unlawful combatants..........sound familiar?
Women and children are "unlawful combatants"?
The term “unlawful combatant” is used to refer to an individual who belongs to an armed group, in a context where either the individual or the group do not fulfil the conditions for combatant status. The term was employed by the administration of President George W. Bush of the United States in its ‘global war on terror’ to describe persons who are, in its view, neither combatants nor civilians but belong to a third category of persons who can be attacked at any time and can be detained indefinitely without trial. It is also sometimes used as a synonym for “unprivileged belligerent”.

If Texas voters are stupid enough to allow billions of their dollars to be spent on a wall that doesn't work, its their problem.

take a 3 month vacation in the middle east. Israel and palestine, to be exact. see if you don't find woman and children with weapons and bombs.

I didn't say they were smart, just that this is what they will push for. Is Florida looking at expanding freedom anytime soon?
The Middle East is not in South America and Mexico.

Thats more of your usual bullshit. Why should a brand new wall have to be "fixed"?

it's only a matter of time. the lack of security that the biden administration provides allows for all kinds of terror suspects, drug cartel people and product, among other heinous criminals...........
You realize there are many points of entry, right?

First you didn't answer my question. No surprise. Second we don't really need the wall if we deal swiftly and severely with anyone we catch entering the country illegally.

Go look it up. I'm not your fucking secretary.
Clearly you have no plan to and I think we build the wall. Then we deal swiftly and severely with anyone caught not entering the country through an official point of entry.
The wall was never meant to be an effective deterrent to illegal immigration. All it was meant to be was a symbol, a "middle finger" to brown people. It's the MAGA/white supremacist way.,

So you build a wall that wont work, and have no fucking idea of how to monitor 2,000+ miles of border.
You aint very bright my dear, cause if you were you might find an easier solution right in Mexico.Ask yourself, why are they're allowing foreigners to travel the length of their country without passports or documentation. If we demand that Mexico turn away those people at Mexicos southern borders, many of our problems will disappear.
Use your fucking brain on something that will work, not a wall.
Good. Better their money than ours. It's a win-win! At least until the TX employers start crying because their supply of cheap, off-the-books labor vanishes.
It's amazing how much taxpayer money GOP politicians are willing to waste in order to virtue signal to the white supremacist right. Like kidnapping migrants and dumping them in the NE. It's just sad how low GOP politicians are willing to go to compete with each other to see who can be the biggest prick.

Then you don't need walls
