(We Build the Wall) clears private riverfront land to build border wall in South Texas
CW39 (Houston) ^ | NOVEMBER 15, 2019 | SANDRA SANCHEZ

We Build the Wall, boasted on social media Thursday that it has begun riverfront land clearing on banks of the the Rio Grande in Mission, Texas, to build a 3.5-mile border barrier on private property.

This is believed to be the first private wall construction in South Texas by this organization, which earlier this year built a section of wall near El Paso in Sunland Park, New Mexico.

The owner of the 6,000-acre riverfront property, Lance Neuhaus, confirmed to Border Report on Thursday that he has given the tax-exempt organization We Build the Wall permission to be on his property.

Cool - maybe they can use a column to install an electric aiming system and Uzi combo and name it after you - you’ve donated triple what I have to it.

It’s been a while since I donated to it - will have to go out and kick in a few more bucks.

Guess I am just old fashioned, OLD CORPS; I would prefer an automated M-60 with an unlimited belt of 7.62 ball rounds.

An Uzi is just to small, it doesn’t really say “hi there, really glad to meet’cha”.

Heck - it will be your column - seems like you should get the weapon(s) you want on it.....I just used “Uzi” because it was short and easy to spell....

President Trump ceded the Rio Grande river to Mexico

The president never heard of Goliad or San Jacinto

“I would prefer an automated M-60 with an unlimited belt of 7.62 ball rounds.”

That is easy to bring along, once the hard work of clearing the range, and installing a tall (shoot through) barrier to slow down the targets for easier engagement, is complete.

“President Trump ceded the Rio Grande river to Mexico”

No legal concessions have been made. Some border defensive measures (like roadblock inspections) are up to a hundred miles from the border.

Border Patrol Maritime Units continue to Patrol the River, and are being well resourced.

I ran the Rio Grande on Google earth. I thought the border was the middle of the river. When you look, in lots of places it’s hard to tell where the river is or was.

Somehow I learned of the controversy about a similar situation with Oklahoma and the Red River. There is considerable acreage made and lost by the meandering of the river. As I recall, there are (or were) some big legal battles of the new/lost acreage
