Isn't declaring a national emergency the same as declaring martial law?

I have a fence around my back yard. It has not saved any lives, but keeps the dog from running away.

 

That's obvious.

 

You are alive. How do you know your fence has not deterred a criminal act ?? Are you Jim Acosta ??

 

Pentagon Refuses to say Border wall is necessary or a national emergency.​

Thank God the President who's job it is to protect US citizens cares.

What's is manufactured about the grief of a parent who has lost a child because an illegal alien killed him/her ?? To suggest that is manufactured is disgusting.

 

The GOP has never had 60 votes in the Senate, a majority in the house, and the Presidency. And why is it again that walls don't work ??

 

That judgment is the responsibility of the Executive Branch. The DOD budget is controlled by the President.

 

It's not the Pentagons job to say anything.

Perhaps the Progressives running Rawstory should let their audience know that, but then that would defeat Rawstory's reason for existence.

 

You are alive. Must be thanks to ACA, or gun control laws. How do you know it's not?

Listen to yourself.

 

It will be attempted to be used by the Democrats regardless. The argument that the wall saves the lives of US citizens is substantiated by global data.

 

You just made my argument. Thanks,

 

Because people will pass drugs through the slats in the wall. Because people bring drugs through legal ports of entry. Because people climb over the walls. Because people dig tunnels under the walls. Because people go around the walls. Because people take boats, cars, trains and airplanes.

 

No. It shows you are asking people to prove a negative, which is an argument of ignorance.

 

You again continue to make the case in support of walls without knowing it.

 

The entire global history of border walls clearly prove that they save lives. That is a fact based argument.

 

LOL!

There’s also no evidence that eating chocolate dipped strawberries won’t save lives. None in the history of the world!

Why will Bonespurs’ 55 miles of wall “save lives”?

 

It’s an opinion, apparently with no support. Your trumpian approach of repeating yourself doesn’t “prove” it to be true.

 

Enjoy your moment of zen.

 

Please grace us with an example where walls have not saved lives ??

 

Everybody should know that by comparing trump to hitler. They are like two peas in a pod.

 

Hilarious.

 

Please stop. The comedy is too much.

 

If you can't take the heat then get out of the kitchen.

 

Were you scared when Obama did it?

 

I just hope there is video games in the camps!
