Original Note:
The floating border wall does not contain circular saws but serrated metal plates, which aim to deter crossings due to being difficult and potentially dangerous to climb over. This deterrent is being installed in a hope that it will encourage the use of safe asylum routes. https://www.texasstandard.org/stories/abbott-rio-grande-buoys-eagle-pass-operation-lone-star-migrants-border-texas/
