Hundreds of companies have submitted bids to the federal government to build the highly contentious, divisive southern border wall, but Rod Hadrian is just one of the few willing to talk about it.
“We could put the wall up, probably a mile of it, probably in three weeks,” Hadrian says.
The wall is a proposal so controversial that the anger over it directed at politicians is also being felt by potential builders. Activists have been caught on video gathering outside one San Diego contracting firm, R.E. Staite Engineering, who would not return requests for comment. Neither would several other San Diego bidders with offices within a short distance of the Mexico border.
...
The San Diego home he’s building is made out of the same material he wants to use for the wall.
“This is a sample,” Hadrian says. “It’s 30 feet high and 20 feet across.”
Dubbed “tridipanels,” the walls start with a special foam that’s covered with wire mesh, then reinforced with rebar. The foam can be replaced with rebar, and then the walls are blasted with a thick coat of concrete.

Probably comes kind of natural for him.

Now THAT is funny!!!!!! Good on you to pick up on that!
My real question......When will all of these violent groups be declared to be domestic terrorists.......and how can they be controlled if state governors will not control them?
Is this an editorial or what passes in the liberal media for a "news" report?
It is unfortunate but probably that will only occur after the second or third victim dies at their hands.
And even at that anything muzz will still be exempt.

A couple of those designs are pretty snappy!
“See B S”
Any company or individual threatened or blackballed by the state of California for engaging in legal business activity with the federal government should just sue the hell out of the state in federal court.
It would be like winning the lottery.
Once you got past the ninth circuit court!
When the President has enough of it and starts in tweets and in pressers to call them domestic terrorists, then it will go that direction.
Can you see all the bullet holes in the concrete plus the graffiti after about 6 months. Contractors have to create a design which cosmetically can be easily maintained. Sea shells and pretty paint won’t cut it.
Nice catch.

From the article:
“We could put the wall up, probably a mile of it, probably in three weeks,”
the border between the US and Mexico is about 1,954 miles long
And between Mexico and Texas is 1000 of that 1,954
So using a —quick— calculation, we need —about— ten contractors at 3 weeks per mile, to finish it in a year.
Better calculation:
1954 mi * 3 wks/mi * 1 year/52 wks * 112 contractors = 1
Need 112 contracting businesses along that 1954 miles, at a rate of 3 weeks per mile, to finish in 1 year.
I hope we get to have turrets in our wall like Hadrian’s Wall had!
Turrets rock!!
To the supreme court which Trump is building now.
I hope to have turrets on our wall like The Abrams has.
but Rod Hadrian is just one of the few willing to talk about it. “We could put the wall up, probably a mile of it, probably in three weeks,” Hadrian says.
Decades have gone by with the politicians promising but never delivering.
A guy named Hadrian builds walls......that’s great.
