If walls DONT WORK and are DUMB... Why did Democrats ok spending Millions of US dollars on walls for other countries the past couple of years?
And what percentage of those illegally crossing do you think the wall would actually stop?
I think its dumb for the Mexico-US border. I've seen enough pictures of and reporting about these huge tunnels that the cartels use to smuggle drugs from Mexico into our country. A wall would do nothing to stop that.
Look at the big cocaine bust in NJ. A wall wouldn't have stopped that, good police-work stopped it.
When I hear the political banter about a wall, I think of one singular-solid structure across the southern border. If you ask me, take that wall money and be smart about it. Patch-up or create new borders at various locations along the border where you've got the most issues... where it makes sense... Where the border agents request it. I read an article out of Texas that law enforcement officials didn't want a wall on their border -- Lets listen to the states.
Then, take the remaining money and make sure Border Patrol agents are being compensated properly. Buy the equipment needed to do their jobs better, more drug dogs, more security checkpoints, more body armor, etc. Hire more agents.
Or maybe we start going after organizations that hire illegals? I would love to see that
Can you point me to info on where 'Democrats' spent millions on walls for other countries? Unlike others on here (who think that staring into the sun won't hurt your eyes) I'm fine with being proven wrong if given new, reliable, information.
