RE: Border Wall Bids Emerge;

in #newsleaks8 years ago

Serious question - can someone who thinks this wall is a good idea provide a reasonable reason why?

It's 2017. Ladders are a thing, even tall ones. Balloons. Tunnels. Ropes. Ultralight aircraft. Blimps. Parachutes. And at each end, there's a big body of water.

Sort:  

ask a person who lives near the border that question.

I live around 150 miles closer to the border than you do.

I don't know anyone who feels the way it would appear you do, including my friends in Austin. Want to try to explain it to me?

Seriously, instead of the hyperbole, I would sincerely appreciate a reasoned response why building a GREAT WALL (our president's words, not mine) is a good idea.

2200 years ago in China, with ground armies running around, I can at least understand the logic.

The wall is intended to deter and discourage anything short of a military incursion. If a military incursion occurs...we have the army.
