Oh, and Fentanyl is mostly sent by packages services from China and elsewhere. It's made in Canada and the USA also. Simple chemistry.

It's foolish to think for a second that stopping 100% of border crossings would make a dent in Americans thirst for drugs. Where the customers exist, the supply will always continue. Besides, as you know, Big Pharma is by far the largest sellers of opiates in the world.
And how much illegal labor did you employ?

Please tell me again about the high quality tools you used from harbor freight. The good stuff from America with brand names like Pittsburgh.

You really have no clue about any of the subjects you post about on here.

Throw in the fact that the steel will be baking in the desert heat (unless it's some special grade of steel). That will negate most - if not all daytime efforts.

Another aspect our retired engineer does not consider.

Lol...yeah, and a moat filled with Alligators and sharks with lazers on their heads! Oh, and I forgot soldiers to shoot them in the legs.

Libs fear it would work. Their fear is well-founded.

Is there nothing that satiates the symptoms of tds for more than a day? I can't imagine how much you people think about Trump. What a miserable life.

If you enacted laws going after the people that employ them, they why would they come if they can't find employment, homes, etc.\

Who are you to judge her or any other poster on here? She has just as much right to be here as you do.
Just as much of a right to post, and just as much of a right to her own opinions and life experiences.

Wait until he electrifies it, and then mines a 100 yard buffer zone in front of it.
