Well, that’s a new twist on embedding broken beer bottles in mortar on top of the walls.

Everyone has a new way to skin the home security cat.

The woman, identified as “Veronica,” told the newspaper El Sol de Tijuana that the man had blue eyes, blonde hair, and didn’t speak Spanish well.

The Mexican equivalent of two white guys in MAGA hats?

If Mexicans need razor wire to keep Mexicans out, doesn't that show that we do, too?

A LIKELY story, uh-huh.

They are clever enough that they could steal your shoes while you are walking and you wouldn’t notice until you got home.

Mexicans steal everything. If you have two of something, they feel entitled to steal the “extra one” you have. A Texas First Grader learns that when stuff disappears from their desk or back pack. It’s one of the more valuable things they learn at school.

Is this supposed to be funny to the Huffington Post? They are writing this story simply to make fun of Trump. Meanwhile, people are being killed, children (in the hands of illegals) are getting sexually abused and trafficked, and drugs continue to pour over the border.

The border needs to be militarized. Then a concrete and steel wall should be built. Not a fence, barb wire, or steel grates - a 60-ft high concrete and steel barrier with armed gunships every 100 feet from each other.

Land mines on our side of the border would help.

It will help when we finally admit that messyco is out enemy and has been invading us for fifty years. It will help when we remove a treasonous Congress and get men .. MEN! .. with backbone who are determined to do their job.

When we had a maquilla plant in Juarez-ElPaso in the 90s, they would jump onto the back of the box truck and throw out the empty cardboard boxes that were being transported to the factory to package products in. Flat sheets of cardboard!

Otherwise known as “siding” in Juarez.

We can’t protect the border. And we can’t even protect the border barriers. Pathetic.

No wonder the Democrats want open borders and lax voter I.D. laws; Mexicans are redistributionists from birth.

Today’s so called democrats insist Americans must allow illegals storm in here by the hundreds of thousands despite their cost to us of billion$ in tax dollars,which is never enough. Tax money that should be going to our citizens for their sustenance,health,education,and housing even infastructure needs. But Americans must do the tax flagelation punushment because we’re the very rich United States and must divert those billion$ to fill the needs of those poor illegals plus give them the right to vote. Sustained by our tax money which our chuldren’s children if not aborted will be paying for.

What never gets mentioned in all of this is the lacking reciprocal treatment. If we applied that policy Because when an American citizen ever tries getting any of those handouts including voting when going to where the great undocumented come from That would never happen. Would this continue ?

Concertina wire is a decent enough conductor. Just add electricity.
