‘It’s Not a Wall,’ but Steel Slats and Barbed Wire Roil a Border Town
CALEXICO, Calif. — The barbed wire overhead evokes danger and violence, but Maritza Hurtado cannot take it seriously. When the sharp coils were placed on top of the old border fence several months ago, running right along the main boulevard, she chalked it up to political propaganda from a White House that does not understand life along the Southwest frontier.
      “This is not a war zone,” Ms. Hurtado said from her tax and immigration consulting office in downtown Calexico, from which she can peer into Mexico. “I’ve had a business here for 30 years and we’ve never needed the barbed wire. Why now? To me, it feels as if I’m enclosed.”

  1. Never seen and Republicans so united on an issue as they are on the Humanitarian Crisis & Security on our Southern Border. If we create a Wall or Barrier which prevents Criminals and Drugs from flowing into our Country, Crime will go down by record numbers!
  2. United against every one who actually has responsibility on the border, all of whom think it is not a good idea. But hey, these people live with it, while you Republican, in your Washington bubble think you know best. End the shutdown NOW. Pay your troops.
