The fence should be built where there is no river. Not that many people try to cross the river especially in
Brownsville. It is deeper and wider at the mouth of the Rio Grande river. Not many people try to swim it.

Think about it. With only 700 miles of fencing approved, the fence should be built where there is not a barrier already. It should be built where that scraggly bobwire fence is.

The Dept. Of Homeland wanted to place the fence where it isn’t necessarily needed.

The fellows that crossed the border where it is on the river are/were called “wet backs” for obvious reasons. Today that term is not PC and seldom used by the MSM.

A couple years back I flew from houston south over the rio grand and then over northern mexico on my way to hawaii.

Looking down from the airplane I could see millions of trail leading north all along the Rio Grande.

I’m sure everyone sees them. Its no great mystery what’s happening.

I was in the Del Rio area recently. The Rio Grande is so narrow there I could throw a rock across it. And anyone crossing has ideal cover in the thick growth of cane on the US side. If any place needs a fence, that does. Their big problem is going to be the homeowners whose houses line the banks. I don't know how they're going to accommodate them.
