I love the way fluttershy is laying you can’t get that pose without some strain on the back.

The End wasn't The End - Found a new home after the great exodus of 2012

The Fluffiest

They still plasma cannon them to death in the open ocean. They have weapons more than strong enough to kill them that cauterize the wounds. You surround the breach with plasma cannon turrets and fry anything that comes through. Dead kaiju have been shown to work for passing through the rift, and it would not be hard to put two and two together when they can’t get through the rift by themselves to blow it up without a corpse but they see the corpses fall back through. EMPs also do not work underwater, before you hurble-burble about how leatherback could just fry the turrets as soon as it comes through. You could use even more violent methods of death and dismemberment if you simply quarantine that bit of the ocean floor so the blue doesn’t spread.

It’s been a little while since I’ve seen the movie, so I’ll concede that they knew the rough location of the rift for at least a few years at that point, for the sake of the argument.
 
That still leaves the problems of (1) hitting them with powerful-enough weapons, and (2) the ecological impact on the ocean chemistry.
 
Killing them with Jaegers on land, where the mess can be contained and controlled, is a better option. They always move towards concentrations of human settlement, so a defensive stance was viable, given that they couldn’t make a reliable offensive stance.

Uptight limpy scientist guy might have just figured out the frequency pattern recently but I’m pretty sure they knew where the breach was since the hayday of the jaeger program, based on Riley having presumably been part of the groups that tried to hit it directly when he says that historically when they tried, everything bounced off of it.
NounVerb

@Eeveeinheat  
Those super long-range shots require a surprising amount of travel time to hit.
 
Trying to regularly hit something at the bottom of the ocean when it could emerge at any time is not a reliable way to do things.
 
Keep in mind that they figured out exactly where the portal was, and the pattern of when they were coming through during the movie. This means that they didn’t have the information they needed to lock the area down, even if they might have been able to construct something like that at the bottom of the ocean in a way that would have worked better than the Wall plan.

Also, NATO standard ammunition was not created because it would cause someone to die slower. It was created to be a more humane version of the 5.56mm round that was already in use with the US military, as the earlier versions of the bullet used during Vietnam were likely to fragment and cause horrific internal wounds. This, along with the requirement of being able to punch through a steel helmet at 600 yards, led to the modern round that’s still in use – though the 5.56mm is notorious for yawing and fragmenting at long ranges once it hits something, despite this not being an intended goal.

Have to correct you a bit here. While a scout or transport chopper may have little to no armor, attack helicopters like the Apache are armored agains machine gun and small caliber cannon fire.

You do realize the ‘one shot doesn’t equal death’ doesn’t apply to a gaping hole in the chest cavity, right? Because there is no creature alive, or possible, that could withstand anything going Mach 10 (They have robots that run on nuclear power, so that doesn’t sound out of the question [real railguns already exceed Mach 7, after all]) into their chest without having their entire torso turning into viscera (killing them very quickly), at the very least. Because if swords can kill them, then a railgun bullet weighing a dozen pounds or so would decimate them.
 
So while everything you said is true, it does not refute or expand my point at all.

As long as you enjoy the “realism”, it’s okay.
 
But just as a warning, you don’t even know how people are killed. One shot doesn’t at all need to equal death. Heck, the standard NATO rounds were created specifically to not be lethal because a guy screaming his lungs out after the adrenaline wears off and with a nasty but patchable bleeding is much more of a nuisance to the enemy side than a dead guy who you strip of equipment and leave to rot.  
More often than not a person shot doesn’t even realize he’s been shot until someone points it out to him and that’s when the hell starts when most would probably hope killing worked as in video games or movies so they could escape the torture.
 
Another fun example is that of attack helicopters. These machines are designed with one thing in mind… to never ever show themselves to the enemy. They are so lightly armored they can be shot down by a stray bullet and the rules of engagement work around it. You see, an attack helicopter is an asset that is strictly used outside of visual range. Not even ArmA has you use those like the glorified precision artillery they are in reality.
