Instead of having a secure border line, where we enforce immigration law, and legitimately ask everyone to identify themselves, we have this giant zone extending well into the country where people are presumed to be crossing the border. If we simply physically controlled the line itself, this zone would not be necessary, and the conflict between enforcing immigration law and the fourth amendment would go away.
