In November 2017, Ian McAllister and Chris Peters of Brookings Productions filmed along the U.S.-Mexico border, showing the vast expanses and sometimes rugged landscape where President Trump has promised to build a border wall.

The steel bar type is the perfect solution so that it allows people to still see the country side. Just as long as it is nice and tall. But forget the rugged terrain part. It looks way to impractical to build there. We can use some form of technology for the rest of these areas.

The Great Wall in China was built starting in the Seventh Century BC. 4,000 miles long and built by hand. America's Wall should be done in a couple of years based on the fact we have all modern equipment. Politicians working for the dark side are the hold up. Build the Wall for Heaven's sake already.

As a Designer/Engineer, I don't like this WALL. The horizontal component on top gives the climber something to assist him/her to pull up & over.. I still like the "POISONED RAZOR WIRE" at the top, Pop-Up Machine Guns, Anti-Tunnel explosives to go along with the Anti-Personnel Mines. But...cough, cough...10 years to build.... That would let another 20,000,000 illegals into the country. You wouldn't need a wall, if the immigrants couldn't get a job. So.... start severely fining any employer that gives an Illegal Immigrant a job. This does not include workers with green cards, or documented migrant workers, just the illegals & employers who refuse to comply with the law. Tell the countries south of our border that all their aid is cut off to pay for this new border. If you are wanting to solve the problem, then SOLVE IT....

@@joemonroe9456 I agree completely and they are. But in the roughest part of Big Bend National Park the river canyon is vertical and very rough and desolate. It's also a NP so motorized access isn't allowed even to patrol it. The U.S. Customs and Border Patrol (CBP) Division of the Department of Homeland Security, has 334 horse patrols deployed on an average day. A number of these horses are wild mustangs that have been trained and deployed along the U.S. borders. The Border Ballard fence is a force multiplier.

I keep hearing, "BUILD the WALL", & that might be a good thing. However, if you would start severely fining companies & people for hiring them, they will have to leave. Americans everywhere could help flush out millions of unwanted Illegal Aliens from within our borders. If you had the E-Verify Card in place, for citizens only, where they couldn't buy a single piece of goods, without it, they would have to go home, to survive. These half-baked ideas of the DEMONrats, are costing our country trillions of dollars. Men & women in Congress who vote against American Security, need to be thrown out of Congress & totally disgraced, with no pension or perks. Aiding an Abetting a criminal is against the law, even if a damned Congress Person does it.
