Why don't you tell us about it several more times? That'll make it less idiotic and more convincing, for sure."I hate him passionately", he's "a demonic force" - Tucker Carlson, in private, on Donald Trump
"Every line of serious work that I have written since 1936 has been written, directly or indirectly, against totalitarianism and for democratic socialism" - George Orwell
"[Capitalism] as it exists today is, in my opinion, the real source of evils. I am convinced there is only one way to eliminate these grave evils, namely through the establishment of a socialist economy" - Albert Einstein

But building the Great Wall of Texas is just plain stupid.
Walls with high tech sensors can work, like Israel shows!! But no, because some small number of people might take trouble to try to get through all of it, it will be failure!!!

I wouldn't be surprised if you haven't heard about this because the President's successes go largely unreported by the liberal media. I suppose the logic here is that if low-information voters don't know about it, then it didn't happen.

Originally posted by Bill the Cat View PostIt's 14 miles long, so I'm sure they could. But that's the point. Make it long enough, and there won't be an "around" to go. They would have to go into the ocean or the gulf, and both of those can be patrolled by the Coast Guard rather easily.
How about people landing with planes?

Originally posted by Leonhard View PostThat's the point though, right now they're just going around as its more convenient, but what's the evidence that they would try to go over or under if they had no other choice? I'm not sure you can make the point that the wall deter immigration, and then at the same time not be able to show that it actually does it rather than simply making them do it elsewhere.

Quite a bit of the illegal immigration is from points farther south than Mexico; the country's just a convenient conduit.Veritas vos Liberabit<>< Learn Greek <>< Look here for an Orthodox Church in America<><Ancient Faith Radio
