Childishness between Berlin_Freeper and Dragnet2 |

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.

Thinking for another 5 minutes, I think I could do it myself by starting with a very light leading-line with a weight on it, and a Senior Citizen grabber tool to grab the weight and pull it down the other side.
Did I miss something?
I’m curious why Trump thought the wall would always be hot — clearly it gets hot in the sun, but I imagine it gets cold at night.
I’m also curious how they got the ladder up to begin with; once you have a ladder hooked over the top of the wall, it clearly would be easy to climb.
It’s only 30 feet tall, so really you can get a 36-foot extension ladder and do the same thing. Which you can get for $500 bucks, delivered next day. Heck, you can get a 40-foot ladder delivered from Amazon for $550, it only weighs 80 pounds so one person could probably deploy it.
On the other hand, a 40-foot ladder is pretty easy to see, dropping 30 feet on the other side is not simple, and as we know from seige films, you can’t get a lot of people across if they have to climb up a ladder one at a time.
In the video, a couple made id before border patrol showed up and apprehended them, the rest fled, so it seems the wall worked.
True, and this wall was guarded. What they FAIL to mention in the article is that one dude DID make it over and was promptly swept up by Border Patrol.
I vote for concertina wire about 4 rows deep on the US side. So you can climb, how’s your long jump???
hahahaha he was running the wrong way... he was breaking INTO mexico... that’s why he wasn’t stopped...
hehehe
Super genius at work
Build a fifty foot deep, 1/4 mile wide moat in front of the wall, flooded with the Colorado River only 1/2 up (leaving 25 feet of airspace from the top of the water to the bottom of the wall), with consertina wire covering the shelf of land between the wall and the moat.
No wall can keep out every single determined individual.
The idea, obviously too complex for the media to understand, is to reduce the flood to a manageable trickle.
He was caught...that’s the real story.
And BTW I’m pro-Trump and pro-Wall. To make this wall more daunting, I reckon topping it with diagonal Mexico-facing strands of sharp stuff would help quite a bit.
Yes..he was caught.
Yes..he was caught.
Good idea. The wall can be modified for improvement.
I have 10 cent 7.62 x 54r round that can clear that up.
Options:
1. Find someone strong enough to get a rope ladder in place. Then, in the dark of night, go into drug cartel territory that is full of rattlesnakes. Risk a fatal fall by climbing the poorly secured rope ladder. Risk getting captured during the 15 minutes that it’ll take an unathletic or sickly person to complete the climb.
or
2. Go to the US Consulate and apply for a visa. Take an air-conditioned bus across the border at a legal entry point.
Were those 5 year olds and pregnant women right behind hi Didn’t think so
This is liberal sophistry
Designed to make us say walls don’t work.
the key takeaway is it was ONE DUDE, not 100 running across empty fields or farms.
Please explain how a rope ladder was used to accomplish penetration.
