Forget Donald Trump's Great Wall.
The people who live in the bustling, fertile Rio Grande Valley, where the U.S. border meets the Gulf of Mexico, think a "virtual wall" of surveillance technology makes a lot more sense. It's already in wide use and expanding.

The left and the MSM (is that redundant?) think they can sell any proposition if it’s in print. It is fake news.
More fake news from the Homosexual Daily News.
“Buy them out via eminent domain and be done with it. It’s important for the safety and security of the nation. Sorry, but they need to see past the end of their nose and look at the larger picture.”
If you want to start a war with the very citizens who helped get Trump into office then proceed with your idea and give Mexico the river.
It works on the Korean Peninsula...no reason it wouldn't work here.
” We aren’t going to lose our country because some cow hick can’t drill a well like every other cattle rancher in Texas not near the border. Screw that.”
Wow! You really have no idea what your talking about. Your saying we give the Rio Grande to Mexico, i’m sorry but we won’t allow it. You going to kill us?
Closing off border access is not “giving” the Rio Grande to Mexico. Those ranchers who voted for Trump knew he was adamant about building the wall. Patriots have sacrificed their wealth for this country in the past. They wouldn’t even be doing that, they’d be paid fair value plus cost of relocation. But, hey, shoot ‘em up, cowboy, dern tootin’ they ain’t takin’ mah layund. Start a border skirmish, see how far that gets you.
What about the armadillos that need to cross?
So you think there’s water underground in that area just waiting for someone to drill a well, your stupider than I thought.
A virtual wall can be turned off at a moments notice without the public knowing. A physical wall would have to be torn down. Does anyone trust the government with a virtual wall?
“Start a border skirmish, see how far that gets you.”
Those who try to fence them out will be the ones who start it and they’re going to get a bunch of good people killed. To be honest I don’t understand why I’m discussing this, there will never be a wall on the Texas border.
Time will tell.
“Time will tell.”
Maybe but myself and thousands of others are betting the ranch that it won’t.
You don’t build a wall across the lake. You wall off the lake with controlled access points for legal access to the lake. Really simple.
