Fox just showed Trump talking about the infamous "fence" aka his border wall. Apparently he wanted concrete, but his staff told him they needed the fence-like design to prevent people from climbing on top of it(which didn't work since the migrants either dug underneath it or literally just climbed over it with the use of a ladder).
Do we have any architects in here? Something about this just sounds wrong. Great Wall of China worked well enough and it still stands today.
The way to do it is to have guards posted, either real people or an automatic security system, who can then call in for a larger force. There's no foolproof system that doesn't require manpower in order to operate.
That said, any level of deterrence is better than none, and putting up the slightest bit of resistance drastically reduces the number of people who'll cross illegally. "Needing a Ladder/Shovel" is a barrier that'll keep a shocking amount of people from even trying.

I am absolutely gleeful that all the western golems programmed to kneejerk condemn anyone who supports a border wall as a xenophobic genocidal religious fundamentalist far-right enthnonationalist are waking up to the fact that Israel is a xenophobic genocidal theocratic far-right ethnostate with a border wall.
 
i know you're riding high right now, but the cartels aren't the problem
mexicans who make them are
so unless you're willing to commit genocide, this is going to go on forever
The cartels have been helped by the CIA/feds in many cases, changing that, cutting them off from protection and actually hitting a few of them in the mouth with some well placed specop or drone strikes will bloody them. Might not completely wipe them out, but making it a lot more painful for them could be a real sea change.
 
This is the first time I'm paying some attention to the whole Inauguration process and there is a lot of Pomp and Circumstance, I can only imagine how miserable Amy Klobachar is having to help organize and participate in this whole thing for someone she hates with the fire and passion of a thousand suns.
Fuck her. Suffah, horse!
 
Not really. Today there are massive holes in the great wall because being stone, its not easily repaired and degrades over time to the weather. With a fence, you can swap shit out, and better, you can see on the other side of it.
Just mount M2s (Blessed be St. Browning) on the top and shoot anyone approaching it. Problem solved.
However, like everyone learned from the Great Wall of China, walls or fences don't help if they aren't patrolled by trustworthy guards.
Like I said, give coast guard enforcement of the waterway, the wall gets patrolled by DEA/CBP/ state NG and authorize them to shoot at the Mexican side.

Walls aren't going to survive a concentrated assault at a single ocular point. But they are great at funneling people who aren't deadset on blowing it up regular the flow of people and commerce.
Stop! I can only get so erect!

to bad Fauci got a get out of jail card.
That mentality helps keep men like Fauci out of justice. If he shot someone point blank in the head, I don't care if Pedojoe's masters signed a piece of paper, he still has to go. Everyone should be looking to do their own little part to make he and his ilk as afraid as possible...

That is true, you need security, or border patrol in this case, to actually do their job. Still, we will know if Trump is serious if not only spics get deported but we see a massive drop in them getting thru. Like I said, I don't care what you do, station armed aircraft that use the spics for target practice, give patriots licence to kill and announce spic hunting season, I don't care. He is the most powerful man in the world, Trump can make it happen, if he's serious we will hear about the border situation improving. We already see spics getting turned away thanks to that shitty app of theirs not working, but this is only the bare minimal in my eyes.
