Build the wall!
But if You want to stop the flow of illegal contraband coming up from the Southern stinkhole that is Mexico, C. America, and Latin America you search EVERYTHING AND EVERYONE.
I believe now they don’t scan everything nor everyone and use some sort of combination of tips, biometrics, gut instincts, and randomness, etc at the border.
Prioritize the searching and testing of perishable goods in their own separate lines.
Everything and everyone else first come first serve.
It may take weeks or months to cross but oh well. We need to stop the flow of Mexico’s and Latin America’s number one exports drugs.
MAGA can choke that border to a standstill and it would solve a lot of this country’s drug problem.
Than you also do the same with the ports. NO CONTAINER GETS IN WITHOUT BEING CHECKED. THIS IS FOR THE CHI-COMS THAT LIKE TO SEND CONTAINERS FULL OF FENTANYL.
BUILD THE WALL, CHOKEHOLD THE BORDER!!

Why is that slur necessary? Just takes away from your point.

This is a bullshite answer. We just allocated $23 Billion for border security.
Also, I believe this country put a man on a rocket and blasted him to the moon and are actively working on sending one to Mars.
I think we can chokehold a border if the powers that be really wanted to.

Ah a skyscreamer that likes to spout off trigger words: Nazi, Facist, Gestapo.
Bro you don’t even know who or what those people really did. I would suggest you go and watch about 12 hours of WWII docs on Netflix and get back to me.

I stopped reading after the first sentence.
Yes, trucks are scaled out by weight and they they know the weight of the truck, trailer, and freight on the back.
We need to build a wall, but not because of the fricking truck drivers

Interesting thought I read that El Chapo and the cartels often times will stick their drugs in the supposed product that is being shipped in.
Who said it anything about blaming the truck drivers? They are often the pawns driving the shite unknowingly across. You search them but unless they are able to stick multiple kilos up there arse, the weight is in their container of goods.

Would be impossible and would grind shipping to a halt

You are right. When I vacationed to Cabo a few times, i flew. I’m not getting in that suck known as the border with that mass of “humanity.”
Declare the emergency and tighten that border like a python strangling out its kill.

Ladi freaking do.
It would also greatly increase the seizure of illegal people, drugs, and trafficking that get through.
Perhaps Mexico would then start acting like a big boy country and realize we can cripple their economy if they don’t pay lice their own citizens.

You ever drive a van with Texas plates into Canada? Those folks were looking everywhere for the potential bullet even.

Mexico has virtually nothing to do with container shipping into the U.S.
90% of everything the average American owns came to them on a boat. Checking everything is unrealistic

I wish I could show you a picture of a BOL when it crosses the border. It's hard to hide the weight unless the shipper in Mx is fraudulently manipulating the paperwork as well. I say that because shippers have to put the freight weight as well as the cost of the product on the paperwork and fax it over to the border clearance before you ever show up to the border in the first place. No paperwork, no cross.
I think what you might be referring too is drivers keeping a certain amount of fuel in their truck to fluctuate weight. Keep in mind Covington these trucks can hold hundreds of lbs in fuel so there is a little leeway in that.
Also I apologize, I kinda implied that Container + truck = a truck driver in the simplest of terms
Still agree to build the wall but this kind of stuff isn't as prevalent as you'd think.. I understand they just had a big bust, but you won't ever see 40k of coke and meth at a time. Hence why that big meth bust was a few hundred pounds... hint hint.. fuel fluctuation
