Cars lined up to cross into the United States from Tijuana, Mexico, are seen through barriers topped with concertina wire at the San Ysidro port of entry. Thieves have been taking the wire and selling it in Tijuana for home security.
Whatever adjectives you might use to describe a border wall ― “big” or perhaps even “beautiful” ― “readily stolen” is not likely one of them.
Unnamed Mexican officials told San Diego’s KUSI-TV that 15 to 20 people have been arrested for stealing concertina wire from the U.S.-Mexico border and selling it to security-minded homeowners in Tijuana.
U.S. troops installed the fencing in November 2018 at the urging of President Donald Trump, who was concerned about a “caravan” of migrants.
“We have detected that the barbed wire that was installed in the border area is no longer there,” Marco Antonio Sotomayor Amezcua, the secretary of public safety in Tijuana, confirmed to the San Diego Union-Tribune. “We know about the stealing of the concertina [wire] from United States authorities who have asked us for help through the liaison staff.”
Though Mexican authorities told the Union-Tribune that those arrested were mostly Mexican citizens, one Tijuana resident who had the wire installed said the man who sold it to her sure didn’t seem Mexican.
The woman, identified as “Veronica,” told the newspaper El Sol de Tijuana that the man had blue eyes, blonde hair, and didn’t speak Spanish well.
The residents paid 40 pesos to have the razor-sharp fencing material installed outside their homes, reported Tijuana’s XEWT-12 TV. That’s equivalent to $2.10.

Mexicans are stealing. I didn't expect that.
I will build my pared and Americans will pay for it
As surprising as Americans bombing a village
The wall keeping Mexican families safe
Need another wall now to protect this new wall
LOL.
It's not exactly the same but it reminds me of the guys that built out of free FedEx boxes.
bernie to trump to david duke
Resourceful ers. Blacks would steal and use it to murder each other
Stealing = Using for today's Leftist Socialist
This must be hilarious for those who oppose a border wall and like to minimalize Americans dying due to illegal aliens and "Sanctuary States".
You just made a joke about it.Stealing = Using for today's Leftist Socialist

Business can't be that grim if you immediately throw an
I wonder if they've considered making the wall out of poison tacos.
Hey, as long as it's not you or one of your loved ones...who cares right?You just made a joke about it.

They should make the wall out of average American women
None would dare get near . Link them up like human centipede
You're the one with the jokes.
Is business grim or isn't it?
So they feel like they need razor wire to protect their homes from all these great people that are trying to cross? And somehow because the United States wants to put up borders that's racist and inhumane?
Where did they say they were protecting themselves from refugees?
Where did I use the word refugees?
Are refugees somehow not included in your "all these great people that are trying to cross"?
Make yourself clear.
I clearly did not say "refugees".
I asked you to make yourself clear.
Do you include refugees when you say"all these great people that are trying to cross"?
Yes or no.
