                W:owner = "[usr.key]"      //makes the walls owner the usr's key.

Because it is an obj, and Click() refers to the object, you should be using usr here.

[Note: usr is o.k. here, but it's not the best soltuion, because there are a few usr safe procs, and Click() is one of them]

If you ever run into a jam like this, simply do something like this.

world<<"[src] is src."
world<<"[usr] is the usr."

This usually helps me fix any of those confusing things that happen.

This is your fixed code, because src refers to the OBJECT, you should use usr.
obj
    Wall
        name = "Red_Wall"
        icon = 'Obj.dmi'
        icon_state = "Wall"
        density = 0
        opacity = 0
        var/owner = ""
        Click()
            if(usr.Nobuild())//Changed to usr.
                var/W = new/obj/Wall(usr.loc)      //makes a wall in the usr's loc.
                W:owner = "[usr.key]"      //makes the walls owner the usr's key.
