A mass majority of the drug and human trafficking from mexico is done through tunnels. The shit we catch on the surface is a drop in the bucket. The big hauls happen underground, right below border patrols feet. The wall won't do shit unless we get some Ground Penetrating Radar(GPR) along the entire border…pics related, all seized from tunnels.
I agree, but unless they find and close the tunnels will keep pouring right into our country. Drugs and people 24/7…undetected.
Wouldn't be surprised. The cartels have billions in cash to burn through. However, they build them indoors…google earth wont help you in this situation…pics related. They have hundreds of them and move hundreds of tons through hundreds of tunnels…10k would get you a 1 way ticket to anywhere you wanna go in the states. Unless POTUS locates and destroys all of the tunnels, the wall is just for show. It will stop people, but wont scratch the surface on the drug trafficking.

Interesting:
The system relies on a variety of sensors to locate the subterranean passages, though the exact nature of the project remains classified.
“This is a system that has no equal in the world, which has led to a turning point in the campaign to thwart the tunnel threat,” the ministry said.
Liberman lauded the program, saying it took a “strategic weapon” away from the Hamas terrorist organization, the main digger of these attack tunnels.
“The tunnel detection project is based on technology that is unique in the world, which is practically science fiction. Thanks to the minds that are sitting here… we have taken from Hamas its strategic weapon, in which it has invested most of its rearmament budget: hundreds of millions of dollars,” the defense minister said.
“Attack tunnels have become burial tunnels,” Liberman added.
Anti wall? Fuck off with that. The wall is a must, stopping the tunnels is a must as well.
>It’s easy for spy satellites to see trucks moving earth.
are you fucking retarded…have our spy satellites stopped the hundreds of tunnels that have already been dug?
The GPR would have to go deep. To the bedrock. Those motherfuckers have unlimited budgets. They will dig as deep and as far as necessary to fill the demand here in the states. They have an unlimited labor force as well.
It's too late for that…too many are already hooked, and it's too easy to get any drug you want…the only chance we have is with Trumps wall, and finding all of those tunnels.
224: The number of tunnels unearthed at the U.S.-Mexico border, 1990–2016
How many do you think they have not found or have been dug since? The heavy loads come through those tunnels.
Really? Show it to me…current GPR goes max 40ft deep, and they get too many false targets.
>* What the Limits Are: This method does not work well in moist mediums like clay and rarely penetrates deeper than 40 ft. Officials say that false alarms even at shallow depths waste time and money.
