The further north you would go the least effective, obviously. The rest of your post I covered by stating that inland isn't acceptable. Nor would it be effective. Right now a dozen Immigration officials on the boarder between checkpoints isn't near as effective as having them inland on main roads.
What's the alternative?

Not sure about the alternative but if we want to live in a free society its one of those things we have to deal with. We could virtually end most crime tomorrow if everyone was forced to put govt cameras in their homes and cars. We could end drunk driving (and illegals) by having these checkpoints at every intersection in every city. So again, where do you draw the line?
