As the U.S. government built its latest stretch of border wall, Mexico made a statement of its own by laying remains of the Berlin Wall a few steps away.

The 3-ton pockmarked, gray concrete slab sits between a bullring, a lighthouse and the border wall, which extends into the Pacific Ocean.

May this be a lesson to build a society that knocks down walls and builds bridges,” reads the inscription below the towering Cold War relic, attributed to Tijuana Mayor Montserrat Caballero and titled, “A World Without Walls.”

    I want to help control the activities of the CIA. Hmm, I know, let’s build a wall, that will certainly stop the CIA. If this was just about the CIA, we wouldn’t be talking about building a wall because of just how stupid that sounds. The CIA can be stopped with a wall? They have the power to smuggle drugs into Mexico, to be sold in the US. You think they are going to let a wall stop them? LOL No, this has never been about stopping the CIA and more about political ideologies and wasting more taxpayer money on NOT the taxpayers.

      I’m pretty sure asylum seekers can even defeat a wall unless ladder technology hasn’t reached their country yet.
