Aren't a lot of the labourers working on it going to be Mexicans?
And the steel and concrete needed? The nearest factories to the border are on the Mexican side?

They may not be paying for it but they will be a fair few Mexicans/ Mexican companies making some money off of it.

No, Trump will make sure American companies hiring American workers build the American wall.

But all the sub-contractors will be Mexican, most definitely. Do you have any idea what it would cost to build a wall that long with White workers?

Anyone who sees a Nazi get punched and gets upset is probably a closet nazi. The correct response is to laugh at the stupid nazi who got punched.

Huh. So, like, who's at fault in a situation like that where the signals didn't go off?

I know that FedEx or the trucking company will probably fire the driver for not stopping to look, but like, for insurance purposes or whatever

I know this is from a couple pages ago, but the train company would be at fault. My mom was in a similar situation about ten years ago and I got a fun crash course on that and why you should always take a settlement if there's even a sliver of a chance you'd lose the lawsuit.

The schadefreude is on my mom for turning down a couple million settlement, and then revealing at the trial that she was HIGH AS BALLS at the time.

This reminds me of the time I shot a (legal) sawed-off shotgun and tried to aim with two hands instead of holding it at arm's length. Sadly there's no video of me punching myself in the face due to recoil, otherwise I would share it and be laughed at.

"Tiny Trains"

They've put so many signs and special signals and such around those types of bridges, but I really think something like a super bright strip of LED's right along the bottom of the bride and/or a strobe that lights up the whole drat bridge itself, not a warning sign, might maybe get some of these idiots to look up and avoid the thing flashing brightly at them.

The little curb that juts out so if you hit it you carom off into oncoming traffic is a nice touch.

I think a big plastic bar at the same height just before you get to the bridge so you smack it instead would probably be better.

This has worked pretty well for them, but even if the truck stops before it hits the tunnel, it still fucks up a lot of peoples' days.
