Ummmm...... you do realize that building a wall does not mean that anything on the other side of it automatically becomes Mexico, right?
Refer to above, and add, that a wall isn't necessary on every single inch of the border, a prime example being the Rio Grande. Building a wall in certain areas means that resources can be better focused on the areas where there is no wall.
You also realize that building a wall does not mean that legal border crossings will cease, correct?
Calm down, take a deep breath.
All excellent points of which the liberals and ethnocentrics will still refuse to get.
So I guess you'd be okay if the wall is actually built and your house was on the Mexico side?! LMAO!!!
If your ok or not isnt the issue. If you build on or that close to a right of way you need to accept that something like this could happen.
In my town years ago they took up the railroad tracks. A few years ago they put them back and started the trains running thru again. During these years some people living near the railroad easement built structures on or very close to that property then they were PO'ed when the trains were going thru "their yard".
Its not like these people don't have access to their house. They have a free privacy/security fence.
These people give no second thought of hurting others are somehow oblivious to the fact that the sword they use could be a double edged one. Tt makes me happy to see trump voters having it blow up in their face.
I see a BIG distortion in your attempt to go after Trump.
"Trump voter upset the border wall will put her house on Mexico side"

Her house is ALREADY "on the Mexico side."
"According to one family who had their farm cut in half — part of it in the U.S., part of it in Mexico —"
I lived 8 miles from the AZ-Mexico border for 10 years and met a lot of ranchers. They are the landed gentry of AZ politics. Many do not like the border wall idea AT ALL. They are not going to take a check from the Feds and cede their lands without a fight.
This is just one more reason this wall is a monumentally bad idea. It's never gonna happen.
Probably already commented on, but this is a Rio Grande issue. How long is AZ's border on the RG? 0 miles.
funny, her yard will likely end up being a home for thousands of illegals milling about
She could always open a Home Depot on her land. Oh wait! They don't spend money, they are there to make money!
