Could you climb this wall by yourself without equipment?

Could you do it?

That's a six foot tall steel plate at the top, so to do it without gear you would have to make a six foot vertical lunge off of steel beams to grab the top of the wall.

Could I climb it? No.

But, as we know, the people who are going to be climbing this are all doctors, surgeons, and engineers. It's likely they have the intelligence and innovative capabilities to traverse this with little to no struggle.

Why climb it when there are tunnels underneath it? Why climb it when there are things called ladders?

You should carry a giant ladder and tunneling equipment through several miles of desert to prove how dumb Trump is haha wouldn't that be funny.

Ladders and tunneling gear would qualify as equipment. The fact that it's nearly impossible to get past that without gear pf some kind is relevant. That is an incredibly effective structure and the danger and difficulty of traversing it absolutely serves to mitigate illegal crossing. Is it impossible to pass? No, obviously, but it doesn't need to be.

They really aren't thinking this one through, are they?
 
No such thing as a dumb question, right?

Things a bit boring this morning?

So the answer is no, right? There is no way in hell you or anybody you know could climb that without equipment.
 
If you knew the answer, why waste everyone’s time?

This is beneath your usual offerings, and.............

What is your point?

Why try to climb without gear when you can get gear?

Have you heard of Mexican ingenuity?

The left pretends a wall like that across our southern border would not actually mitigate illegal crossings and I think that's nonsense. What do you think?

It is "Year in our lord" 2020

We do have equipment

Do you understand that walls are designed to mitigate a problem rather than be an invincible barrier? Why put a lock on your door when a criminal could just tunnel in or use a battering ram? Not everybody is going to show up with teams and climbing equipment. That shit would be dangerous as hell even with a ladder. It wouldn't stop everybody but a wall like that would absolutely mitigate illegal crossings.
 
Arguing about a fence is the perfect metaphor for your stance on most issues.
 
It is "Here in our lord" 2020

We do have equipment

So everybody is going to show up with ladders, dynamite and repelling equipment? That wall won't mitigate the issue at all?

Then there is the thing called a GUN to back ya


As far as this issue, I'm miles ahead of you

If and when the border wall actually secures our whole border with Mexico, the vain politicians will only have to increase more legal immigration which is much worse

Perhaps just go around the wall where there is still Hundreds of miles of NO wall?

How many heavily impoverished people are going to pull a 30 foot tall ladder and/or thousands of dollars worth of repelling equipment through Mexico and miles of desert to get over that wall? Once you're on top of the wall are you just going to pull that shit up and put it down on the other side? You going to do that while the wife and your 3 kids are sitting on top of a 30 foot tall wall? You really don't think that obstacle will stop some people?

If we finished the wall that wouldn't be an option. You are not debating in good faith.
