Hello? “virtually” means “almost”.
If the guy can be filmed, he can also be shot and/or arrested.
They’ll have to electrify it with solar energy.
I saw the footage. While it’s troubling, it’ll keep out all but the bravest/fittest and especially the pregnant squatemalans. So that might be good enough.
I still say we should have put up a wall like the one in Jurassic Park.
Is it easier to walk into a home that has no doors or a home with locked doors? Neither is impenetrable, but one takes far, FAR more effort and thought.
ULTRA-SHARP barb wire at the top would help stop the invaders.
No wall left unguarded is impenetrable.
Hello! And so what? The third of illegals who can't even qualify for a basic tourist visa are exactly the third which you most need to keep out.
And not everybody can be a wall climber. Maybe you need to top it with barbed wire or something a little more secure. Or have a drone which can mark the climber with a paintball or, as some would say, something a little more lethal.
And some prisoners escape from prison, but most don’t. Detractors of the border wall would eagerly point to the uncommon example of a man scaling the wall as evidence that the wall is ineffective. The wall doesn’t have to stop everyone to be effective. It’s designed to stop the vast majority of potential trespassers, but not all of them.
Technically, if he climbed over it, he did not penetrate it.
I mean, it doesn’t stop air traffic either.
One person trying to prove a point, is not the same as large groups of illegals doing the same, as in the large groups that used to march north to the border in numbers of 2,000 to 10,000 that were a constant in the media over the last 2 years.
Really? This utterly pathetic garbage is what you Never Trumpers are reduced to?
Gee a specially equipped and trained climber managed it. That is meaningless propaganda stunt. The point is to stop the coyote with his 50 illegals invaders or the drug smuggler with this 15 illegals alien drug mules weighted down with 75 lbs duffel bags
Electrify it, concertina razor wire on top, embed shards of broken glass, spikes, nails, razors to the surface....then, put a 50’ “kill zone” in front of it also lined with consertina wire. It’s time to quit pussy-footing around and time to mean business...,,the bleeding heart communist libs can all go rot in hell.
I’m curious why Trump thought the wall would always be hot — clearly it gets hot in the sun, but I imagine it gets cold at night.
I’m also curious how they got the ladder up to begin with; once you have a ladder hooked over the top of the wall, it clearly would be easy to climb.
It’s only 30 feet tall, so really you can get a 36-foot extension ladder and do the same thing. Which you can get for $500 bucks, delivered next day. Heck, you can get a 40-foot ladder delivered from Amazon for $550, it only weighs 80 pounds so one person could probably deploy it.
On the other hand, a 40-foot ladder is pretty easy to see, dropping 30 feet on the other side is not simple, and as we know from seige films, you can’t get a lot of people across if they have to climb up a ladder one at a time.
In the video, a couple made id before border patrol showed up and apprehended them, the rest fled, so it seems the wall worked.
hahahaha he was running the wrong way... he was breaking INTO mexico... that’s why he wasn’t stopped...
hehehe
Super genius at work
Build a fifty foot deep, 1/4 mile wide moat in front of the wall, flooded with the Colorado River only 1/2 up (leaving 25 feet of airspace from the top of the water to the bottom of the wall), with consertina wire covering the shelf of land between the wall and the moat.
No wall can keep out every single determined individual.
The idea, obviously too complex for the media to understand, is to reduce the flood to a manageable trickle.
Options:
1. Find someone strong enough to get a rope ladder in place. Then, in the dark of night, go into drug cartel territory that is full of rattlesnakes. Risk a fatal fall by climbing the poorly secured rope ladder. Risk getting captured during the 15 minutes that it’ll take an unathletic or sickly person to complete the climb.
or
2. Go to the US Consulate and apply for a visa. Take an air-conditioned bus across the border at a legal entry point.
