Globalist want anything but a physical barrier or border. They know anyone who steps foot here, they can find a reason he/she can stay.
The same way the brick wall around my neighbor's pool kept us from swimming uninvited when we were kids. You and yours couldn't possibly be a vapid as you appear to be due to political posturing on this issue. Maybe they will suit kids up in human cannonball suits and shoot them over, though. Ever consider dropping the act and just admitting that you are hoping a loose Southern Border will continue to breed more dependent underclass Democrat votes and a permanent wall can't be as easily "rolled back" and outright ignored as Democrat immigration lies in the past? Oh, wait, I forgot, you are obviously one of "those" posters given your post history. Who knows what your actual political beliefs are in light of everything you post comes from a distributed talking points list from the central office? Finally, as stated in other threads and always ignored by you insincere lot, the primary deterrent of the Wall is not physical but legal. Unlike our "winkwinknudgenudge" immigration laws, damage of federal property > $100 carries $250k fine, 10 year prison sentences, or both per count, and that will have a drastic chilling effect on the coyote, "activist" and drug trades that profit from low or no border security in the status quo.
Your swimming pool is an attractive nuisance which can be secured with about 100 feet of fence. A several thousand square mile desert is not an attractive nuisance.
I was referring to the abusive 'parents' who either sexually abuse them, or send them on the 'trek' so that we'd have to take them in. Our compassion in the Simpson bill of 1985, led to today's tragedies. True compassion as it regards the US Borders, is harsh reinforcement.
Well, my neighbor didn't have a multitrillion dollar federal budget either, and the "first week of law school" attractive nuisance jargon is utterly irrelevant.
It is if its a path to free healthcare, education, housing, food, etc. Plenty of illegals die there, trying to come to the US because of democrat policies.
I'd tie this into the pro-feminist narrative, but I feel like that'd be too distasteful. This is more of a national/humanitarian emergency as POTUS Trump pointed out. This isn't politics.
perhaps the numbers are as 'trivial' as you state BECAUSE the majority get across un-noticed from the lack of a wall do you have any stats on the exact number of illegal crossings that aren't on the record? here's a hint: subtract the 'trivial' numbers you have from the census reports of up to 20 million illegals already present in the usa...
The only possible way that "substraction" is an even remotely viable method of guessing how many illegals cross unaccounted would be if you completely forget that nearly half of all of those illegal entries are people who came here on temporary VISAs, legally, and then stayed too long. And then you'd also have to intentionally forget that there are planes, boats, and a Northern border from which millions of illegal immigrants enter this country.
Trump said the border was secured, but now he wants to back track and lie to us so he can get his vanity project rolling.
It is entirely relevant when you try to raise the fence around a neighborhood swimming pool as a ****ing analogy for the 2000 mile long southern border.
Absolutely. On the feminist note, the "congresswoman of peace" just said allah is a "she". That would be both blasphemy (punishable by death in islam) and an awkward attempt to link islam with feminism.
As one poster pointed out 'for NOW'. It's only secure as much as we have it enforced by the military. You know, Obama crying about them doing the job that historically, they're meant to do. But we can't have them there forever, so we need a long term solution.
The wall is going up. Ironically dems opposed 5 billion, but with a declaration of national emergency he can spend 100 billion.
That hypocrisy though... Horrible things are happening to a lot of females, many underage. There's a clear link between what's happening to these girls and our lax immigration/border control. Yet these females appear to be rather low on the progressive totem pole. Sacrafices must be made for the "greater good", I guess?
A wall is a deterrent. Do you think over 300 at a time will be climbing over a wall at one point at the wall or do you think it is a deterrent that gives the Border Patrol time to intercept instead of having to range through dangerous territory a couple of men at a time to round up over 300 people?
No, as a matter of fact, common law "attractive nuisance" doctrine is not even remotely relevant to your question, posted to me in the thread, of how and whether a Southern Border Wall would deter the entry of 60,000 unaccompanied children per year. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Attractive_nuisance_doctrine I -could- even claim, in the same vein of low-score Bar Exam answers, that attractive nuisance doctrine is equitable grounds -requiring- the Wall based on the ancient public policy of owners being responsible for unmarked, unbounded hazards that may serve to attract children otherwise, but that would make me as silly as you.
and the point being... it's an unknown quantity, ergo we know there is a problem with illegal entry, so why not secure at least one border for now, gotta start somehwere, and i see no better place to start than the known drug/human trafficker highway known as our southern border... a no-brainer considering the high costs associated with drugs in this country...
