15 Miles of Additional Border Wall Completed in California
Breitbart ^ | 3 May 2020 | BOB PRICE

Posted on 05/03/2020 1:55:59 PM PDT by BeauBo

Contractors completed 15 miles of a new border wall system in the El Centro Sector of Southern California, Border Patrol Chief Rodney Scott announced. Border Patrol agents who work in the sector told Breitbart Texas previously completed sectors reduced crime in the area and made it safer to patrol...

“Assaults on Border Patrol agents in the area have dropped 65 percent since Trump built it,” Matzke concluded. “Illegal entries in the area are down 75 percent since Trump built it.”

The new border wall system previously completed in Calexico, California, was the first section of replacement wall to be completed, El Centro Sector Assistant Chief Patrol Agent Joshua C. Devack said in a video presentation in October 2019 and reported by Breitbart Texas.

“Since the border wall system was completed in this area, local business and commerce is thriving and areas once considered dangerous are now secure,” Devack stated. “In addition, overall crime in this area has been significantly reduced thus making our community a safer place to live and work.”

Closing the breach:

See how the California Border is changing. California shares 137 miles of border with Mexico. Just this one project is over 10% of the total, and several projects are already underway. We are well on the way to sealing off all the flat stretches of that border Where the urban areas and roads are found). The new awards will be increasingly biting into the tougher mountainous segments.

I will be happy when they’re announcing the last 15 miles to be built. And rules of engagement that say shoot anybody that climbs over it.

“I will be happy when they’re announcing the last 15 miles to be built.”

In California, the last 15 miles is going to be some difficult mountain terrain. Some of that might never make the price cut (potentially over $100 million per mile, with vehicle access road).

Construction is going great now though, and still speeding up. The effects of having all the border cities protected with strong barrier, will really start showing next year, but already is in a few of the earlier locations, like San Diego and Calexico.

Laser beams for the ones who climb the barrier. Aim for their hands.

It should lean 10 degrees to the south. Ever try to climb a fence leaning towards you? No top rail either to toss a rope across.
