I’m hoping for a McDonalds drive thru window.

I'm sure you actually meant Taco Bell ...

The pickets should be hollow. Drill a series of holes in each slat interconnect all the slats. Pressurize the interior with natural gas. Set the whole thing on fire. 30 foot tall 1000 mile long fence of flaming steel. That is a barrier

“Do a search on duck duck go, Google, Bing, whatever. Type in us politicians who hold dual citizenship. Remember Ted Cruz held dual citizenship w/ Canada until he renounced his Canadian Citizenship. Former Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger holds dual Austrian/US Citizenship.”
The only “source” that come up on Israeli dual citizens in Congress are conspiracy blogs/sites and internet rumors. There is no original source for this. Zero. None. The cases of Arnold Schwarzenegger and Ted Cruz have concrete source information. Yours do not. Or are you simply trying to smear ethic Jews who may be eligible under the Law of Return to claim Israeli citizenship, but do not actually hold it, with guilt by association? Based on your posting history I say the latter.

You know nothing about me. I do not like injustice. I have jumped in when I witnessed hasidic Jewish men being discriminated against in NYC-Once by a Delta gate agent, and once by a NYC bus driver. Why were there no NY’ers standing up for these men, only a 100 lb Texas gal? I am not Anti-jewish. I am Anti-Zionist.

Anti_Zionism is not anti-Semitism.Those who try to cast those persons who do not like the Israeli Government’s policies and treatment of others as anti-Semitic have an agenda, and it’s not America First.

FWIW, when Germany was offering remuneration/compensation to those whose Jewish relatives had money/artwork seized by the Nazis, my family was one that could receive $$$. Didn’t care about it. Some of us have moved on to the present time.

The Bollard fence is not sturdy enough. Also, it will eventually rust. It would be very expensive to coat it or paint it and the job over the whole length would never be finished; by the time the end was reached, the first part would need painting again.

If you put any crosspieces horizontally, they'd be used to throw a grappling hook over. I think they need a solid wall, with heavily barred "windows" at intervals to let the Border Patrol take their peek. The "windows" should be barred in such a way as to preclude any hooks being anchored in them. The top of the wall should be crowned with razor sharp concertina wire, in case anyone managed to near the top. Automatic guns, like Israel has, should be mounted at intervals. The wall should extend at least 15 feet below the earth's service, and vibration detectors should be installed and monitored. Every other mile, there should be a small passageway to allow wildlife such as jaguars, lizards, and other non-flying animals to safely migrate, but not big enough for humans to get through. These wildlife openings should be remotely monitored.

Precisely!

Only electrify the top 1/4 of it to make it harder for them to steal the copper.. for that matter go ahead and make the top of it transmission line voltage and sell electricity generated in Texas to California, with a surcharge that can be used to fund the wall, electrical generation, and transmission costs... there, its paid for and keeps paying for itself...

If it’s transmission voltage it would be extremely hard to steal, it is much different than distribution voltages.. which is commonly stolen in Mexico by just throwing a wire over the distribution line in a neighborhood... do that to a transmission voltage line and it would be like a Zot from Heaven..

And if Mexico steals some, bill them for the line losses and they help pay for the wall and the power.. winning...
