30 foot barrier is no joke - one slip and you could be killed. Word will get around about this in Mexico. It will likely be on TV and in the papers.

This is some of the new barrier that was installed this year.

There is actual surveillance video of the guy falling.

I can just hear the liberals now. The liberals will blame Trump, and talk of how dangerous border walls are.

Rather than talk about how dangerous it is to scale a wall in the first place, the liberals will spout off, and MSNBC anchors will cry, over how this accident couldn’t happen, if we didn’t have border walls in the first place.

Does Disney pick up the costs if people injure themselves trying to sneak into a theme park?

Toss him back over. Not our problem.

Or, charge Mexico for his emergency care, then send him back to Mexico.

Should have left him there for the vultures.

They should have medically lifted him back over the wall.

Should line the top few feet and top edge with broken glass. Make this impossible. And since someone will get over, make the first 50 feet a free fire zone. Shoot to kill. Seriously, we and they need to take our border seriously.

This was the first stretch of new barrier construction under the Trump Administration (Calexico, CA), and is still under construction. The see-through bollards allow for excellent surveillance and early warning, while their 30 foot height is a daunting passive deterrent. This new barrier is augmented with extensive patrol roads, lighting, cameras and more.

California made mantraps illegal. That’s why you dont see those broken bottle top walls anymore around scrapyards.

Will Mexico pick up the costs for someone trying to sneak into Mexico?

“Shoot to kill.”

That seems REALLY harsh.

The guy was injured.

I think “putting him out of his misery” is a more compassionate thing to say.
