A wall just attracts graffiti artists. And it is easily defeated by a ladder or even a knotted rope. Trump’s wall is a fool’s vanity project. The wall and Trump should be treated with truck loads of contempt.

And yet when you ask those who patrol and guard the border they seem to be all for one. Maybe they forgot to consult you.Originally posted by firstfloor View Post

A wall, or physical barrier, will certainly slow them down and allow border patrol a better chance at apprehending them. Also, it leaves no doubt that they committed - on purpose - an illegal act. They can't say "well, gosh, we didn't know the border was right there!*"Originally posted by rogue06 View Post
*in many places, there's no real indication that the border is there -- not like there's a white line painted in the dirt.The first to state his case seems right until another comes and cross-examines him.Comment

If it's a right wing meme - I call it for what it is. You are free to call that "handwaving" if you wish. It makes little difference to me. When someone does not have the data to back up their positions - I point it out.Originally posted by rogue06 View PostThe ultimate weakness of violence is that it is a descending spiral begetting the very thing it seeks to destroy...returning violence for violence multiplies violence, adding deeper darkness to a night already devoid of stars.

But for you we've seen on countless instances that a right wing meme is nothing more than something you disagree with and don't want to hear so you simply dismiss it. That is your track record.Originally posted by carpedm9587 View Post

Your opinion is duly noted. I make an effort to back up my positions with stats and data drawn from multiple sources. You are free to point out when and where I have not. Otherwise...Originally posted by rogue06 View Post
But a meme is a meme is a meme - it's a statement or claim or theme broadly disseminated but rarely (if ever) founded on data. When I see them - I call them.
Correct. What else should one do with a groundless claim?Originally posted by rogue06 View PostUsually by merely calling it a right wing meme and hand waving it off

Once again you make an excellent point. Unfortunately, not all graffiti artists are as talented as Banksy.Originally posted by Cow Poke View Post“I think God, in creating man, somewhat overestimated his ability.” ― Oscar Wilde

Can I throw this in your face the next time you dismiss a Breitbart article?Originally posted by carpedm9587 View PostYou can always count on conservatives to reject a thought because it comes from a source they don't like.
Some may call me foolish, and some may call me odd
But I'd rather be a fool in the eyes of man
Than a fool in the eyes of God

So when you catch me rejecting a thought because it is in Breitbart - by all means you can "throw it in my face." I have never done that, to my knowledge, and I don't plan to start.Originally posted by Mountain Man View PostThe ultimate weakness of violence is that it is a descending spiral begetting the very thing it seeks to destroy...returning violence for violence multiplies violence, adding deeper darkness to a night already devoid of stars.
