MSNBC: Border Wall Even More Problematic Because Birds and Bats Might Not Be Able To Fly Over It-lol

Video...Comic relief.

Public service announcement: the border wall is even more problematic because animals and birds might be impacted. I wish I was kidding, but MSNBC ran a segment with biologist Jeff Corwin, where the latter said jaguars, the Mexican gray wolf, bats, and some birds might be impacted by the border wall’s construction.

“It would be an unprecedented environmental catastrophe,” said Corwin to host Craig Melvin.

Melvin began the segments discussing Rep. Raul Graijalva (D-AZ) and the Center for Biological Diversity’s lawsuit against the federal government over the border enforcement project. In California, the state legislature is considering punishing construction firms that participate in building the wall.

The concerns about animals being blocked by the wall are legitimate. Their migration routs are much older than the human species.

We should put up some windmills there to take care of that problem.

Yes...Guam.

The resulting tsunami would be stopped or abated by the wall....saving lots os American lives.....in red states.....which...maybe...is why whackjob environuts oppose it. That...and, of course, it will much hinder thousands and thousands of potential democrat voters from infecting those same red states.
This is war! By any means whatever!

What about roadrunners? They’re a flightless bird. Don’t think they’re endangered though. Lol

You know the left is truly worried about this when they’re dragging animals into the border discussion.

So... Progs say we can’t build a wall because Mexicans will just climb over or tunnel under a wall. BUT... Birds and Bats... They are unable to fly over a wall.

But the liberals don’t mind the thousands upon thousands of birds that are killed each year by the solar energy turbine windmills or the solar panel heat.

OK, so lets do away with walls and just put huge turbine blades spinning across the border, liberals have absolutely no problem with birds of all types and bats being chewed up by wind turbines............so they should be just fine with illegal border crossers being chewed to shit. ;^ )

Interesting that the greenies would use birds in the environment to stop the wall but think birds flying into wind turbines or getting fried on solar cells is OK. Selective outrage again.

Mexicans and their Mexican-American Bund are reaching.
They trash any spot where they stop to rest. We should fire up the Minutemen again and run them the hell out now. This lawsuit is enough to make a crow bliush. Concern for the environment.
GTHOOMC!

We all know birds and bats do not inhabit island for fear of them tipping over. 8>)

So maybe the wall is going to be really really tall. He did say he was going to build a big beautiful wall. 8>)
