Perps must be brought to justice. This stuff has got to stop. Now.
No wall. Big wide moat. With crocodiles.
There was just a posting in here the other day about the BP being upset that so many Obama appointees were still in high places in the Border Patrol. No swamp draining there either.
We need the WALL, we need it NOW.
BTW, if the WALL was not a great idea... ...the Dems/liberals/progressives/socialists would not oppose it with such strident, desperate, vitriol.
It should be Standard procedure after incidents like this to totally shut down the mexican/american border crossing for a few days. Economical incentive for Mexican officials to take notice and develop resources to deal with cross border violence.
Preach it, Mr. President!
Amen!
Fast and Furious still killing Americans?
Build it higher and build it longer Mr. President!
Why is there so little information about what has happened? There are reports of impending terror attacks in the US—who was coming over the border that day?
Border Wall Prototypes will be ready to begin testing (concrete cured to spec) on Monday, 27 November.
Testing is expected to take 30-60 days.
Once test results are evaluated to certify designs/vendors, the first task orders can be released for bidding.
I guess construction starts in April or May.
If it was urgent, they could give the vendors tasks to review while testing is underway, and get bids a week after the testing is done, to start work in February - but delays (like losing vendors protesting) might be more likely. So plus or minus three months.
Next fiscal year’s budget is the long pole in the tent, to get a significant wall built. $10 Billion then, and we would be off to the races.
Border Patrol are authorized to use deadly force when their lives are threatened, aren’t they? I just want to make sure they can protect themselves.
