I support an actual real border barrier...just like nations have.

I support enforcing our immigration laws(at the border).

Sadly we do not have that.

And parts of the South and SW US weren't once part of Mexico! Right? Except -- the Spaniards went all the way up to Vancouver, the Brits help portions of the upper Midwest and Northeast. Gosh, I wonder... where did those states with the Spanish names get their Spanish names? It's a mystery I suppose, since apparently ALL Americans descend from the original BRITISH, founding fathers. Or something.

Thanks for the info dude!
Wow..way to stretch it to make your incorrect post seem "correct" all along.

Yes, at creating a very bad political environment and tearing apart families.

I didn't order the fence but I help pay for something that was ordered, which the fence is better then nothing. Then read a billion in tax money was wasted. If all they could hope for was a fence from the gov., it was better then the nothing but they couldn't even get that.

LOL.

Yeah 'cause the fences that divide our border cities work so very well. And they are heavily patrolled. They even have agents on mountain bikes in those areas, yet they just continue to come right through those fences. Sure... some get caught, but many more make it through. I used to have to occasionally stop my car, on the border highway in El Paso, so as not to run them over as they dashed across the highway after just coming through gaping holes in the fence.

But yeah, lets pin our hopes on a fence in remote areas too, where there will be even less resistance to them coming right through.

Be realistic, we can't militarize that entire border. It would bankrupt us and accomplish very little other than false peace-of-mind for people who cannot accept reality.
