My point, specifically, is that no amount of walls, fences or money buys "border security". There is no such thing, at least in the way it is usually framed.

It's all theater in support of the Border Industrial Complex. It's big money for contractors, Border Patrol and the Mexican cartels, and fodder for politicians to whip their constituents into fearful frenzies.

Weaponizing vulnerable, desperate people for political gain is cruel, whether it is gruesome and vicious under Trump, or the more passive-aggressive policies favored by Democrat administrations.

I've been busy with other things, but I'll post more border news, photos and commentary in the coming months. I spend much of the year now living less than an hour away from the border. I hope seeing a video like the one in the OP demonstrates the stupidity of walls. You really have to be here to see these things to understand them.
