Build the wall.
The 'opposition,' as you so quaintly call it, is over half the country. Ignore them at your own peril.

Besides, Donald Trump still needs workers at the golf course! Those Dominicans have made enough money off of him to build retirement homes in Dominican Republic. I guess he's playing that there 3-D chess you all are always promoting with his following. He'll pretend he wants the wall, but he doesn't really. He's playin' the base. All part of the grand plan.

The left is the enemy of the American taxpaying citizen.
And when people snivel about EVerify, I like to remind them that the two most liberal states in our country won’t utilize it: CA and NY. CA BANS the use of EVerify, in fact. I absolutely support the federally mandated use of it in every state, but as long as the biggest importer of illegals refuses to cooperate, how much good can it do?

Walls work. They aren’t 100% effective; no one method is. But once up, they become an effective bipartisan stopgap measure that cannot be waffled in and out of existence upon every election.

Nope. However, as a strict property rights advocate I sympathize with them and wouldn't shed a tear if they took out a few government goons along the way.

Like I said, I agree with you on many points in principle, but our options right now are (a) wall or (b) no wall.


I'll take option (a).

So is the right.

All taxation is theft and no one has the right to a single cent of my income.

Criminals and those from known terrorist countries certainly aren't looking for jobs either, thus the wall.

Agree. All good points as always OG!

I'll take option (c): 100% absolute property rights and bullets for any government agents who come to seize peoples' land.

I'd say they are the lesser of the two evils. I agree that taxation is theft, but a small amount is OK in order to run the country. But no one should be forced to pay for others children, welfare, education and healthcare.

When an American says "maybe martial law isn't such a bad idea," that worries the eff out of me.

Exactly! ^^^^

Don't you just love it when Canadians tell us how to run our country? They ought to be worrying about their own country and fixing what's wrong in Canada. Oh wait...I forgot. They think Canada is perfect Arrogance at its finest.

The topic is still the threatened closure of the border...
Don't worry. No one is discussing closing the Canadian border. Calm down
