What I find so sickeningly hypocritical about these leftists whining about ecological damage from the wall is that they don’t seem to care about the significant damage to the environment being done by the illegals coming through.

[familyop]

The wastelands of the West are a good place to keep foreigners.

[datura]

Seems like a bombing range would allow a secondary layer of boobytrapped Claymores and bouncing Betty’s.

[SaxxonWoods]

Awesome, keep blasting! The whining about destruction is fine too, the environmental assessments have been done and the commies already lost that argument. That’s why construction is happening.

[riverrunner]

I winters in Yuma and spend time in the mountains down there.

Your right just a bunch of rocks and sand

[Does so]

Trump’s Wall is keeping butterflies from migrating!

[AirForceVet1988]

Sad.

I love the desert. And I'm sure it holds lots of wildlife. Probably some endangered tortoises and vegetation as well. But a wall and some roads is minuscule in vast empty spaces like this. It might disrupt some of the antelope movement, but they'll get used to it.

“The construction has forever altered the centuries-old Camino del Diablo, or Devil’s Highway.”

Finally gonna keep the Devil out.

[DrGunsforHands]

The damage done to these regions by them is pretty bad too.

[lurk]

The writer used the adjective REMOTE to describe the sunbaked rock hills. Remote is another word for nobody goes there unless they’re researchers or illegals.

Do you know how many remote sunbaked rock hills there are in the western states?

[davius]

Unless they’re constructing it out of yak carcasses or whatever, the critters will be fine.

Marines & Navy have been bombing the $hit out of that area since I was stationed in Yuma back in the seventies. If the butterfly’s and pronghorns can survive decades of 500lbs bombs being dropped I do not think the wall is endangering them. Journalists are getting dumber everyday.

[Anti-Bubba182]

“in the Barry M. Goldwater Bombing Range east of Yuma, Arizona...”

That is a military base. Trump can build what he sees fit.

[plain talk]

It's been done before

[Grampa Dave]

Thanks for the update.

As noted the wall is our wall not trumps.

The enviro whackos are never concerned about the 24/7 damage done by illegals in those areas.

[Grampa Dave]

It’s not Trump’s Wall, it is Our Wall.

[Da Coyote]

Sorry, not giving a shi...an Obama.

The wildlife will figure it out even if progressives cannot.

Shove it.

[who_would_fardels_bear]

Quick! We also need to tear down all the solar farms that are desecrating deserts worldwide.

What’s the damage part?
