Still don't think we need a wall?

Did you notice, it's a Kusa thread with Breitbart as the only source? With Breitbart being the Pravda of the extreme right, this may not be the most reliable information.

I was pretty much going to post this... Breitbart is wayyyyyyyyy out there

As opposed to a legal inhabitant with an AK?

"Don't worry dear, the person breaking into our home with an AK 47 isn't an illegal immigrant."

You don't even live here dumbass.

Why does that make a difference?

I think stricter gun laws will help better than a wall. Unless you want to put a wall around every house in America because people shoot each other all the time around here.

Wait, I thought the answer was "more guns". Why the fuck is the answer "BUILD A WALL" for this one illegal immigrant who went on a killing spree, and the answer to stop all the other shootings by Americans "MORE GUNS!"

I have an idea: hear me out on this one.

There are about 270 million privately-owned guns in the US.

Let's assume 1) each of these guns weighs approximately 8 lbs (tiny handguns will be balanced out by the occasional bfg) and 2) that the mass is half steel and half aluminum (I know this is wildly imprecise; but stay with me, this is a back-of-the-napkin calculation).

Aluminum is about 170 lbs per cubic foot, and steel is about 480 lbs per cubic foot. This averages out to 325 lbs per cubic foot of gun.

We have 270 million guns, and if each weighs 8 lbs, we have 2,160,000,000 lbs of privately-owned gun in the US. At 325 lbs per cubic foot, this works out to just over 6,646,000 cubic feet of gun. We're not counting ammo, by the way.

The US-Mexico border is 1,954 miles long. The United States Border Patrol has control over 700 of these miles, so we'll only focus on the 1,250 miles they do not have under their control. This may disappoint purists, alas. By now, of course, you see where this is going.

1,250 miles * 5,280 feet per mile = 6,600,000 feet of unsecured US-Mexican border. This means there is almost exactly one cubic foot of gun for every unsecured foot of US-Mexico border.

So, the upshot:

If we melt down all of the privately owned guns in the USA, we can use them to make a US-Mexico border wall of solid metal, 8 feet in height and 1.5 inches thick.

Final conclusion: The US can have its guns, or it can have its wall... but not both.

you can drop the Nobel Peace Prize on the porch out back.

You spoke of crime in your home. Your home has nothing to do with this thread.

We don't need any help with it from illegals.

We need a wall that is guarded by good guys with guns.

False dichotomy. You failed.

All you non-wallers would change your mind if an illegal visited you with an AK.

I hate to break it to you, but we have our very own citizens that do that as well. Where would you like to deport them to? 

Immigration status means nothing when a person *any person* decides to get mental and commit a crime. Or do you think that a country's own citizens should be exempt from the laws? 

Try thinking more. It does less damage than the crap you currently spew.
