“A completely conventional double hurricane fence, topped with barbed wire, an anti-vehicular ditch and a couple rolls of concertina wire out front, with a patrol road between the two fences and sensor towers every so often would be way cheaper and (properly manned and maintained) 99% effective”

Yep. Tell a old, former, East German border guard that fences can’t be made effective. I’ll bet he will tell you otherwise.

Those had watch stations with machine gun wielding guards, with orders to shoot to kill.

But the libs would cry it evil if we had snipers and heavy machine guns like the Eastern side of the Berlin Wall did. Yesterday, it seemed like the libs were communists. Today, they sound like something even funnier: the rejects of the Communists.
