The Great Wall of China didn't keep out invading Mongols.
The Walls of Troy didn't keep out the Greek army.
Hadrian's Wall didn't keep Britain from rebelling against Rome.
The Western Wall didn't prevent Jerusalem from changing hands multiple times.
The Wall in Game of Thrones can't even keep out the Wildlings, much less the White Walkers and their army of wights (spoilers!) that it was built for.
The Berlin Wall didn't keep Eastern Germans out of West Germany.
The fence on the house down the street didn't keep me from jumping over it and getting the fuck out of there when the owner caught me banging his daughter on the couch.
Most of these failed in the ancient and/or medieval period during which they were built. To think such an outdated and static defensive system will be anything but an eyesore that flushes money down the toilet is completely fucking stupid.
The only relevant example above is the Berlin Wall, and it was pretty fucking effective for several decades. I don't foresee the Messican Army sacking El Paso or or San Diego anytime soon, and the Border Patrol would spot their tubs of hot oil from miles away before they ever got a chance to dump it or launch there catapulted stones. And, last I checked, Messico hadn't declared war on the US to begin with, so.
The wall is a waste of money and more symbolic than anything. Now days it's clinging to guns, religion, and the wall.
Guns and religion is so much better than communism, socialism, big government, forced wealth redistribution, LGBT, muslims, terrorists, illegal alliens and anything that damages America. Who raised you asshats Bill Ayers?

Jesus, Hondo. Whoosh. Didn't mean to confuse or scare you with the vats of hot oil or catapults references.

For fucks sake
We had stickers on our windows saying we had an alarm system and a vicious dog (Husky)
It was a ruse that worked
