Historically border walls works. As much as I am not a fan of china. Just look at the great wall of china and other countries who have build border walls.


Is not rocket scientiest. Border walls protect a country from terrorism, smuggling, illegal immigration and other threats. Why do people have fences around their house, locked your door , have camera security because you dont want any intruder coming in to your house.... this is the same thing.


Is better to do something than just letting people freely passes. We can't even support our own veterans, homeless , etc and yet we are letting illegal come in left and right.

Walls have worked for centuries and one at the Border would work as well BUT there has to be a will in DC to actually man and defend that wall. A wall funnels people to check points. We all do this when we go to a concert or amusement park. We follow the wall/ fence until we get to the entrance and ticket booth. WHY are we allowing Illegal Aliens to skip the entrance and avoid paying the entry fee???


BUILD the WALL.

Existing immigration laws work perfectly when enforced. Laws that aren’t enforced don’t need reform. That’s just leftist garbage.

The “current need” is to lock up politicians that don’t do their part to enforce existing laws. Sanctuary city democrat mayors need to be locked up immediately. A 10 year minimum prison sentence would do wonders for illegal alien numbers.

Exactly. Is better to do something than nothing.

We don't need a physical wall. Armed drones can beat back this invasion of peasants.
