      They should. Send Abbott a bill for polluting their waterway too, while they’re at it.

        Probably the only reason Mexico hasn’t already pulled it out is because they don’t want to waste money that they know will never be reimbursed to them.

        Maybe the US will take it down and bill Texas themselves.

      As funny as it would be, taking it out on construction workers who probably didn’t choose to be there seems a little unfair

      Why arrest Texans who enter Mexico to kill people? Just shoot the Texans before they can cause any damage

      They should just be drowned. That’s the purpose for this barrier, so I think it’d be fair to drown anyone working to construct it. (I don’t condone drowning the workers, but the workers should stand up against their employers due to drowning risk. If they don’t listen, maybe they should have an “accident” and “drown” instead and the workers take control.)
