That’s the Rio Grande Valley, where elections are regularly stolen for Democrats and people vote in alphabetical order using the same pen and handwriting. I don’t obsess about building a wall - it can be double fencing like the Israelis use, crocodile pits, minefields - just so long as the illegals are stopped.
The few that they found are the entrenched smugglers that live in the area and their livelihood depends upon an open border ... the vast majority feel the exact opposite.
Headline should read:
Illegal Aliens and their unholy spawn say Trump’s wall not welcome.
OK, but don't think that doesn't undercut property rights arguments.
Solution to areas incompatible with continuous hard barrier construction.
Construct a two story concrete block house.
Climate controlled living/cooking/showers upstairs, 5 bay garage, shop and holding cells downstairs.
Construct a paved covered carport along the back (away from the border) with four ready ATVs equipped with a mounted M249.
All agents staffing the blockhouses are issued M4s and Glock 21s.
On the (flat) roof of the building have continuous observation and defensive positions around all sides.
A 30 foot tower on top of each blockhouse for HD, FLIR cameras and communications and cell antennas.
HD optical zoom cameras controlled and connected to PCs in the living quarters running motion detecting software.
FLIR cameras are likewise controlled and connected to displays on large screens for constant observation.
Have vibration and magnetic detection sensors distributed to the front and between each blockhouse that will alert the detection position in the controlling PCs.
Link all blockhouses with TSOA, TIGR or SUDA like data sharing so any single blockhouse outage will not affect the links with the other blockhouses across the border.
Construct one blockhouse every half mile in all areas incompatible with hard barrier construction along the border.
If a particular area becomes overwhelmed with too many crossing attempts, begin hard barrier construction between the blockhouses. Open areas are only allowed directly next to the blockhouse that can be closed with barrier gates.
Continue the hard barrier construction between the blockhouses until the problem area is under control.
This system will allow total control of the border as there will be no location further than 1/4 mile from a blockhouse.

I actually wouldn’t be surprised if a great many people along the border to object to a wall. If you looking at the voting pattern, at least in TX, it’s pretty blue. But it doesn’t matter if they want one or not. It’s what do we need to secure the border. If they don’t like it, they’re free to move, either north OR south of it.
Fine. Just build the wall a little bit NORTH of them.
“The geology of the river valley, fierce local resistance and the immense cost.”
They are not paying attention. This is Trump
I live 10 miles from the border and the Trump Wall is damn sure welcome!
If ever there was a legitimate justification for "eminent domain"...this is it.
Jose X is opposed to the wall. He is a businessman who feels it will damage his business as an uncertified pharmacologist.
This is PBS so those who they say are against the wall are probably illegals living in the US or Mexican-Americans who are more loyal to Mexico than the US. PBS lacks credibility.
As best I can tell the most popular illegal way to cross the Southern border is to rent an Id and walk across the bridge. Many thousands cross the bridge each morning rush-hour to go to work. A few thousand less cross the bridge again in afternoon rush hour. What happened to the rest?
Smart illegals laugh at the stupid who cross in the desert.
I don’t believe it.
PBS had to have looked pretty hard to find someone to say that.
This almost sounded real, until I got to the "local resistance" part.
I'm sure that the designers of the wall will be happy to leave gaps where the illegal dope smugglers and other criminals can be funneled through the properties of "local resisters."
