Easier way to lean the wall 10 degrees to the Mexican side. Ever thy to climb a wall leaning towards you?

anti-climbing feature

If that “feature” is not electricity, it will be breached.

Just like the Capitol police opened the doors and ushered in J6 protestors, Border Patrol has opened the door and let in illegals.

Despite the best efforts of Texas and our razor wire and floating barrels.

I guess. Excuses for a fence that can be cut is becoming routine.

I thought walls were racist and didn’t work

When did that change?

When governor Abbot made them shove their sanctuary city status where the sun don’t shine

how it responded to the Texas effort.

I've noticed that once the Texas governor told Biden to stuff it and continued to build border infrastructure the media has dropped the story.

Seems DHS has decided not to push the issue because it was poling so badly for the administration.

YOU LIE KOOKAFORNIA !!!!

From 2 months ago:

https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/us/texas-installs-anti-climb-fence-in-brownsville-area-of-border-to-stop-illegal-immigration/ar-AA1llN0p

Today in the Snewz:

“It’s an anti-climbing feature that’s meant to stop people from scaling the border wall,” Rios told the station. “It’s the first of its kind along the U.S.-Mexico border.”

“Psshh. Here in Texas we use cheap good ol’ efective razor wire.”
————-
We should add a Quad-.50 every mile or so along the border, with about 10,000 rounds of ammo and remote control firing. They won’t need to be used much beyond the first couple of days, just being there after that will do the job.

Good plan. But I have a question.

Is your set plan to deter the illegal immigrants trying to get in? Or deter the illegal federal agents disobeying state and federal laws by allowing illegal immigrants in?

I can’t find anything about Newsom in this story, but it’s possible he will mention it later. Maybe he is waiting to see how many invaders are killed or injured. If he decides to get on board, they could relate this to his Great Wall of China trip.

"We continue to see an increase in people that are falling from the border wall and seeking medical treatment," he said. "In this case, if they fall onto the Mexican side then we won't have an accounting for how dangerous this new feature might be."

Cue Seinfeld's "That's a shame." gif.
