fake booby trap encounters that are worthy of a movie. Make it to were most of the action is fake and only the occasional sniper shot or mine encounter would be real. It would published under the title which would be really offensive "Dumb Wetback Games." Make the most of whacking a few cartel coyotes and soldiers. That in combination with a very heavy military presence on the border will encourage going through the proper border crossing places.
