The Wall - Why it's a dumb idea

[bill718]

Fixed fortifications are monuments to the stupidity of man. Whatever can be built by man, can be destroyed by him.

General George Patton - 1942

Over 90% of the land boarding the Rio Grande is privately owned. The State or Federal Government cannot simply steal land from private owners and start building a wall. Legal cases involving eminent domain can be challenged in court, and many have gone on for years on appeal, going back to the days of GW Bush when he tried it. This will cost the Government a great deal in time and money for each case (and there are thousands of them) The Government won't win all these cases, leaving many large gap's in the wall that illegal immigrants can simply walk through. Then there are building permits, along with these will come challenges from city and county counsels over size limitations and zoning restrictions, all this in each city and county along the border before construction can begin (...and if you really think Mexico is going to pay for all this, I'll sell you the Brooklyn bridge - cheap!)

A faster, cheaper, and more effective plan, will be to increase funding for additional border patrol units and invest in more high tech surveillance equipment, rather than trying to use 9th century solution to a 21st century problem.

I don't imagine you own a house, but by chance is there a fence around your mother's place?

Youre right, walls dont work, but if you allow US citizens to shoot trespassers, soon the stinking bodies will be enough of a deterrent to stop future trespassers.

I enjoyed the video of the 8 year old girl scaling Trump's wall in seconds. Another good video is of flooding destroying Trump's wall. Other good videos include streams of hundreds of migrants easily scaling the wall. Other fun videos are people easily cutting through Trump's wall.

Ironic, considering your Trump movement's entire platform revolves around a hatred for most of this country

All horseshit, of course.

Your idea is totally assinigned. What's to stop some Dim president from simply repealling any funding targeted to additional border guards? What's to stop some Dim weasel from simply telling border patrol not to apprehend anyone illegally crossing the border?

Obama's pastor believes in a magical sky fairy so he's an idiot. And didn't you spend years saying Obama was a secret Muslim? Sounds like more of your retarded nonsense.

I think they removed the wall around the White House....oh wait, that was the Capitol building.

ROFL!

You must be joking.

We all know that Dims are the ones who hate America. Opening the border was the first time Biden proved he hates America.

Anyone who says walls don't work is a fucking moron. They work everywhere they have been tried.

Trump is right: Walls work on the southern border

Sure when you spend massive manpower securing an area and massacre people with gunfire when they approach a wall, the wall works. Of course, it was massacring people that actually worked, since the wall would never have stopped them.
