"Union that represents Border Patrol agents recently deleted a webpage that said building walls and fences along the border to stop illegal immigration would be “wasting taxpayer money.”

So, this union now agrees that this will not be wasting taxpayer money?


Why else would they delete it?

The Wall will be built, mile by mile.

It is pretty much as common sense would have it. Landowners are begging for The Wall to be built. It has been reported for years that landowners have been harassed and invaded, but now suddenly we are supposed to believe that these landowners don't want The Wall.
You`re supposed to believe they don`t want The Wall because they don`t want The Wall.

The Bottom Line: Walls Work. When it comes to stopping drugs and illegal aliens from crossing our borders, border walls have proven to be extremely effective. Border security relies on a combination of border infrastructure, technology, personnel and partnerships with law enforcement at the state, local, tribal, and federal level. For example, when we installed a border wall in the Yuma Sector, we have seen border apprehensions decrease by 90 percent. In San Diego, we saw on Sunday that dilapidated, decades-old barriers are not sufficient for today’s threat and need to be removed so new – up to 30 foot wall sections can be completed.

Damn the people who actually work the border.....

Some do, some do not perhaps. Those who don't want the wall on their property can just deal with the illegal trespassers, criminals and drug mules who will just funnel right through their lands then. They'll be crying for a wall in no time.

Are you talking about the cheap celebration with the Clemson team?

Did you not see the Big Mac boxes?
