Mexico Has Plan to Counter Trump’s Wall [semi-satire]
Semi-News/Semi-Satire ^ | 26 Feb 2017 | John Semmens

Angry that US President Trump has deviated from twenty years of “benign neglect” in response to illegal immigration, the Mexican government bragged that it has “an inexpensive countermeasure that will completely neutralize Mr. Trump’s highly touted wall.”

Foreign Minister Luis Videgaray maintained that “simple economics will defeat all of his attempts to stop our people from reclaiming what is rightfully ours. There is no way Mr. Trump can neutralize the prosperity in America that gives virtually every Mexican the incentive to go to America. As long as my country can continue policies that assure the wealth gap will remain, the flow northward will be unending.”

“On a tactical level, a wall is an insufficient barrier,” Videgaray continued. “We will build ladders and catapults to carry people and drugs over it. These will cost us little compared to what the Americans will pay to build the thing. The billions they spend will be in vain.”

If the Mexicans hate Americans and America so much, why don’t they build the wall?

I heard George Lopez say he doesn’t mind the wall being built as long as it doesn’t disturb all the tunnels.........You gotta admit, that’s pretty funny.

[Catapults to carry people and drugs over it...]

Catapulting wouldn’t ‘carry’ people over the wall it would throw them over.

Border agents could have some fun days, it would be something like skeet shooting.

Here’s what I think their strategy will be: they will shoot RPGs at the Wall, then come along and offer to fix the dent for us.

I’ve said that for years. Adopt Mexico’s immigration laws as out own. Problem solved and opposition silenced. Also, I don’t hear enough about their wall on their Southern border.
