Blocks all questions
Stone walls are barriers made by stacking stones without mortar, common in rural landscapes where farmers cleared fields and needed boundaries.
The phrase extends to any solid, unyielding barrier.
To stonewall is to obstruct or refuse to cooperate, especially by giving evasive answers: The witness stonewalled the committee for hours.
