Isn’t this against the US constitution? Razor wire along the state border and checkpoints on roads that cross the state border are kind of nuts. I read a comment joking that the wire and road checkpoints were to keep Texan women from escaping to New Mexico, which got a bitter laugh out of me.
If they could do this around the entire state I’d appreciate it. I never want to accidentally wander into Texas.
But seriously, how unhinged is this dude? How do you convince everybody involved in this that it’s actually a good idea? Are the people putting up the fence just as unhinged?
The people who put this up are not paid enough to risk challenging anybody on this. They’re not crazy, they just need money to survive. Their bosses, on the other hand… Yeah, I don’t know. It’s amazing that it can make it through as many hands as it must have and nobody says “Are you sure?” Or maybe they did and they just kept being shut down.
