  1. Is there anything that Boyst won't hit? In the pink or in the *****?
  2. You're beating the wrong drum. While our veterans, and especially war zone veterans, deserve our respect for their time "in country" they do not get a pass for acting like a petulant child to further an agenda that they can't even convey.
  3. You can call me retarded or most anything you want and it won't bother me, just don't call me Canadian. Even my mother would disown me.
  4. It's Mini Mi pee pee McD. One rather large dick head and one little dick head.
  5. You are not wrong, but they would be world beaters in Canada.
  6. https://www.justice.gov/usao-edny/pr/eight-members-mexican-sex-trafficking-enterprise-plead-guilty-racketeering-sex Eight Members Of Mexican Sex Trafficking Enterprise Plead Guilty To Racketeering, Sex Trafficking, And Related Crimes Prosecution Dismantles Transnational Sex Trafficking Organization that Compelled Women and Girls into Prostitution for Over a Decade WASHINGTON – Eight members of an international criminal organization, known as the Rendon-Reyes Trafficking Organization, entered guilty pleas in federal district court in Brooklyn, New York, this month to Racketeering and other federal charges arising from their scheme to force young women and girls from Mexico and Latin America into prostitution. For over a decade, the defendants smuggled their victims into the United States, then used force, threats of force, fraud, deception, and coercion to compel them to engage in prostitution for the defendants’ profit, generating criminal proceeds which the defendants laundered back to Mexico. The eight defendants were charged in July 2015 in a 27-count indictment in the Eastern District of New York with Racketeering and Racketeering Conspiracy involving predicate acts of sex trafficking by force, fraud, or coercion, sex trafficking of minors, money laundering, alien smuggling, and interstate transportation for prostitution, in addition to parallel substantive charges. The defendants were arrested simultaneously in the United States and Mexico in November 2015 as part of bilateral enforcement action. Five of the defendants were apprehended in Mexico by Mexican authorities and later extradited, and three were arrested in the United States by the specialized Trafficking in Persons Unit of the New York Office of the Department of Homeland Security’s Homeland Security Investigations.
  7. Everything that actually takes some thought is above his pay grade.
  8. Satisfied? Mending Wall Robert Frost, 1874 - 1963 Something there is that doesn’t love a wall, That sends the frozen-ground-swell under it, And spills the upper boulders in the sun; And makes gaps even two can pass abreast. The work of hunters is another thing: I have come after them and made repair Where they have left not one stone on a stone, But they would have the rabbit out of hiding, To please the yelping dogs. The gaps I mean, No one has seen them made or heard them made, But at spring mending-time we find them there. I let my neighbor know beyond the hill; And on a day we meet to walk the line And set the wall between us once again. We keep the wall between us as we go. To each the boulders that have fallen to each. And some are loaves and some so nearly balls We have to use a spell to make them balance: ‘Stay where you are until our backs are turned!' We wear our fingers rough with handling them. Oh, just another kind of outdoor game, One on a side. It comes to little more: There where it is we do not need the wall: He is all pine and I am apple orchard. My apple trees will never get across And eat the cones under his pines, I tell him. He only says, ‘Good fences make good neighbors.' Spring is the mischief in me, and I wonder If I could put a notion in his head: 'Why do they make good neighbors? Isn’t it Where there are cows? But here there are no cows. Before I built a wall I’d ask to know What I was walling in or walling out, And to whom I was like to give offense. Something there is that doesn’t love a wall, That wants it down.' I could say ‘Elves’ to him, But it’s not elves exactly, and I’d rather He said it for himself. I see him there Bringing a stone grasped firmly by the top In each hand, like an old-stone savage armed. He moves in darkness as it seems to me, Not of woods only and the shade of trees. He will not go behind his father’s saying, And he likes having thought of it so well He says again, ‘Good fences make good neighbors.'

  9. Blind squirrel? Low bar? Sometimes he nails it?
  10. From what I can tell by pictures it would appear that the fence is either square tubing or pipe. My guess is that it has a footer to help prevent digging a shallow "tunnel" under it and the "slats" are filled with cement. It may even have rebar extending downward from the footer every foot or so to discourage digging. Keeping it upright would be a function of the footer and connecting the slats to each other. The fence doesn't have to secure our border like a prison wall would secure a prison. All it needs to do is make it difficult to get over it, and take some time so that border agents can get there.
  11. They were flying carpets designed to look like prayer rugs but really just a way to get over the wall.
  12. Link? How long did it take? Did they trigger any sensors?
  13. Seems unlikely that there was justification for the kid's actions but can you enlighten us?
