Building a wall would cut off access to the river and that would make the folk that rely on the river very unhappy. I suppose the river could be partially rerouted if necessary. But a wall is really only needed in heavily populates areas. Sensors and drones can keep an eye on the rural wilderness areas.

When you weight the needs of the entire nation against a bunch of cow pokes the results are not even close. Get real. The wall is symbolic as well as functional.

I think with proper engineering it is possible to build a wall and maintain access to the river water. I just don’t think it is necessary to wall off the entire Tex/Mex border. I am not expert so my opinion should carry no weight what so ever. But people that know security have said there is no reason to wall the entire US/Mexican border.

We have been fighters for southern heritage front here for a long time. Here is another reason I won't back Trump. Check out his position on the CBF.

The quote is from June 22, 2015....

I think they should put it in the museum and let it go," Trump said of the flag during an appearance at his new golf course in the Washington, D.C. suburbs. "Respect whatever it is you have to respect, because it was a point in time, and put it in a museum. But I would take it down. Yes."
