The one who is going to splatter from a wall is Trumpty Dumpty.

… and they called in Kirsten Nielsen but they couldn’t put all the families they split apart back together again, the end. Good Night America.

And all of the king’s horses and all of the king’s men still weren’t enough to stop people from cutting through, tunneling under, climbing over, or going around the stupid, over priced monstrosity.

We need to remember the children separated from their parents.

Why didn’t the Trumpublicans have a plan to reunite the parents and their children? Do Trumpublicans not have children? Do Trumpublicans have no feeling at all for the suffering of others? If they had no plan from the beginning, they are staggeringly incompetent.

Was their plan all along to permanently separate the children from their families as a deterrent to immigration? If so, they are showing depraved indifference, inhuman cruelty.

The argument over that wasteful and ineffective wall is breaking up more than an egg.

“Trumpty Dumpty tried for a wall, Trumpty Dumpty had a great fall. All of Vlad’s Horses and All of Vlad’s men, couldn’t get Trumpty’s Balls back again!”

(Nancy REFUSES to give them up!)

An informed opinion …

" …

Further, when there IS a wall, generally all costs for security and alerting are built into the wall, offering a fantastic opportunity for attackers to plan distractions, costly vandalism, and to circumvent the easily probed security. You know how expensive it is to hire a welder to work in the desert, and to haul repair materials out like that? It’s certainly not cheap. And then you need an HSI expert to repair and test the security.

But the desert doesn’t need another delay mechanism. The desert there itself is the delay mechanism, as it takes days to cross, and there’s nowhere to hide.

Instead, we just need an effective alarm. Instead of a wall or barrier, what we need is drones: cheap, efficient cameras capable of quickly being replaced and covering large areas. Put a motion sensor and anomaly detection on the drone platform, have it call out a second drone for continued monitoring, and follow the incursion while alerting the actual border patrol to send out a truck.

I recommend crocodiles be introduced to the Rio Grande. That will cut down on illegal crossings.

Had you considered running for National Security Advisor?

Trumpy Dumbty sat on a wall. Trumpty Dumbty had a great fall. All of Putin’s horses and all of Putin’s men couldn’t put Trumpty back together again.

The selling of the government continues. “How much do I get for deregulating this part of the environment?” “The private prison system could make billions if we just had a new pool to incarcerate. How about we arrest all those ‘illegals’ that work in our hotels, farms, construction and the government will pay.” “Who needs schools, infrastructure, regulatory enforcement, medicare, social security, when we can make cuts in them and give the top 1% need a tax cut. Or better, we can cut taxes on the rich and businesses, first, and not be able to afford those things.”

Citizens United, 501c’s, dark money, bribery made legal, in an age when the truly wealthy have more money than god and a chance to play god with others peoples lives by buying governments. What’s left when you’ve bought everything?

Any wall is a static thing can can be breached.We need enough “wall” so people know where the border is and can’t casually stroll across it. We also need plenty of signage indicating the direction of the nearest check-in point. The signage should state, “Check in and we’ll hear your case in accordance with our immigration laws. Cross the wall and you will be arrested, detained, deported and never allowed to set foot in the United States ever again.”

The wall and the signage are merely a “trip wire” so people can’t say, “I didn’t know.” Violate it and we have clear reason to respond. The real teeth in this defense are surveillance systems, sensors and patrols (active measures). This is known in military parlance as “defense in depth.”

Also instead of declaring that Mexico is our enemy, we should court them as our ally. We should share drone and satellite imagery and other intelligence with them. We should have our law enforcement and their law enforcement agencies work together. The Mexicans should be responsible for policing their side of the border not only against the fence but also at the checkpoints.

Our war on drugs is a poorly conducted campaign. We are fighting it as a defensive battle on our streets. We are fighting it alone. I say that we go on the attack. Let Mexico take the lead and with our assistance fight the war on their side of the border. Get behind the enemy’s lines; bring the fight to the cartels on their own turf. Interdict the supply at the source. This is known in military parlance as “strike deep.”

Oh yes, the signs need to be in multiple languages: especially Spanish to keep out Mexicans (All them people in the “mob” are Mexican regardless of country of origin) and Arabic so all those Middle Eastern terrorists can be given notice.

An Arizona City Warns It Will Sue If Razor Wire Isn’t Removed From Its Border FenceTwo to six rows of new razor wire – concertina -now covers the entirety of a tall border wall through downtown… most concerned that children and others [and non-human animals] could be injured now that it reaches the ground. The downtown area is also residential, and there are homes that stand a few feet from the border fence.http://time.com/5523605/nogales-arizona-razor-wire-border/

High speed rail track is the answer.. then you could have a train with a wall on it.. move to where you think the caravan will cross.. Much like that old computer game Pong.. bounce those darn refugees right back to kingdom come.

Moderately eggnorant. Securing and defending our border ain’t easy but is necessary.

Whatever the Republicans are calling their weapon of mass distraction these days.

Devastatingly it is the families that were separated at the boarder that couldn’t be put back together again.

So proud of the modern language and ideals we are able to pass to our children? Lasting impressions or examples of regurgitated rhetoric. Scary to me.
