#4 Perhaps we need to create people of obvious color who are more pesticide resistant. We could do this by building giant dunes of pesticides along our southern border. Illegal immigrants that make it across the dunes will be fitter than average and the ones that don't die from chemical exposure will be more resistant to pesticides. Sure, it would work. It is the same mechanism we use to create antibiotic-resistant microbes.
