“In short, Norm, the attribution of apprehension reductions in San Diego to the double pedestrian fencing is a myth.”
Except the guy in charge of the fence said in numerous articles reported by media and blogs alike that isn’t a myth and is in fact highly effective. And he provided official numbers not taken from LaRaza supporting sites. All of which are searchable and available at a mouse click. And were shown to you some time ago.
So should America believe him and the actual Border Patrol agents that supported his statements or someone claiming he spreads myth? I think that also addresses the cred thing. If you want to continue denying reality and spreading misinformation, I can only hope people search the facts themselves and draw their own conclusions.
Indeed, Mr. Henry provided numbers, but they did not match the official numbers reported by the BP San Diego sector for whom he worked. Henry's numbers were substantially incorrect according to the published BP apprehension data. I detailed those numbers for you in post #849.

America should believe the Border Patrol officers who refute Henry's erroneous figures and claims. I cited those officers' statements for you also in post #849. This has nothing to do with me. The numbers are directly from BP. You can either refute them or you can't. It's pretty straightforward.
No analysis from you about the data and figures provided to you directly from Border Patrol. You're goin' with "the guy in charge said"?
It's no wonder that you are sadly ignorant about the effectiveness of border fencing, the terrain and property in South Texas, and the cost to taxpayers.
We need more than just a fence or a double fence. We need physical fence where it makes sense, more boots on the ground, and more technology to stop the flow of illegals over, under, and around the existing border fences.
