Trump is absolutely correct in that we need to build a wall and step up border enforcement to keep the illegals out. Have a read of this ...

Drunk-driving illegal immigrant who killed straight-A college student is on the run* | Daily Mail Online

Add in the drug trafficking that is killing America's youth and the number of illegals freeloading off the American government and you'd have to be blind to see that what we have now is NOT WORKING.

Yes, it should have been built a long time ago. However, we all know that Obama isn't going to let it happen.

you dont build a wall over something like that when your own citizens kill enough people drunk driving already.

there are better reasons.

Although it doesn't make the mainstream media, there are constant incidents like the OP has linked in. I could probably bring in 2 or 3 stories a day if I was fishing for them. And, yes, we have criminals also and that is one reason we don't need to import anymore. They do heinous things.

Examples of Serious Crimes by Illegal Aliens

Undocumented immigrant accused of child rape - KXXV-TV News Channel 25 - Central Texas News and Weather for Waco, Temple, Killeen |

Kansas City Mass Murderer Captured in Rural Missouri - Is Mexican Illegal Immigrant Who Was Previously Deported - The Gateway Pundit

Just 3 samples of illegal aliens that came here for a better life for their families.

And, this doesn't even take into account that there is an ISIS camp 8 miles outside of TX: ISIS Camp a Few Miles from Texas, Mexican Authorities Confirm - Judicial Watch

And, of course, the illegal drug traffic: http://www.judicialwatch.org/blog/20...threat-to-u-s/

True, but you keep out illegals who add to the problem. Add up all of the money being spent for illegals in this country and let me know if you're OK with the total. Then have a look at some of the heroin overdose stories in the U.S. and let us know if you're OK with all of the drug coming in through the southern border.

The drug trade will continue to operate just the way it operates today, even after a wall is built. Lots of the heroin comes hidden in vehicles that legally come across at border crossings

And a lot of mules carry in it by crossing the border in places where border patrols are scarce.

He is surrounded by four walls right now and it looks like he will be for a long time. Point being we have enough of our own to deal with we don't need more to pile on.
