    How many Marksmen would it take to cover the border with a two man team every 500 to 600 yds or so (shorter if terrain visibility is an issue)?
    Using rubber tipped bullets like the 143gr ELD :)

    With a border of 1,954 miles (3,439,040 yards), it would take 13,756 marksmen with two every 500 yards. It would take 11,463 marksmen with two every 600 yards. If I did my ciphering correctly.
     
    Let's face it,this is not really a humanitarian issue..

    The real truth is this..and they have massive amounts of it

    Oh well.
    That's a bunch.
    Would have to use some volunteers to fill in the gap.

    Using the 'Rubber Tipped bullets' should make the libs happy though.
     
    just put a clay-more every 10 yards, its cheaper
    They'd just send a couple kids across to clear a path.

    "single file kids. If you hear a loud noise don't worry, the path is now safe"

    As far as the South American oil, I bet we have people ready to help them pump it out. We're good at that.
     
    I think Russia is backing away as the mil support for Maduro falls.
     
    1.3+ or - million in production per day.you have to wonder how much more can be pulled out if China,Russia or even the US gets in there.


    Im guessing Guaido will be a Trump fan if he takes office officially.

    I read a story that Trump cock blocked Canada and an organization of central American states that were just about to pledge support for Guaido.

    The article kind of seemed like more Trump bashing though. Even when he does right its wrong.
     
    OAS and Canada can do what they want, but big daddy USA speaks then makes it so.

    Yes the article was trying to indicate the affair was another example of how under Trump the US has lost its position of dominance in the world and we have been replaced by the likes of Justin Bibeaus Canada brokering alliances to effect change in the world.

    Well if that's the case why was no one paying attention to Le Justin's efforts until Trump exited the shitter, with a fuckbook in hand, and like Ceasar at the Colliseum said "Gaido" and signaled a thumbs up.

    The Lima group which has Canada and most of Latin America has thrown their support behind Guaido.

    China and Russia are both already there heavily involved in the petroleum as well as mining of precious minerals. Cuba is there also providing "Doctors" and "Teachers". All 3 have had a presence for years now.

    Yes and they have been working on getting rid of Maduro for a while. Trump jumping in stole their thunder.

    Of course they have.

    Their influence is all that kept the house of cards from toppling much sooner.

    They are not there as allies though they are taking plunder.

    China even worse is building shit under one road, one belt as its their contention that if they build it, its sovereign Chinese territory.
     
    There are no Canadians that I know that support Canada's Punk Martinet. Myself and all my friends can hardly wait until the elections this year, in the hopes of FIXING this Country's fuck-ups.

    And there is now a LOT to fix. To which, a lot of us share ya'lls sentiments towards illegals.

    Because of Trumps declaration that there will be no socialism in the United States we now have the Never Trump establishment Ministry of Truth media now openly defending socialism and calling it "benign", "just ensuring care of the elderly".

    They are ignoring the fall of Maduro pretty much because their hearts are broken.

    This is so fucking bizarre and gross.
     
    I dot tink they been working toward getting rid of anyone, I think they have all been jockeying to partake in the rape of that country's wealth and exploit its slaves.... if they had any altruism they would have armed and supported the internal dissenters over the past 6 years that I know about of their existence... Not a one lifted a finger, including any repub or democrat here in the USA.....

    Until Trump

    Place them every 2k.
    1k of coverage left and right.
    1954 miles x 5280 = 10317120feet / 3 = 3439040 yards / 2000y = 1719.5 men every 2k yards
    Doable...

    Perhaps Trump should come out in favor of hard line communism, so the Anti - Trumpers can then extol the virtues of Liberty and Free Markets. Wouldn't the be an interesting day in America. Bernie has gone silent on socialism after pointing to Venezuela as a shining example of how well it works. AOC gets elected vouching for socialism even as Venezuela's economy collapses further and its people starve. Not that the other side is the answer but who votes for these idiots?

    You can't see that far due to the terrain

    Mine the border and build a wall. This isn't complicated.
    Barb wire fence, then massive heavily populated minefield. Then real big hardened wall
     
    Giving China and Russia military assets in our hemisphere quickly moves to being our problems if we’re not careful. And considering the natural resources going to our sworn enemies while we ring our hands over cow flatulance could be problematic.
    China cannot project here . First time they fuck around make sure that they understand that . Russia wants business and money not war . War in the not to distant past brought them financially to their effin knees . They do not want a repeat . The Chinese will have oil from someone so not an issue as long as they don't try to project . The US does not need to swing it's dick at everything that moves . Only when nescessary .

    Are you saying Red Dawn is realistic? :p

    You guys are joking but world change is upon us. No one will ever get all the guns out of the hands of the good men and women in this nation. Maybe out of some of the cities, but not the entire nation. That is certain and can be taken to the bank.

    That is why the rooskies and thier islamic cohorts will eventually come at us likely down highway 11 out of Prudhoe Bay AK. The Good Book I read told me they aren't going to get very far.
     
    I will turn my attention to domestic enemies...

    Agreed that our biggest threats are from within. If left unchecked they will weaken us until the temptation to our enemies is just too much. Can you imagine what would happen in 10 years if the political correctness and stupidity continue at current rate? The Russians and Chinese (along with many other parts of the world) are learning to struggle and compete their way to the top while we worry about our feelings and become soggier snowflakes.

    Those rooskies ain't out even though everyone thinks they are somewhat reformed. I'm talkin more about the movers and shakers over there than the regular people. If you check their parliament building you might quickly note that the old hammer and sickle is still proudly displayed.

    The domestic turds here, the same ones that would see our nation fall cry that trump is colluding with the russians. Well it is them that are being led by the same financiers that give the russians their marching orders. Hard to say where the commander in chief is at this point as he may be legitimately giving them static. I sure hope so, on the other hand you never know. Have to see where that plays out.
