FOOTAGE has emerged of a migrant brazenly climbing over Donald Trump's new of US-Mexico border wall.

It comes just weeks after the US president bragged his wall as “virtually impenetrable” during a trip to the exact same $150million stretch of the barrier in California.

The razor wire helps, but they just push it away from the fence with a stick.

If done right you need a Bangalore torpedo to remove the wire.

Also thousands of small cheap camera drones should cover the length of the wall. And rows of razor wire in strip of land south of the wall that belongs to the US.

They attached poles to the fence and hung razor wire on it, so they push it off of the poles with a stick or they cut it. It helps but they still get through.

We dont have any sensors on the fence in my AOR. We have senors in the ground but not on the fence.

The time it took for the man to rig and climb was time enough to get BP greeting party assembled on the other side. The single scaler got over and jumped the white barricade (and was faced with another catch-zone) but person two and three diddybopped out of the area as soon as the white BP truck rolled up. As opposed all three simply walking over, with no alert to the BP.

But, is this fake news? who on the Messico side filmed this and were they paid by the Sun to pull the stunt? What does the white lettering on the jacket of ladder-holder say? It took some strength for first guy to hand-over-hand slide down a single rope on the US side after climbing the ladder held tight by a third guy. And the second guy at the top unhooking the rope and ladder, and throwing it to the third guy, and then smoothly sliding down two uprights also took strength and know-how - not something an inexperienced person would try - they’d be stuck at the top with jello-legs expecting the BP to get them down.

Perhaps that needs to be addressed. If I had the power I’d have phalanx systems criss crossing for the entire length. But with mini-guns and not cannon.

I would have expected it to be four or five times that cost.

“...effective tomorrow anyone crossing border without first passing through immigration snd customs will be shot dead on site (sic).”

That works for me. Quit f’ing around and STOP it.

One at a time, slowly, at a single access point. Much easier to catch than a dozen or more running in every direction out in the open.

the visibility is great for the boarder patrol.
there are 3 rows of fences, with camera monitoring.
they need to increase border patrol force significantly.
they need to have this fence even in the most difficult terrain.
we got the money, the army corps of engineers, we can build it quickly.

I could never throw the rope ladder up and over the wall, but I wouldn't throw it: I'd pull it.

Think of those wonderful space-age carbon (cuben) fibers, ten times stronger than steel and 1/5 the weight. Get a very thin string of that 10 yards long, tie one end to the hook end (top) of the ladder, and the other end to a little bitty 5-lb kettlebell.

Throw that li'l kettlebell up over the wall (my USMC Captain son could do this, I betcha) and then grab it on the other side with your handy Senior Citizen grabber/reacher tool, and pull it downward.

(You're visualizing this, right?)

That pulls the rope ladder upward. Shouldn't be too awfully had to catch the hooks on the top of the wall. Then you're good to go.

Is the any reason that wouldn't work? I ask you.

Looks like they need to stop birds from landing on them. Simply add heavy spinners on top

Leave it to Berliin Freeper to post bull sh*t which attempts to discredit Trump.
Berlin Freeper either isn’t smart enough or simply evades the fact that the wall was meant to stop tens of millions of pregnant females, their children and most everyone else from willy nilly crossing the border. He isn’t savy enough to understand that there will always be daredevils or those willing to risk death and roll the dice while attempting to scale a killer wall of that height or attempt to risk it all make a political point.
You invented all that garbage because I simply posted this item from the British conservative tabloid, The Sun. LoL!

Btw crazy idiot drag (who has me living rent free in his head) it's spelled: savvy.

Unfortunately we can’t count on there being enough border patrol people monitoring the wall when Democrats come to power.

Never Trumpers are like blinkered horses.

Before the 2016 campaign I didn’t like Trump - not at all. Even during the nomination process, nope, didn’t like him. His policies were good, but as a person nope nope.

For the actual election there was no problem - he faced off against a vile Hellary, so there was no doubt who to vote for.

Since then, I still don’t like him AS A PERSON - I wouldn’t like to meet him in person. BUT, as President, he’s one of the best. He fulfilled his promises and more.

Even more, as a strongly pro-life person, to me, President Trump is the best President the US has had.

Keeping on harping at him is just petty I think

Fifteen or so years ago, I bought big “tuna cans” of ammo and imported the rifles (10$ a piece).
