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

It was hidden barbed wire. How are you not processing that?

The "hidden" claim is only by an anonymous witness reported by a bias source. Like even if the barbwire was hidden, what is the point of the article? That actually our border policy is fine, if only the barbwire fences were painted with high-vis?

Would you feel bad if they were high-vis? Not as many people would hurt themselves.
