Stop posting this stuff! Everyone knows walls don't work!

Man, Spain is whack. tell me that's not better than strung cattle fencing. I haven't looked, but do any of our potential new barrier designs include stuff like concertina along the top, or did they decide that was "inhumane"?

Why not use a cable trenching machine and detcord triggered by vibration/pressure sensors run in the "no mans land" side??

As we were frequently reminded when up on the IGB, "There is no 'no-man's land'."  The border is clearly marked (there were stones from the middle ages that were the boundary markers, but there were "Halt!  Hier Grenze !" signs to also mark the border.  The yellow, black, and red concrete barber poles were well inside East Germany, but the space from the Halt signs to the barber poles was NOT a "no-man's land".  You could and would be shot by the East German border guards if you stepped into East Germany.

So there is not a "no-man's land" between the US and Mexico.  However, that doesn't me we can't do a defense in depth...


Some days even my lucky rocketship underpants won't help.


Bring me my Broadsword and a clear understanding.
Get up to the roundhouse on the cliff-top standing.
Take women and children and bed them down.
Bless with a hard heart those that stand with me.
Bless the women and children who firm our hands.
Put our backs to the north wind.
Hold fast by the river.
Sweet memories to drive us on,
for the motherland.

Who mows the grass along the border?  Contractor or lowest enlisted soldier?   =D

Do you know why you can enjoy a day at the zoo ??

The same crew that cuts the grass on The Walking dead.
If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animating contest of freedom, go home from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or your arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains set lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that you were our countrymen.

By "No Man's Land" I meant a strip of US soil between Mexico and our barrier that would be protected by any means needed.

Does Soros really have a wall enclosing his place?

Some heartless wag suggested quad M2s every half mile or so.  Fire at anything moving bigger than a coyote.

In the picture I posted above, the plowed strip is a minefield....
