Joy Reid: Wall Won't Stop Drugs—'Traffickers Can Get on a Plane and Come'
NewsBusters ^ | Mark Finkelstein

Granted, it's early January. Even so, we have a strong candidate for 2019's most inane piece of political punditry.

On her MSNBC show Sunday morning, Joy Reid declared that a wall would not affect drug trafficking into the United States because:

"People who are drug traffickers can get on a plane and come."

Get the rest of the story and view the video here.

If we had pushed the border 15 mi south, Az would be on the sea.

You know who runs that land? The Tohono O’dham Indian nation.

They run a Corridor of smugglers from Puerto Penasco to Tucson, and we cant touch it.

It’s no joy to read anything from or about Joy Reid.

She’ll probably next be telling us that border walls don’t stop drugs coming into the country, because the drug sellers can throw them over the wall.

Wow, that is some incredible flying. Zero room for the slightest error...yet SO smooth. Wingtips must be just a few feet from the trees in a number of spots. Thanks for the link.

Yep, that’s the type of flying the drug lords want to buy.

Just how much dumber can one woman get?The wall as it will be built is not designed to stop people from flying over it or coming here by ship.Its designed to prevent people from climbing over it and or just walking across or border.

It’s a great physical as well as psychological deterant to people coming here.

As far as idiots carrying a 30+ foot extension ladder to climb over it.I can’t wait to see that.

Climbing takes time and if the fence slows these parasites down then it’s doing the job it was designed to do.

At least pregnant woman will no longer easily get throug anymore and dump a load at our expense.

If you want to put a deep dent into out drug use problem, you’ve got to go Full Duterte.

You know what Duterte would do to Joyless on live TeeVee?

Why are so many Americans willing to let the light of truth go out in the news industry?

The light has always been out.

We just didn't have Twitter to show us how many lying, double-digit IQ morons we had graduating from the jerbilism skools.

Hey how about if we build the wall first & then we can see whether or not it works. That’s what Pelosi did with healthcare, told us to shut up, we didn’t need to read the bill, instead the bill needed to be pass so we could find out what was in it. I think building the wall should be done the same way. Build it so we can see if it works or not, as it is the only way we will know for sure.

I fear that one trafficker could just pass drugs over or through a wall to another trafficker on the other side.

Also the risk of tunneling and mechanical means of launching drugs over the wall, but I think it will certainly slow things down and result in more getting caught.
