[[ SANTA FE A legislative proposal introduced Monday would prohibit New Mexico from providing state land for the construction of the border wall sought by President Trump.]]
Unconstitutional- the wall is about NATIONAL SECURITY-
Another two words: “Border Zone”
Just build barrier along the rest of the border and funnel all the illegals and drug runners into New Mexico border. See how fast they change their mind.
Let’s give New Mexico to Mexico.
Then put the border wall around the former New Mexico.
Send in Federal troops to put down this rebellion.
It was good enough for George Washington, it is good enough for DJT.
Or Trump could just declare the land to be a National Monument. That one worked great for Bubba and Barry.
Fine.
Build a 60 foot-high wall around New Mexico, except for at the border with Mexico ... No doors.
Shut down and tear up all interstate (federal) highways into the shit hole that is NM ...
Likewise do to all rail tracks.
Remove all Federal ATC personnel from their airports.
Close the airspace over NM.
Close all Federal Prisons, and release all inmates into NM population.
Then send every illegal alien there - including all the criminals and terrorists.
Then place military installations in close proximity - with orders to annihilate anything or anyone that attempts to leave.
If New Mexico wants to be an independent country, we can arrange that.

Are they going to secede if they don’t get their way?

Or just build it around NM . Then tell Mexico they can have it for a bag of hockey pucks.
So how much extra would it cost to wrap it around NM?
As someone interested in wildlife conservation, there is validity to the argument. However, building part of the wall will only result in people being shuttled by the drug cartels to a different area for illegal crossing. This will actually endanger those who tried to block it. The best option is to build the wall in areas like this that allow wildlife to cross, but not illegals.
Then build the Wall north of New Mexico.
Cut ‘em loose.
I think New Mexico and California should do what they want. We will just build the wall around their states and require passports to come through any gate we might pit in for them
Well, it's a relief to know that someone is taking on the radicals in New Mexico.
Oh, now I get it: the radicals are now in charge of the land office.
That's not good news.
BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH
OK no land NO Money
