What do you think of the Bollard Fence Design (steel slat picket-fence)
self ^ | 12/21/19 | self

Have you seen the design for the Bollard Fence Design (steel slat picket-fence) that DJT has been talking up this week ? What do you think of it ? How penetrable ?

The design features a see through capability, which has plusses and minuses. Steel like spikes crown each picket. Costs would be considerably less. Construction time minimized. Trump calls it beautiful. It certainly is more appealing than a concrete wall.

Your thoughts please

We not only need a wall we need a new branch of the millitary to man it.The border guard. One million men with tanks, fighters, robots, mines etc... seal the borders. We need a border guard—not a space force.

And, put rolls of razor wire on the ground on the USA side.

A minefield might be suitable.

Thanks caww,
Most of my good shots are on
This Stupid Phone and I email them out
Sometimes.
I have 2 videos on youtube;

CROSSING COUCH TRAIL

HOMELAND SECURITY PART 2

.
The first is my Favorite taken
in a very active crossing area.
It is legitimate in every way.

The second one was a Spoof and
created a Fire Storm in many
ways from Minutemen to SPLC.

Both are NightVision videos
Shot in the Same spot in
April 2008.

Totally challenged as far as engineering goes.

How does one throw a rope over a slat wall if there is no crossbar at the top? There is nothing for the rope to catch on. It would just fall between the slats wouldn’t it?

Wells so is this:

Can't show the picture because is is a Getty image.

SOURCE

There seem to be several varieties of the wall being built.

The image you provided did not seem to fit the description being described in the original article posted here. But your picture does indeed represent one of the kinds being built. None actually seem to be what I had hoped would be built, but they are far better than nothing. They all need some modern add-ons that alert border security for tampering attempts, for example.

Better is to see Israels border walls and styles of fencing.......

I mentioned Zuckerberg's property because he's such a huge supporter of wetbacks.And I'll admit that I completely forgot about Israel's wall(s) and you're right to suggest that *they* are the ones we should study regarding ours.

I’ll be pleased when I see some drug mule or coyote impaled on one of those spikes!

Is this the type of thing you had in mind?

The damage a fence can do!

Yes I agree with all of this but people still need to patrol & interdict or you end up saying like the last Roman commander at Hadrian’s Wall, “Where did all these Picts come from?”.

The last Han commander on the Great Wall was not available for comment because his head was stuck on a Nongol lance!

»I think that our Politicians should not be allowed dual citizenship. I know some hold dual Israeli American Citizenship. What other Countries do American Pol’s hold dual citizenship with?»
I call Antisemitic BS. Who exactly holds dual citizenship? Can you prove this assertion to be a fact with sources to back this up? Every time I ask for proof of this there’s crickets.

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.

Every other picket.

How about this: Odd pickets get electrified on odd days, even pickets get electrified on even days. Just for shits 'n giggles, every once in awhile we electrify it all. Just for the hell of it and just to keep the hispanics guessing.
