CNN requests KUSI for local view on the border, declines our reporter after finding out wall works

KUSI SAN DIEGO'S MORE LOCAL NEWS STATION ^ | January 10, 2019 | Mike McKinnon III

SAN DIEGO (KUSI) – Thursday morning, CNN called the KUSI Newsroom asking if one of our reporters could give them a local view of the debate surrounding the border wall and government shutdown.

We believe CNN declined a report from KUSI because we informed them that most Border Patrol Agents we have spoken to told us the barrier does in fact work.

We have continuously been told by Border Patrol Agents that the barrier along the Southern border helps prevent illegal entries, drugs, and weapons from entering the United States, and the numbers prove it.

KUSI News Thursday morning, @CNN called the KUSI Newsroom asking if a reporter could give them a local view of the debate surrounding the border wall and government shutdown. After we informed them about our past reports, they declined to hear from us.

CNN was looking for Fake News...

What the border wall fight is REALLY all about!

It’s distressing that we even have to address this argument. It’s very difficult to go through, over or under a well-designed wall. If it’s long enough, it’s also very difficult to go around it, and therefore to get past it by any means, other than permission. If it’s very difficult to get past, then much fewer people will get in without permission. Mission accomplished. Is that so hard to grasp?

Walls do NOT work !

That’s why we build them around prisons.

I heard Chris Plant on WMAL talk radio here in DC talking about this today. Seems Dan Plant from KUSI in San Diego is his brother.

CNN has some crazy sponsors. That’s for sure.

Any wall can be climbed or dug under if one has sufficient time and equipment. This does not mean a wall is not effective. They are very effective. Build the wall and monitor it with electronics and drones. When one trys to get over or under the wall send the border patrol to the area of attempted breach. This would take not a great number of border patrol agents. To defend the border without a wall takes tens of thousands of border patrol agents and many still get through.

How many prisoners have escaped over the walls of Leavenworth Prison? Damn few is the answer. I rest my case.

BUILD THE WALL!
