A man was found severely injured by Border Patrol agents after he fell from the international border wall behind the Gran Plaza Outlet Mall in Calexico Sunday evening... the man fell from the 30-foot border wall while he attempted to illegally enter the United States... suffered bilateral femur fractures to both legs and a possible back injury. The man was airlifted to a medical center in Palm Springs.

I guess this guy was too stupid to walk around the open end as shown in the picture. Probably hey amigo hold my cerveza and watch this moment

I can just hear the liberals now. The liberals will blame Trump, and talk of how dangerous border walls are.

They'll demand that safety nets be installed at the bottom of every wall - if not ladders to protect the illegals breaching the barriers.

should be 40 feet high. just toss him back over, and let the Mexican government take care of him, not the US taxpayer.

"he attempted to illegally enter the United States"

ALL RIGHT..!! We got one..! That's a start...

Couple of questions:

1. How did Paco make it up the 30-foot wall on the Mexico side?
2. Once on top, how the hell did he expect to make it down? Or was this just a not-very-well-thought-out plan?

"Should line the top few feet and top edge with broken glass. Make this impossible. And since someone will get over, make the first 50 feet a free fire zone. Shoot to kill. Seriously, we and they need to take our border seriously."

I totally agree... If we don't start defending our country, we're going to lose it...and soon. And that means against domestic enemies as well..!

"He should have been airlifted to Mexico, their responsibility for not enforcing their side of the border, bill the bastards!"

Isn't medical care free in Mexico..? I mean, it's one of those "Utopian" governments the left wants so badly for us to have, right? /s

WHO WRITES THIS SH*T?

Fake Americans?

Tough way to get US Citizenship.

They need to lean the wall 5 degrees towards Mexico. Impossible to climb.

[Carriage Hill]

That’ll work.

[Mr. Mohasky]

That’s exactly what I was thinking.

A rope and a drone makes it a lot easier to scale that wall design. Warp a slip knot, have a drone bring the other end over the top, do the same with another rope opposite side and you will be able to scale the wall.

Winning! By the way, do you see how the sentence is written? It is written to blame the border patrol agents, as if somehow they are to blame for this man’s fall.

I have no sympathy for him.

Should leave his bleached bones there as a warning to others.

More like dozens.

These days, I believe this is done on purpose. A lot of people only read the headlines and this makes it sound like BP injured a man. And the author’s Hispanic.
