Who says walls don't work?

[dukkha]

Why yes. Afterall, you cannot dig under them, climb over them, cut through them, or even go around them.

you mean to say "you can't walk right thru a wall" like you can walk thru much of our current border

 

[Minister of Truth]

Problem is they weren't. Well, unless you count the murders committed by Reagan, and Bush 41.

We stopped them from gaining power, which is the only way you prevent Marxist regimes from establishing their killing fields.

Evidently it was only temporary. However, the loss of American lives was worth the "price", right?

Walls do a great job keeping criminals in prisons .... They will also do a great job keeping criminals out .

As always, it depends on the situation.

physical barriers are the single most effective way to curb mass migration. which is why so many are being built

It has to be more then drones and border agents. the barrier is the physical defense line that other methods support

Although less than half of illegal immigrants in the U. S. come across the southern border. Over half come in legally and overstay their visas. I don't think a wall helps with those.

Far more than walls. They have lots of guards. They have armed guard towers. Everyone in jail is counted for and watched. Of course we all know that ElChapo was sprung via a tunnel from a super-secure prison. We also know that Mexican cartels have a great talent to make tunnels. and they move drugs and people right through the border towns. The wall is a joke. They can tunnel under, climb over or walk around them. They also have to use eminent domain to take the land. that puts them in court. There are still cases in coutrt fighting the wall and eminent domain when Bush wanted to take the land.

How many of the illegals walking across our border qualify for a visa?

How many of them would be granted one?

How many of them can afford to fly to the US?

That is why they cross illegally. My point is the wall stops (?) less than half of those entering illegally.

 

[Darth Omar]

Why yes. Afterall, you cannot dig under them, climb over them, cut through them, or even go around them.

Getting caravans through is a bit trickier.

That's because we now have half a wall ....

It stops the people who couldn't get a visa legally, and you think that's not an improvement?

Even if we had a wall nobody could get over (or under) it would stop less than half of those in the country illegally.

So you don't mind if they are here illegally as long as they qualify for a tourist or student visa?

 

[USFREEDOM911]

You left out the Vatican and the actors living behind walls, in California.

 

[USFREEDOM911]

they obviously don't work it's time to move past this and get to something that will work

You saying that they don't work and you explaining why they don't work, are two different things and you would do better explaining why!!

Is that what I said?

 

[USFREEDOM911]

Why yes. Afterall, you cannot dig under them, climb over them, cut through them, or even go around them.

So you finally admit that they are a deterrent to just walking in and that other ways must be found.
