A mainstream Arizona newspaper is decrying the small section of the Arizona-Mexico border that has a 14-foot-high primary fence because it is too high for illegal immigrants to safely cross. The article, Border Fence Jumpers Breaking Bones, includes the claim that sections of the border with a 14-foot-high fence are as tall as a two or three-story house and tells the stories of several women who broke bones and were treated extensively to healthcare and surgeries at the expense of U.S. taxpayers. The writer never mentions any lives directly lost as a result of there notbeing a border fence in most sections, such as when Mexican nationals crossed into the U.S. and murdered father and husband Robert Rosas, a U.S. Border Patrol agent.

I'm thinking a paid program where local folks can "drive"
them buggers.. with the chompy jaws and maybe a grenade launcher
($350.00 deposit) and the gut-digging rear leg action included upon take-down..
It'd look kind of like HALO...
Halo is for milkdrinkers. Skyrim is where REAL men game. Of course being from Texas I suppose you gotta start somewhere ;)
After I left ORC, a couple years later, DARPA had a contest where the MIT types had to compete with autonomous vehicles self naving an off-road race course in the desert. I think the winner made it a mile or so. Eventually and probably in our lifetime that rent-a-terminator dog will probably happen.
Try it with beer and Iron Maiden.
Anything with Iron Maiden added makes one a virtual God amongst men.
I took they daughter unit to Maiden/Dio/Motorhead when she was 10. Changed her young life entirely. Metal chick henceforth.
Import fresh-water crocodiles from Australia and start populations thereof in the Rio Grande...
They like wild pig too!
Muchas Gracias, amigo. I will use bigger tires when I try it.
/S
I have often wondered how much electricity a solar panel could generate to electrify part of the fence?
Sounds like a song, anything you can do I can do better...something like that...
Hell, I am game. Let’s give it a whirl down there somewhere.
Then, popcorn for all
Norm and I have had that same conversation a few times.
‘ceptin’ he gets mad as a wet hen when I disrespect his San Diego triple fence.
Ain’t never seen him concede that boots on the ground might be an easier solution in some places.
It’s progress. I’ll take it.
Sniper towers placed at intervals are more economical and effective than mass deployment
My entire reason for being against the boots on the ground approach is simple.
Several times now, boots have been put on the ground in an act of theater. Evwey time boots will be put on the ground will be an act of theater. Those were made for more than walkin and watching. But thats all Democrats and gutless republicants will ever...EVER let them do. We have history to prove it repeatedly and believing that will change as long as a dem holds any position to stop or interfere with them is just not comporting with the facts ‘on the ground.’
It’s not, nor has it ever been a case og the theory being flawed. There is no question in my mind that unfettered troops/BP/ICE COULD and WOULD work sans fence. But it WON’T as long as Dems have any say whatsoever.
As for the SD fence, it does work. The only numbers showing it does not come from LaRaza and other hate America types. It MASSIVELY reduced illegals and diverted them where?
To the open unfenced desert where anyone can go as a tourist attraction and watch them cross with BP watching them, ordered to stand down by Democrats more often than not, depending on whats in the news cycle.
Nothing but wasted money. The tech ain’t there. Everyone I am awere if that got them here in my end of AZ that spends 5 figures to install them ends up replacing them fairly quickly as they lose efficiency fast and the dust in the desert REALLY screws with them production of energy wise.
The panels would me targets as well.
Edit would BE targets as well.
Thx. Did not know this.
My parents recently looked into it for their house. Fortunately they asked around. The sales guy painted a picture that was bull on it’s face about only cleaning them a couple times a year and lifetime guarentees.
If you leave a car outside most of the year, your windshield is dusty in a coupls DAYS. The more dust, the less efficiency as light cannot get to the panel. Then the AZ sun bakes them. Seems the ideal place for solar but it isn’t. They fail a LOT. The companies making them go bankrupt regularly so lifetime guarantees arent worth the paper they print them on many times.
If you have a couple to power a well or something, maybe. Relying on it solely is a huge gamble. Using it as an add on or those thinking about $$$ selling back to the grid are usually disappointed when the numbers are crunched.
I’m in!
Walls work, high un-climbable walls.
First we need a wall of “truth” built around the phony politicians that pretend they don’t get it because they are dedicated to bringing the USA into the bright rainbow, unicorns and balloons of their ideal scenario of The Third World.
Two classes they want, the Elites and those that serve the Elites.
Some of the levels in earlier iterations go better with Vodka and Nine Inch Nails.
