The question about “the wall” is at the center of the government shutdown. Immigration experts actually agree that there would be more than one type of “wall”. The Daily Caller reports:
Border Patrol agents know exactly what they want in a border wall, and every mile varies.
Immigration experts tell The Daily Caller that President Donald Trump’s vision for a border barrier is informed directly by the requests of Border Patrol agents.
Trump tweeted one day before the partial government shutdown that he was looking into building a “steel slat barrier” that is “totally effective.” The tweet sparked endless media stories and mockery about how Trump was backing down on his campaign promise of a concrete border wall.
“Whatever you want to call it, it’s all the same,” Trump also said, seemingly softening his stance on the “wall” amid efforts to make a deal with Democrats.
Flexibility is key in securing the Southern border – different types of walls would best work on different sections of the border. The key is to make sure that no sections are left without securing.
The just do the land mines that’s all that’s needed anyway, first two or three laying on the field in several pieces they won’t be anymore problems, you couldn’t make a wetback take the chance, just three suits a small price.
As per Lindsey Graham told the POTUS, by all means do not give in to the libtards. Hold your ground & sooner or later the American people will see that the libtards are to blame & the libtards will lose thousands of supporters. They will do anything to keep President Trump for getting any good deals done. They care about more money going to countries that hate us rather than protect US borders. And oh yeah, they are control & power hungry freaks!!!!
These so called representatives of the people when they took office sworn to uphold, defend and protect the Constitution. Now it’s a matter of power and making sure that they get re-elected, we have them in both parties but more so on the left. As far as the wall on our border goes, it has been proven that it works.
The Berlin wall was effective because the East Germans were told to shoot anyone
trying to escape. We cannot do that. A solid concrete wall is no good because you
cannot see what is on the other side, so the steel slates is more logical, this is also
with sensors, barbed wire and cameras, drones and armed guards to respond to
any attempt, Pelosi and Schumer both wanted a wall but of course that was when
a democrats was in the White house and they were in the majority and that meant
they were NOT GOING TO DO ANYTHING. Only President Trump is willing to take
the heat to PROTECT THE AMERICAN PEOPLE. The democrats are all talk and no
action to protect AMERICANS only illegals which is why the DEMOCRATS are to
blame for the shutdown. Another President once famously said
“THE BUCK STOPS HERE”, the democrats always passed the buck because they
are cowards but President TRUMP stands up for America and acts as a President
would to protect this country, the democrats sell this country out for VOTES.
That is the difference between a President and a bunch of cowards that are
unamerican and cowardly.
Increasing I’ve considered a barrier through which you can see – in order to see what is going on on the other side – the preferred ‘wall’. If some intruder tries to use a long latter you can them approaching. Tunneling will be another problem, but for that sensors are necessary,. Regardless, a significant barrier is necessary to create an obstacle and prevent illegal shmuts just walking in. I’m all for using ‘live rounds’, building one of those medieval assault catapults and then hurling Chuck Schumer, Nancy Pelosi, Robert Mueller and Maxine Waters into Mexico.
THE NEXT BIG OBSTACLE THE COMMUNISTS WILL THROW AT US IS EMINENT DOMAIN. NO PROBLEM JUST BUILD THAT GIANT WALL ON BOTH SIDES OF THE HOUSE AND WATCH 15,000 INVADERS RUN THRU THE LIVING ROOM . KEEP THAT FRIDGE STOCKED. NO MS13 ALLOWED. SPIRIT OF AMERICA PARTY RADIO SHOW.ON YOU TUBE
Abu Tom, that is a great idea.I love your suggestion.
I think that should follow the model of THE GRREAT WALL OF CHINA. IT STILL ATAND ALTHOUGH DAMAGED. PROVIDED LIVIN QUARTERS FOR SOLDIERS INSIDE THE WALLA AND COULD DRIVE ACROSS THE TOP A MASTER[EE/
Ask Obama,he has a wall around his house
Obama was/is a coward, he’s busy giving orders to deep state and muller as he deconstructs the Republic, being a communist democrat is hard work.
Let’s economize, and take a lesson from the East Germans, who were so successful at keeping their people locked IN. To keep invaders OUT of the US…….Two massive barriers of razor wire…….about twenty feet high. One row at the border line, the second about 30 yards behind the first. Between the rows…….a minefield with warning signs ( in Spanish, English and cartoons style for illiterates) Every 200 yards, a manned pillbox with machine gun. Sound and motion sensors, etc. Lights illuminating the entire border after sunset.
Those that seek entry into the US illegally are invaders, and should be treated as such. Those seeking asylum can do so thru an authorized port of entry.
And the number and length of lawsuits that would result from the Dems until ultimately decided by SCOTUS would ensure not one foot would be built — at least in our lifetime.
K Martin,
Not everyone knows, but I have heard that some of the wall is being built anyway right now using money found in other programs.
