If you'd have read the articles, that Freudian slip would still have made perfect sense.Quote:

Heard one of them talking the other night on how a family of five making $20,000 a year are to "RICH" for food stamps. He repeated the phrase "to rich" about 20 times - to push his point that it would be a crime to aid people living on the border of poverty.
Oh, well. Next we'll be putting fences up around the ghettos in our cities and all neighborhoods hosting minorities. To keep the "bad" elements out. Seems the next logical step. Eh?
The inmates might want to escape to the north...Quote:

A new fence, this time India's:

go anti fence attack dogs, go!
Let the fences be made out of Candian Lumber by Mexican Immigrants so the Land of the Free can become a giant prison...
What a waste of money and resources...Quote:

People really, really need to remember that, historically, China's mightiest wall wasn't even actually effective against the puny barbarians it meant to keep out. :rtwno:
So if we build the fence will the Canadians still be able to blame the US when people commit gun crimes in Canada?
maybe they'll just blame the Alaskans?
or will there be a fence there too?
I hope so, then they'll have to blame the Danes and Eskimos.
I'm just curious, is the fence going to go through the lakes too? or around them?
It is a serious consideration...
Besides, surely there are more urgent concerns.... I mean a fence along the shore of the Atlantic would be much handier in case the terrorists are planning a D Day type landing.... Wait, I can almost imagine it...
"Hey, Ali, quick climb that cliff!"
"Sure, give me that AK-47 over there"
"Hey Ali, did you bring your wire-cutters?"
"Wirecutters why?"
"Cause the clowns have built a fence!! They ruined our masterplan!! NOOOOOOO!!!"
Etc:gring:
It is pretty silly since the terrorists fly first class if they wish...
Or they could just sail a million dollar yacht with a dirty bomb into any harbour...
Or use a sledgehammer, a crowbar and a few other cheap items and derail a train...
Or start hitting the major gas pipeline... blow them up/ add additives that ruin car engines/ just cause minor leaks here and there and blow out the cost of maintianing the major lines etc
As for illegal immigants I'm pretty sure they could just use a ladder, cut open the fence, dig under it...
either way, it's more of a pain in the arse for illegals and terrorists than simply walking over a bit of isolated land.
But it is much more of a pain in the arse for taxpayers who paid for a scrawny fence. I mean, we've past the age of Hadrian's Wall, right? Walls! Symbols of weakness they are! China couldn't crush the Xiongnu (and later, Mongols) so they built their biggy walls. Romans couldn't defeat the poor grumpy natives in Scotland, so they built their little walls. See?Quote:

Cost of Fence 3000km long vs a ladder/spade or rope...
if you're worried about the cost there are some relatively cheap ways of making land uncrossable by foot/vehicle that aren't deactivated by ladders.
:happyg:
Edit: to be fair, I'm just trolling in this particular thread.
So what can we name this fence?
DMV? No, its too Korean.
The Great Wall of USA? Well most of the components would be made in China.
The Iron Curtain? No, too Soviet.
The Steel Curtain? That would set off another trade dispute with the EU.
The Great White Folly? ... Combines the ideas of White Elephant, Folly and White Supremists quite nicely... might be a bit too accurate for a Government named device.
The Ward of Anti-illegal and Terrorists? TWAT for short... sums it up nicely too.
Object that can be spotted from space that obstructs movement across borders... too obtuse even for Government.
The Red Zone... No longer will we rely on Red Tape we will rely on Watchtowers, Walls and Mines to create a Red Zone of the improvished huddled masses dead bodies.
Will we still be blamed for the presence of marijuana in the northern states?Quote:
