Re: The Trump Border Wall Saga
[QUOTE=Akrazotile]Every year I hear stories on the news about groups of illegals dying in the back of trucks as theyre smuggled in through 110 degree weather like cattle.
It also may be so that fewer people simply volunteer such information over the last decade.
Even if it hs declined, it doesnt matter what is happening right at this moment. It’s a big picture issue. For our own safety and economic stability we have to be in control of the country’s border. Anything can happen in the future.
Youre just not intelligent enough to stray from the mainstream narrative. Youre afraid to be called a racist, just like they want. Youre filled with a phony superiority for taking an auto-pilot opposite stance to whatever Trump says, just like they want.
Youre a try hard. A dumb sheep, a beta, and a POSER. Just like they want.[/QUOTE]
There are better measures than a physical 30ft tall wall, which actually would not be difficult to circumvent.. More importantly, most illegal people enter the US through visa overstays or are smuggled in illegally through legal ports of entry (water port or in a car/truck). Most don't walk across the border.

Thats true, which is why Im personally ambivalent on the wall. If it goes up, so what, if it doesnt, so what.
Why dont you speak up about California offering driver licenses and other benefits to illegals? Or the lack of punishment for people who sneak in again multiple times after deportation? If you simply oppose the wall, then PIPE UP about alternative measures.
But youre scared to do it. And moreover it just doesnt occur to you to suggest anything outside the conditioning youve accepted.Ive never heard you suggest anything in any topic that is not standard left wing dogma. You are dogmatic. You only repeat what your group approves. On EVERY subject.
It’s so obvious from the outside but I dont think you see it for yourself.

[QUOTE=bladefd]There were other posts I made, but it won't let me search my old posts -- I had to go page by page for 'wall' threads.. ISH is outdated and seems we are locked out from searching posts we made in past. No search box either that actually works..[/QUOTE]
A bunch of threads were deleted recently as well. I recall Jeff noting that at some point things would be updated.
Re: The Trump Border Wall Saga
I wonder if all the litigation occurred when China built their wall :confusedshrug:
55 miles 1.6 billion or 8 billion it doesn't matter -
The wall has to run the whole length of the border to be effective.
If it is done , then security can cover the other side , and less illegal people would be in our country.
I agree with trump's idea to eradicate people that are illegal in our country , and letting everyone go thru the process of becoming legal citizens.
Our country is swarming with people , where I live I would see 1 car for 20 miles , now we have strings of cars 40 long in 1 mile stretch's.
Soon our county, state and federal lands will have to be made available for the abundance of people living in our country.

When did China build their wall, and how much did it cost them?

First... "you're" not "your."
Second... no, I'm not in high school.
Third... It was a rhetorical response so as to point out the absurdity of the link between the Great Wall and border structures between the US and Mexico. There are decent arguments to be had for a wall along the southern border, but an argument that includes the Great Wall of China isn't one of them. :confusedshrug:

How do most illegals come into America? Do you think they cross the desert/border on foot?

Lol, hey... when someone condescends with "open a book and read history," their takedown needs to at least be grammatically accurate. :confusedshrug:
