  • There's a small stretch of soil north of the Rio Grande river that's still part of the United States, but exists below the Mexican border wall. The Atlantic went inside this no-man’s-land to uncover what life is like in a place that feels like not-quite America, but not-quite Mexico.

    Does the Border Patrol have a corruption problem? Check out our story here: bit.ly/NoManToCorruption

      No, the Democrats are the corruption problem! The wall will help along with 5000 new border control agents! The Democrats wanted a wall in 2006 and during the time Obama was the President but now they try and condemn Trump for during what they couldn’t do! I grew up in the Rio Grande Valley and I’m Hispanic and I have never seen the drug and human trafficking as bad as it is. We need the wall, period !!!!

    What happened to Brownsville, nearly got replicated by the experience of another border town in California, Calexico. Fortunately, Mexicali, a Baja metropolis of nearly two million still sends a vastly diminished trickle of people across the border for trade, just enough to keep some commerce alive, but not at the boomtown levels Calexico experienced back in the 1960's and early 1970's before Nixon and the federal bureaucrats went insane, blockaded Baja's crown jewel border city, and slowed down commerce to a snail's pace. As a result, Calexico, once a booming town has seen commercial real estate plummet and owns a snail economy... The Calexico-Mexicali border is a case study of how to destroy a region's economy with a checkpoint that slows down traffic, and in 110 degree weather during the summer months, that's no picnic. Nothing like enacting laws whose devastating consequences faraway law makers will never suffer. Be well.

    Will a wall work, obviously not in all situations, they will find ways to scale and overcome these obstacles. The wall would have to be more reinforced and larger, harder to scale without the aid of certain tools, however it may slow down and make it more difficult for those seeking to cross. It may deter some routes that were previously accessed, and incorporated with new patrolmen in certain higher trafficked areas it may be beneficial. It may be flawed and costly, but I believe overall it will impede their travel and help equip those guarding the borders.

      I agree with a properly constructed wall, but isn't a border wall the same thing? If you think of the bigger picture, the whole country becomes a prison. Unless you are authorized, you can't get in or out. Only difference is the ceiling is "free standing." So you are given the illusion that you aren't in prison. Again, I support the wall if constructed properly. But, conceptually a prison is a prison. Even if the ceiling is free standing or open. If you can't come in or leave without authorization, you are still in a "prison." That non existent ceiling merely gives you hope of escape. (Metaphorically and conceptually of course.)

      Sir, I’m just going by the statistics released by Border Patrol, the FBI and the findings of the Senate Intelligence Committee.
      Personally, I am not at the border, nor do I work in a field privy to such information.
      I’m just going by information that has been released from our government for more than a decade.
      Do we follow the word of numerous government entities or the findings of one man that has been proven to be dishonest in his personal and business lives?

      someone has to make it, someone else to move it out to the middle of nowhere, someone has to then build it, that takes a lot of fucking people, labor, trucks, fuel, cement, steel, tools, you got to prep the land, have a digging crew, cement crew, fence crew, driving crew, security. supplies. it adds up real quick. thats why it looks the way it does. 6.5 million is cheap in US construction spending.
