Fearing New Migrant Invasion From Turkey, Bulgaria Builds Massive Border Wall

Some people ignore the fact that the wall Hungary built is working. Germans are even immigrating to Hungary because of it.

To say walls don't work is the ultimate stupid statement. Why do we put walls around people and places? Why have a wall around a prison?
If walls work so good around prisons, why do we bother with armed guards?

A wall around a house or other small object is one thing - a wall along the border of a country or a large area like a prison is a whole different concept - the wall only works as a reference point and a delaying tactic until the guards get there. The Romans knew that 2000 years ago.

It took the Romans 1500 men to guard 73 miles of Hadrian's Wall. You want a wall which will measure thousands of miles. How many armed guards are you willing to pay for?

Notice that I always ignore links to Breitbart, except to point out that they're always based on Fact-free innuendos.

No, they are based on facts from other sources as you would know if you read them:

But then I suppose you are too stupid to do that.

Walls never work - the Great Wall of China never worked, Hadrian's wall only worked as long as there were three Roman Legions protecting it, the Berlin Wall didn't stop anybody - it took a huge number of armed guards shooting anybody who tried to cross to keep East Germans in.

The present hunk of wall has been a miserable failure -a bigger wall will be a bigger failure, and bankrupt the US in the process...
Wall work as intended if you work the plan. The Berlin wall comes to mind.

The Berlin Wall didn't really work, except as a symbol of repression. People were crossing it constantly. The only thing that held the East Berliners in check were the gunners shooting as many escapees as they could, and even that only slowed the flow.

There were over 5000 successful escapees recorded, estimated 4 times that many made it secretly, several hundred shot and killed, and many more seriously wounded.

Is that the image the US Right wants to project?

I see that Brewster just can not bring himself to want the US to stop illegal immigration so he will cling at any stupid reason argue against it.
