Virtual Fence Powered By Volunteers
A border watching group plans to get volunteers to watch the border from the comfort of their own computer.
"You're watching the border from a hotel in Tucson!" American Border Patrol president and founder Glenn Spencer told a handful of reporters in a room at the Marriott near downtown on Tuesday. "You could be in Omaha, you could be in Bangkok!" [...]
"Here's the thermal vision," he said, as the view changed to show what was hot and what was not, which illustrated that the system worked even at night.
"I just hope that the American people will put pressure on them to take a close look, a fresh look, and an honest look at this idea," Spencer said. He said that applications are screened, applicants are interviewed by phone, and that anyone suspicious would be checked by a security firm.
