I don’t see a problem with it.

Too bad a similar fence can’t be built on the southern border.

Another great article from an overseas news source. It’s sad that if we want to get balanced news reporting we have to refer to the Europeans because we sure as hell know our media is in the back pocket of the Democratic Party.

Improve the wall:

Moat, mines, alligators.

Make shiny rims illegal on one side.

Obama will soon send armed officers of one of the alphabet agencies to break down that wall, and lift the travel ban the makers have enacted against the takers.

It’s not fair, after all!

What else can they do when one thing those have-nots don’t have — is civility.

Let’s pass a law to take all of these fences down, starting in DC!

Who wouldn’t want to keep crime out of their neighborhood?

This is the coming living environment in the US as it descends into a Third World country. Gated communities for the well-off while the poor scrounge for government benefits. Demography is destiny.

The horrors! The fence is hurting the poor folks! The wealthy should be setting up their guest rooms and invite them over with free run of the house and credit cards.

Good fences make good neighbors (when electrified).

The brick barrier, reading 'Road Ends', represents a significant divide between the two cities, which despite their proximity, differ greatly in terms of average salary, crime rates and general desirability.

Can't say as I blame them.

Not at all uncommon. Lots of Detroit neighborhoods have private security backing up police.

Great idea! We need more fences like that. Even better is if they’re manned with armed guards 24x7.

This is one of numerous fences that have been erected by the wealthy 'haves' of the Michigan suburb of Grosse Pointe Park to 'prevent 'have-nots' from Detroit from driving into the city'.

Took a Street View drive around the city limits. Only saw one such barrier, though I might have missed a couple.

I don't think that can be reasonably described as "numerous."

Also noticed that most of the houses in the city are quite modest, nothing at all like what they chose to put up as representative .

There are lots of places in my city where streets don't go through. Has nothing to do with haves and have-nots.

Might they also be trying to keep actual, non-metaphorical, roving stray dogs out?
