    Nobody seems to mention that these barriers are designed to slip and pull people down so they thrash down into the netting at the bottom that is designed to trap them, then they drown. The “deterrent” that they post signs warning about only on the American side, is death.

      And the fucking United States government shouldn’t have to sue to put an end to this. Sick and fucking tired of hearing about “states rights”.

      We are the United States of America. Time for the federal government to use its power go down there remove the fucking barriers and make Texas pay for the removal.

      Then if Abbott and his cronies want to continue pull federal funding until they fucking bleed. Our until the Texans get sick of hurting and remove the scumbags from office.
