She had to be cut out of the wire and miscarried soon after.

Our only options are open borders and razer-wire-wrapped barrels in the river?

No, you're options are travel legally or suffer the consequences of trying to do so illegally. Did a border patrol agent karate kick her into the wire? What forced that human being to travel through it? Their own decisions.

The consequences are arrest, jail and deportation. Not losing your baby after getting sliced open by razor wire. You sound like a horribly inhumane person.

You feel these are the appropriate consequences? Getting sliced open? Something is very broken with your mental health.
