Where there's a wall, there's a way.

Memo to America-haters: People are trying to get in. And I don't think "The grass is always greener" really applies in this case. Take stock of your opinions and attitudes.

Ping!

Note that we’re hearing about all the ways to ‘breach’ the fence that the BP agents have seen. Think about that...they know where the illegals are coming over or around, and the agents are there waiting for them.

Sounds to me like an idea I gave my Congress-critter last year; and it sounds like it’s working.

For those of us with military experience, it’s called shaping the battlefield.

torches, hacksaws, ladders and even bungee cords

It's amazing what people will do to get out of Mexico

Correct. About one pound of C4 explosive and 5,000 little steel ball bearings. Very cool! We used them to great effect in Vietnam. Ofttimes the VC/NVA infiltrators would try to turn them to face OUR lines, then start attacking to get us to fire them. Ugly. Until we started setting hand grenades under them with pressure-release fuses on them. Put a QUICK stop to that practice!

AMEN BROTHER! How much can I contribute to your Presidential Campaign? :@}

This is the fence that is being curcumvented. Taxpayers get screwed again!

Supervisory Border Patrol agent Victor Guzman points to an apparent cut mark on the border fence west of Columbus, N.M.

A widening gap between posts, each set a few inches apart, as the ground settles, is seen in the border fence near Columbus, N.M.

If they repair the same sections daily as the article said, why don’t they just post someone there and catch the perps?
