Have you been down to the wall?
I mean, right there at the base?
I have.
In March 2021 I rode at the base of the wall from Mission TX up to Roma. That’s about 50 miles.
Then in late March 2021 I rode from 20 miles upriver of Presidio to 20 miles down river. That’s just west of Big Bend.
Then in early April 2021 I rode at the base of the wall from Columbus NM east 65 miles to the commercial crossing near El Paso.
Your right - the wall doesn’t completely stop them.
That’s not it’s purpose.
It’s to discourage most of them from trying and slow down the ones who do try to allow the BP to get there to deal with them.
It does a pretty good job at that.
An yeah, they can cut a chunk out of a bollard... which they have done... but it ain’t easy or they would have done more of it.
And an administration that wanted to could have crews on call to fix such a breach in fairly short order.
This administration doesn’t want to stop them, so they don’t fix the breaches.
Oh, and the looking through the wall? That was at the request of CBP so they could watch the other side.
If I could have my choice, I would go with a Trump Wall with CROWS stations every mile.... remote controlled .50 cal machine guns.
