The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

For one, they want more judges and courts to adjudicate cases more quickly. But many on the right just want to put up an impenetrable barrier (hah!) to prevent them from entering in the first place, even though that isn't possible along large parts of the border (e.g. in the middle of a river), and violates the law regarding asylum-seekers - 1pg

---------------

A better solution would be to do both.

BTW, I am so very tired of being reminded you can't build a wall in a river or it's not needed on a high bluff. Mainly walls are needed in high population areas where a border runner can quickly disappear into a city population. The wall segments simply channel the migrants into POE's or into more open areas where they can be processed or apprehended. Patrols and drones can handle the rural areas just fine. But the libs dismiss the entire concept with the superficial "you can't build a wall in a river."
