The US south border wall contract should go to Poles, then

So where is the link that shows this marvel of Polish construction?

Which is still far, far more effective than no wall at all.

Finish the Wall and put a permanent armed force along the border and coast.

No more illegal aliens from Mexico.

From Mexico? Do you mean Mexicans or people traveling through Mexico?

Does it matter?

All illegal aliens need to be stopped by whatever means necessary.

We don’t have border security because our elites do not want it. They prefer border security around their gated communities and they want a steady flow of people coming across the border for slave labor.

Apparently, the leaders in Poland actually care about their people. Which all ties back to how multi-culturalism doesn’t work.

Poland is about 99% white while the US is becoming a dumpster fire. I wonder why?

The country is going to be a place no one wants to come to very soon so the wal is absolutely not needed.

The border between Poland and Belarus is a land of forests, rolling hills, river valleys, and wetlands.


https://portal-mundurowy.pl/index.ph...-sie-w-grudniu

The fence is 5.5 meters high (18'): 5 meters are steel poles, topped with a half-meter coil of wire so that it is impossible to go to the other side.
Close to 41,000 steel span units and 41,000 steel pillars are used in the construction of the over 186-kilometer-long barrier. Twenty-two gates are built throughout the barrier as well.
Modern, electronic methods of border management (motion sensors along the entire border, cameras) will also be used.
Electronic protection of the external border has been enhanced with further perimeter sets.

The perimeter sets purchased by the Border Guard include, inter alia, seismic sensors and alarm verification cameras. While the cameras are visible to outsiders, only the Border Guard officers know the locations of seismic sensors – buried in the ground.

Alarm signals from seismic sensors and images from cameras are sent to receivers, which Border Guard officers take with them on patrols, and to Border Guard posts.
The equipment is highly mobile and can be used in all terrain conditions.

Wrong, not the wall that Trump built! Any small place that collapsed was built by a private group or the cement hadn't set yet and winds got it. No, Trumps wall was not breached successfully 3,000 times. Get a grip, will you? Where that wall has been built it has been 90% effective in deterring illegal entry. The wall needs to be completed on the necessary areas of our border.

One more time

That wall didn't move because the wind moved before the concrete had set up.

It moved because the idiots building it did not brace it while the concrete was curing.

In case you think I am an idiot, DH has a degree in Civil engineering. And his family owned a company that built freeways and other big projects.

Even this old suburban housewife knows to brace a 4x4 fencepost while the concrete sets up.

I do not understand why they didn't and that causes grave doubt on the rest of their project. Especially the part where money was collected for a private wall and not used o that wall.
