#1. Where do you think the wall-penetrators got their power saws in the first place, Home Depot?

Tool Review - Diablo Demo Demon 9" Carbide Sawzall Blades
You fell for anti-Trump fake news. No surprise here>

BFD he cut a 2x4 with a nail in it and some thin wall conduit.

If you want to impress me, someone who's had years of experience with sawzalls, never mind steel, try cutting more than a few inches through plaster, stucco, cement or even tree roots in just plain old dirt.

If you really want to sell me on the blade, cut the vise.

The video you watched was a year old. Post 37 shows the newer stronger metal cutting blades.

Fisher Sand & Gravel has had one son indicted on child porn charges, another on a financial scheme, while the third, Tommy Fisher, the current CEO is suspected of being complicit in the scheme.

Plus, the Fisher designed wall cannot be seen through, but is built high enough (32’) that the other side can be seen from the access road on its top.

Years ago I worked with a guy that spent most of his life in and out of prison. He was telling another guy one day why he never tried to break out. He said “it ain’t gonna do ya no good to go thru the wall, them thirty carbines just gonna wear your ass out anyway.”

So are they going to charge them with a crime or put them on welfare/s

Well, they'll do what they'll do before there was a wall.... nothing.

For sake of the discussion let’s stipulate all those accusations are true.

What does that have to do with a wall design that is far superior and far more durable than what is now being built?

Simple: the the government may not want to actually do business with a company which has questionable leadership, especially if the questions arise around financial matters - does not matter what the design might be. Can the Gov risky our money with a company with shady finances?

And they are not accusations in the case of two of the kids, but convictions. It is only the current CEO that could be shady - and, from the looks of him, I wouldn't trust him as far as I could throw his obviously fat ass.

They ARE filled with concrete AND more steel rebar. This is clearly fake news...

Dates of incursion, pictures of damage done, actual equipment used, blades employed, locations where there has been successful penetration, along with names of witnesses and perpetrators are required to give any credibility to this story. Where were the guards at THE SPECIFIC TIME?

Was there a payoff on both sides of the border to guards?

100 dollar reciprocating saw my ass!!!

We can do better than that.
Let’s make it hum during daylight and glow at night. The criminal illegal alien invaders will run like hell once they see another compadre get fried/vaporized.

Steel, concrete, whatever, it can be cut:

Abrasive saw
Plasma cutter
Oxy/acetylene torch
Air/arc gouging
Thermal lance

The latter is very simple and can melt through very thick steel, concrete and whatnot. Takes a bit of time but is used to cut very thick steel (feet). It requires a lot of oxygen but the rest is straightforward.

These pieces of a ship engine crankshaft were cut with oxygen/acetylene torches, back in the day.
