Falls kill...

Better one in the hospital than 200 running amok while smuggling in who knows what..

Falling at a rate of 32 feet per second per second, the learning about falling off the wall was limited to about one second

should have just tossed him back over the wall.

Should bill Mexico for his medical care.

Not very sporting using “baited traps.”

“what about that video that was being pushed a while back by the mainstream media in which someone apparently had little problem scaling the wall?”

If it is the clip I’m thinking it was, that teenager was apprehended within minutes - the detect/delay/respond calculus of the “Wall System” worked as designed. The great bulk of the people who would normally have crossed in that area, were simply deterred from even trying anymore.

We could make it a distance shot, say 300 yards with iron sights? A CBP recruiting ad?

[Stanwood_Dave]

The iron sights will make it fair!

[Stanwood_Dave]

Is that what they call “eye candy.”
