That's redonkulous.

And you wonder why Trump is running away with it.....
Would it be heated?

If Larke built it. And cooled. With little camo doilies.

Yeah, but then it wouldn't be very tall.
And I can't imagine your recalcitrance to this..........I mean, you HAVE met Johnboy, right?

HEY! They could put the Jeff Davis statue up there. That'd solve about.........um..........7 feet of it! Save some cash! In fact, we could round up all the Confederate paraphernalia that's really solid and put it all along the border. Canada'd never know what it was anyway, and it'd be up there in the auspices of them Yankees, who could drive by and sneer at it and stuff. Give 'em something to do.

I wonder how that would work for the folks in Maine that can only access their town through Canadian roads..

"Washington (CNN)It's not just the southern border: Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker says it's "legitimate" to discuss building a wall separating the United States from Canada, as well."
As long as the conversation quickly ends with "STFU and sit down." I'm good with this. He clearly needs some yankee votes. Well, all votes really but youknowwhatimean.
If we all threw our problems in a pile, and you saw everyone else's problems-- you'd take yours back.
I'd sooner give Tejas back to Mexico.

In reality, looking at it from a security standpoint rather than an illegal immigration view, it does make sense. I suppose a terrorist could get in easier on the northern border than they could the southern one. A lot fewer border posts, and the number one concern is that you aren't taking too many fish back across the border.

I think focusing on the one with people pouring over it 24x7 would be the best prioritization here.

For the record, I think they're both asinine ideas.

I'll third that. A wall doesn't do crap unless it's surrounded by a minefield and claymores. Obviously, the one we already have doesn't do diddly-squat.

I wasn't saying I thought it was a good idea or that it would work. I only commented that depending on if you want the wall to stop illegal crossings by migrants or if you want it as a security fence then it's a good idea to put one on both sides.

And the sign said anybody caught trespassin' would be shot on sight
So I jumped on the fence and-a yelled at the house, "Hey! What gives you
the
right?"

"As I went walking I saw a sign there
And on the sign it said "No Trespassing."
But on the other side it didn't say nothing,
That side was made for you and me."

Yep me too.
Don't tell Bucky, he's picky about the poltical persuasions of hos musicians. And actors. And preachers. and barbers, and doctors, and.....
He's afraid some might rub off.
