God are we still on this fictional "border crisis"? The whole "build the wall" idea is so utterly asinine. Let's focus on the real issues.

And eventually they have kids who can vote, or they get amnestied and get to vote themselves in addition to their kids.

Of course, those people cheat their neighbors, and I oppose it. I support the use of e-verify and other measures to address the problem.

A small amount of arsenic is still toxic.

No one should be forced to pay for anything without their consent.

Although.... perhaps a tad incredulous at an American suggesting it's "arrogant" to express an opinion as to how a foreign country might be run; now that was sublime right there.

Excellent, now why won't both parties come to an agreement to enact these things?

Trumplings far from the border, parroting tRump's lies about "a border crisis!"

I've lived within easy walking distance of the border for over 35 years.

Your failed attempts at pretending to be "informed" are pathetic.

but amusing.

LOL! You are not "calm" as you've been ranting away in this thread

Yes, it is "arrogant" of you as you don't live here.

I don't tell Canadians how to run their country. Do you know why that is? It's because I don't live there and as a result, I can't say what day-to-day life is like there. I will read articles about Canada and will lurk in the comment section as it is interesting to see how the locals feel about the issues. However, I will only lurk. It would be awfully presumptuous for me to tell Canadians what to do, think or say.

In what alternate universe is there no "border crisis"? Do tell. Because in this universe, there is a "border crisis" on the US/Mexico border.
