It will stop those with no resources. It will put the "coyotes" out of business.

It will stop people from dragging their children hundreds of miles on foot.

It will lower border patrol costs.

It will stop people from coming across with zero screening.

It will certainly ease illegal immigration through Mexico as well.



One thing I always wonder about walls, do they keep people out, or people in. Let's hope there is never a day that Americans find out..

The majority of drugs also do not come over the border in Mexico. Anyone, who honestly thinks the drugs that do come across the Mexican border, will stop because of a wall, is delusional.

A wall is a cheaper, more permanent alternative.


That is why so many don't want it.



How is the wall cheaper?
Blowing # up is cheap than building a wall dude.

Right now that may be true, but things can change very quickly.

Nobody, and I mean nobody thought the POTUS would be tweeting either....

things change...

If Angela lives a normal life-span because the heroin that caused Billy to accidently kill her, didn't make it to America, the Wall WORKED.

If Brad lives a normal life-span because Chavez didn't sneak into the country, drive drunk, and kill him at an intersection, the Wall WORKED.

Why are you so afraid of the wall?

Is it because the media has conditioned you to think that it is bad?

All these people afraid of a wall don't think twice when they have to purchase a VISA to leave this country and enter another one...


If Chuckie Schumer and the rest of the Progs are so against having a wall than ask them why did THEY build a wall for us from leaving...

No, it absolutely will not! Something Fox doesn't talk about, is the fact most illegals, in the United States, did not cross the border in Mexico.


Do you have a link to back up this statement?

Will the wall stop illegals? Not as sharply as a thousand mile border of claymore mines. Im pretty sure a wall is more effective than the other options on the table right now.

I got an idea. All you Progs who believe in open borders? Why don't you try to leave this country without the proper papers. Don't you feel duped not being allowed to leave yet supporting foreigners who just want to stroll on in with your blessings? Wake the hell up. I have found it suspicious and tyrannical for years that my government won't allow me to leave unless I have the proper papers, yet ya'll are too blind to see it.

For liberals and others who want open borders there will always be some lame argument against the wall.

The argument that there are better and/or cheaper options is BS.

If you want open borders you will also be against any other measures as well.

Do you realize that no one on the MSM or in DC has explained WHY the wall is dumb?


All I've seen is, "Orange Man Bad, Wall Bad".

No science, no explanation, no cost analysis, no data.

Just "Orange Man Bad, Wall Bad".

Listen to Chuck Schumer and Barack Obama demanding STRONG southern border security. 1min45sec video.

I don't doubt it, I can't remember where they did this but in some busy town they removed all traffic lights, pedestrian crossings and stuff, it actually reduced accidents and people getting run over as people were more aware of their surroundings and gave way to each other.

Because my idea is better damnit!

I don’t give two poops about those poop heads that are stationed in DC.

Just so you know I have already had a full glass of eggnog and have no plans on leaving my couch.
