Mexico USA border seems to a pretty strong example of a contemporary wall. Imagine what would happen if it was completely removed?


Border wall is nothing new and not that rare. They are often used to stop illegal immigrants. Just an example:

The Berlin Wall was to stop people escaping. The US border Wall is to stop people coming in.


You mean all 700 miles of it along 2000 miles of border? I would guess nothing at all would change. No comparison to the German wall with minefields, self shooting devices, etc.
