boner confessor posted:this wouldn't include eminent domain costs for the land near the border which would have to be purchased and vacated You could set the turrets up along already publicly owned easements for power lines and just hook 'em up. If you fire over someone else's property you're only using the airspace so as long as Trump can get an FAA license for that he should be golden. OwlFancier posted:So, if the US/Mexico border is 3201km long, and we space the guns every 2.5km in order for them to be able to cover an area in front of the wall at maximum spacing, that puts the cost of the robo-annihilation wall at $256,080,000 for the guns alone. Looks like the air force is going to be getting 2,500 and a half F-35s.

Extensive Vamping posted:Incidentally, a wall will not affect airplanes which make up the majority of illegal entry. I didn't know that! Is this a case of people flying in legally then overstaying their visas?

PT6A posted:Yes, or doing things not permitted by their visas. Unsurprisingly, this makes up the vast majority of illegal immigration from countries other than Mexico (and probably from Mexico too, but I don't have the numbers). And yet, inexplicably, Trump voters get most upset about undocumented Mexican and Central American immigrants, and not so much about Canadians or Europeans. I wonder... I wonder what it could be... Oh there's plenty of "a culture that's too different can't assimilate!" (while simultaneously considering Asian-Americans to be high achievers, go figure) but alot of it has to do with where most of the migrants are coming from. If millions of Europeans were coming over and taking Rust Belt jobs they'd be hated too. DeusExMachinima fucked around with this message at 18:00 on Jan 8, 2017 |
