Trump wants to build 30-foot-high wall

The Trump administration wants to build a 30-foot-high border wall that looks good from the north side and is difficult to climb or cut through, according to a pair of contract notices posted to a government website further detailing President Donald Trump's promise to build a "big, beautiful wall" at the Mexican border.
quote:
Both require the wall to sunk at least six feet into the ground and include 25- and 50-foot automated gates for pedestrians and vehicles. The proposed wall must also be built in a such a way that it would take at least an hour to cut through it with a "sledgehammer, car jack, pick axe, chisel, battery operated impact tools, battery operated cutting tools, Oxy/acetylene torch or other similar hand-held tools."

It's about time we had leadership in Washington actually care about illegal immigration and its impact on public safety and the economy.

A wall that's regularly patrolled and monitored with enough physical man power, drones and sensors, is land mined, has fences in front of the wall and wedged enough to prevent ladders from being effective will virtually stop a shite ton of illegal border crossings.
We just spent 13 billion on a new aircraft carrier that will only be in use for 40-50 years. We can spend less than that on something that will last as long as America is still in existence and that is a much more worthy investment.
Good to see the wall coming.

And for that we can thank Obama, for helping get republicans elected.

You want land mines on the border between Mexico and the US?

Why not?
If you're going to secure the border, why not swing for the fences?

wouldn't a small metal fence hooked to a high power voltage be cheaper and more efficient?
Like a prison fence

That's not in the preliminaries that I've seen.

We can put that in front of the wall and behind the land mines.

That's not that impressive.

No, not even feasible.
