Republican presidential candidate Herman Cain said Saturday that part of his immigration policy would be to build an electrified fence on the country’s border with Mexico that could kill people trying to enter the country illegally.

“It’s going to be 20 feet high. It’s going to have barbed wire on the top. It’s going to be electrified. And there’s going to be a sign on the other side saying, ‘It will kill you — Warning.’” At an earlier rally, on the campus of Tennessee Tech University in Cookeville, Tenn., he added that the sign would be written “in English and in Spanish.”

I have two quibbles. First, only the Mexican side of the fence should be electrified. Second, the official language of the United States is English. Our government should not be printing signs in Spanish.

You are now trying too hard Kranar...

And since it's a border fence between the United States and Mexico, your use of "our government" is incorrect.

The US does not have an official language.

I'm all for the Jurassic Park fence though.

I'm down with the electric fence so long as it is solar powered.

And the self implosion starts now.

The sign should obviously be 9% spanish.

[Gelston]

The sign should be in wingdings font.
