Military special forces based in Florida and U.S. Customs and Border Protection special units three weeks trying to breach and scale the eight models in San Diego, using jackhammers, saws, torches and other tools and climbing devices, said the official, who spoke on condition of anonymity because the information was not authorized for public release. The report recommends combining elements of each, depending on the terrain. The official likened it to a Lego design, pulling pieces from different prototypes.

Sounds good, let’s get started.
But.. but... but... I thought they could just build a 16 foot ladder to scale a 15 foot wall...
No wall design is complete without a cohort of medieval taunting French.
Can we have spec ops on the wall walking the line with shoot to kill orders?
That takes care of “over” and “through”...What about “under”?
There are 22 million illegals in America. Round them up to build the wall for nothing.
[ That takes care of over and through...What about under? ]
Well a bank vault don’t stop wire fraud, but it is still needed.
Perhapse the walls go down a bit and have sensors./
Excellent news that the companies they chose for the prototypes did a great job, also that must have been fun for the special forces to try, even if they didn’t succeed.
Immigrants/trespassers will defeat it. They have a bigger incentive.
Bury razor wire one foot deep, two feet away from the wall in each direction. That’ll at least slow them down.
Lost me on not authorized to release or whatever
A sorta-recent modification to a banking facility used fences going down, reportedly, about 18 feet. You would know the bank name, which I will not mention publicly nor in FReepmail (no one bother asking).
This depth thwarts all but the drug-smugglers and a few others, but takes care of most amateurs. This facility needed high-security hence the depth.

Or English archers flipping them the bird. The English archers introduced “the bird” when the French threatened to cut off their middle fingers to prevent them from pulling back the bows.
Absolutely. Is the wall going to be 100% effective in keeping out illegals? Nope.
But will it slow down and otherwise discourage 95% of the illegals that try to cross when compared to the cake walk they have today? You bet it will.
Wall is sunk 10 feet deep. We send rabid honey badgers into tunnels and seal the entrance.
Yeah, so lets do nothing.
Thanks...Happier now...{:-)
Someone start a Go Fund Me type page for the Trump Wall. We’ll kick in a nice donation instead of giving to the Republican Senatorial Committee this year.
I agree, enough trials and displays. Get rolling!
