How do we block people from tunneling under our new wall?

[brainhulk]

Wouldn't that be the obvious way to get past the wall?

Or catapult?

 

[IronWing]

The wall will sink under the weight of it's own cost overruns and folks will simply step right over it.

 

[brycejones]

Moles with rabies to attack anyone trying to tunnel.

DoD will spend $6B with a defense contractor for the program that will fail because moles can't have rabies or some shit.

 

[greatnoob]

The better question is: who is going to finance it?

 

[K1052]

Probably just use drones to fly over it.

dude, Trump already said we pay for it first, then Mexico pays us back in installments.

 

[KMFJD]

guns? it worked for the East Germans and for the Israelis, you wouldn't even have to build a yuuge wall...just a fence...and think of all the jobs this would create..

/s

Is that sarcasm? I can't tell because there are definitely people here who'd believe that

Trumps wall will be defeated by the latest in secret technology developed by the cartels.

i think for Trump the wall is his sociopath ego run rampant. It is an extension for his tiny manhood that he believes will stand as some sort of monument to his greatness. In reality, if it even gets built in its entirety/partly, it will quite likely be torn down when the upkeep and maintenance costs prove pointless and there is a sane administration in the white house again.

The sad thing is he often refers to drugs pouring across the border as justification for it. The solution to drugs is legalizing them, this border will do nothing to stop the huge market for illegal drugs beyond perhaps raising prices. The cartels already use submarines, drones and all sorts of other methods. They're better funded than the Trump wall and will carry on as usual.

Trump just told the Mexican president via twitter that if he won't agree to pay for the wall then he shouldn't come to the US.

Maybe Mexico should just stop taking his calls and pretend he doesn't exist. Seems as good a strategy as any.

1. You toss a grenade over the wall and into the tunnel they're digging.
2. You shoot them off the wall as they climb it.
3. You charge Mexico $10,000.00 return fee. They then stop it on their side.

Build an underground wall.

Tunnels already exist today where drugs are brought over. The wall will do nothing especially since there are things called ladders.

1. You toss a grenade over the wall and into the tunnel they're digging.

Uhmm, the point is you would have to find the tunnel before you attempted to murder the people in it. Nice combination of sociopathy and incompetence there, haha.

2. You shoot them off the wall as they climb it.

You would have to find them. Again, sociopathy and incompetence.

3. You charge Mexico $10,000.00 return fee. They then stop it on their side.

Mexico says no. Now what do you do?

5 challenges Trump may face building a border wall

Quoted for retardation.

You do know that they have build tunnels that go long distances that start and end in buildings/houses?

And you do know that nobody is going to be shot trying to cross the border?

And who's going to make them pay since they're not even going to pay for the wall?

It's easy to see why idiots like yourself voted for Trump.

Depends on the foundation for the walls, if its good clay, it probably is going to have a spread footing probably 5-8 feet down and 5 feet wide. You are already going to be digging deeper than that if you are digging under the rio grande.

If the soils are crap then the wall is essentially built as if it were a land bridge, with large shell piles or caissons every 6-10 feet on center and probably 40ft down. Trying to tunnel through that would be dangerous as the possibility of cave-in is extremely high with all the disturbed soils in the area.

 

[PokerGuy]

A wall doesn't change the fundamental problem, it just makes it a little more difficult so people can't simply walk across. The real deterrents are 1) making it so no employer can employ illegals or face stiff fines, 2) using technology to effectively monitor the border without having to deploy tens of thousands along the border.

Even better, how about two walls with a minefield between? That worked pretty well for the communists in East Germany.

lol you get more retarded every day. Alzheimer's? Daily stroke?

 

[glenn1]

If sanctuary cities are going to disregard immigration laws then just stop enforcing any federal criminal statutes against illegals whatsoever and send any you do catch to a sanctuary city. Send them all the Guantanamo Bay prisoners as well. Let it be known that any firearms background check from a sanctuary city won't be processed and thus effectively all will be allowed to buy a firearm in their city. Pull out all Customs and Immigrations agents from their airports and other points of entry thus effectively shutting them down as international airports. Then let them deal with the criminals, terrorists, and whatever else and then determine whether they still want to pick and choose what federal laws they comply with.

El Chapos men will laugh at the wall.

Mexico says no. Now what do you do?

1. You forget technology of the type used in Israel to prevent terrorist incursions, by using sensitive listening devices that can pinpoint the sound of digging.
2. Criminals blaming the authorities from stopping them from committing crimes isn't going to resonate with the public.
3. Mexico gets payments due them by business or government deducted automatically.
awww.
4. Asset seizures of illegal aliens already living here before you send them back.
