A Mexican to Build the Wall

Hopefully, we can recover some of his illegally obtained money. But let's use it on something better to protect the security of the the U.S. like cyber-security research and protection.

The wall would not have stopped his drug trafficking.
Frozen sharks, fake carrots, and catapults: The bizarre ways smugglers like 'El Chapo' Guzmán get drugs across borders

He used tunnels, planes, submarines, drones, catapults, drugs stuffed into produce/donuts/frozen sharks carried across at ports of entry by cars and trucks which also concealed drugs in various places. A very small amount of high-end drugs like heroin and cocaine come through isolated areas where Trump's extension of the already 700 mile wall/fence would be built.

 

Being anti-wall is being anti-science. There is far more real scientific evidence supporting the need for a southern wall than supporting significant human impact harming the earth's climate pattern.

 

All these methods would have defeated Trump's extension of the current 650 mile wall.

 

Tell that to the people who police the border and you will find them laughing in your face. I'll just tell you how wrong you are.

There are reasons not to build a wall to help secure the border, but they all involve benefitting from illegal activity, something Democrats are into big league. Those who suffer from illegal activity want a secure wall. Those arguing that walls alone won’t work are correct, but that is a strawman, as no one is arguing for walls alone.

 

Trump Says Border Wall Will Stop Drugs. Here’s What a DEA Intel Report Says.

President Donald Trump says his wall at the U.S.-Mexico border will help stem the flow of illegal drugs into the United States. There’s one problem with the plan: The drugs coming into the U.S. Northeast often arrive by plane, boat, or hidden in vehicles, according to an intelligence report by the Drug Enforcement Administration.

A 24-page report prepared by the DEA in May found that drugs coming from Mexico do often enter through the southwestern border, but they do so concealed in vehicles, like tractor-trailers. Moreover, drugs coming from Colombia are more often transported by plane and boat, the reports notes.

 

“President Donald Trump says his wall at the U.S.-Mexico border will help stem the flow of illegal drugs into the United States.” Are you claiming that this is untrue? If so, you’re wrong. Are you saying the article proves this is untrue? If so, you’re wrong. Are you saying this is the sole reason for the wall? If so, you’re wrong. Are you saying this should be the main reason for the wall? If so, you’re wrong.

 

The logic behind this statement is equivalent to the story of the guy who, when walking along the sidewalk bordering a river, would take his walking stick and every 10 steps would whistle and take his cane and strike the sidewalk 3 times with the top of the stick.
A fellow walker, observing this odd behavior, asked the reason for such actions.
The reply: "It's a surefire method of making sure no sharks try to get you when walking near the edge of the river!"
The questioner then stated, "There are no sharks in this river, we're too far inland for one thing, AND this is fresh water!"
Replied the walker, "Pretty darned effective ain't it?"

Just in case the comparison is lost, just how sure are you that only a "small amount" of drugs cross across the "isolated" areas; and how is this determined?

Reminds me of the idiotic comment I read many years back when the "environmentalists" made a claim about humans destroying complete species of animals. "We have to do something soon, cause already hundreds of species have been eliminated that we haven't even discovered yet!"

Amazing how these bozos can make such stupid statements - probably because they have long abandoned common sense as a judging criteria!?

 

In the postmodern era, truth no longer means what it means, so all manner of substitutes suffice, and feelings are the gauge.

 

In theory, this is a good idea, but you would need not just a mandate, but teachers for the purpose. This would likely require professionals busy elsewhere to donate their time for the sake of saving the country. Maybe a local school club would be the way to start, as in a grassroots movement.

 

Are you saying you know more about drug smuggling than the Drug Enforcement Agency? That's what Trump is saying but then he says that about everything but knows nothing.

 

No, I’m plainly saying that all too often you have a seriously hard time understanding what is written, especially when some reason and logic need to be applied, and that such is the case here.

 

I understand truthful statements and rational arguments not the lies and misleading statements made by Trump and his supporters.

 

You may feel this way, but you seem unable to demonstrate it.

 

Open borders are notoriously difficult to patrol, but walls seriously limit illegal crossings and make patrolling much easier, more effective. The combination is simply a must. This is why the US Border Patrol wants a wall.

The only ones who do not want a wall are those who do not really care about all illegal entry of drugs, of gangs, of thieves, of rapists, of murderers, of sex trafficking, of child prostitution, of criminal aliens who bilk the system by the billions--this especially includes Democrats, who know they will benefit politically from the displacement of current citizens.
