Now, exactly why would the country of Chile care if we build a fence or not? because, of course, they want their citizens to be able to sneak into our country illegally. There is no other reason whatsoever.
Santiago, Chile (AHN) - Chile has joined the growing number of nations against the construction of a wall along the U.S.-Mexico border. The Chilean Senate passed a resolution formally protesting the continued building of a wall on the border, saying it is an insult to Latin American countries.
Unbelievable; flippin' unbelievable.........
What right does Chile have in telling us to not secure our borders? That childish attitude is an insult against the USA.
Comparing our border fence to the Berlin Wall is asinine to say the least; the German people on both sides of said Wall hated it. Us Americans have little or no heartburn in sealing off that dysfunctional, de facto lawless nation S of the Rio Grande.

Do you recall hearing much criticism of China--or Russia--or Pakistan---or Mexico? Ever wonder WHY? (HINT-It's not because these places are 'better' than us--it's because, when you criticize these places, you are WASTING YOUR BREATH---the fact is, that they just don't CARE what you, or anyone else, thinks of them)
We DO care, and we'll listen. That's why we're so often criticized, for any number of reasons, both good and 'silly'....
By the way, I've traveled extensively from one end of Chile to the other. It's a beautiful place, with interesting people. But it has no more business criticizing our relations with Mexico than does any OTHER country. But they DID criticize us--- and we 'listened'---and now we're busy discussing it. Apparently, the criticism worked...
