I believe in solving problems, not sharing them.

Do we post "Illegal immigrants welcome" on OUR border? Do we post "We have no walls?" on OUR border? I mean, what "migrants welcome" sign do WE have on our border, exactly?

Quote:Originally posted by JEWELSTAITEFAN: Texas Lt Governor says only 200 miles of Border Wall needed in TX. From Brownsville to Falcon Lake. He is also a big supporter of Trump. Wikipedia says there are 48 legal crossings on the Mexico land Border. Ferry - 1 in TX. Railroad - 8. 2 in CA, 1 in AZ, 5 in TX. Road: 50. 9 in CA, 9 in AZ, 3 in NM, 29 in TX. Not sure why the numbers don't add up. Maybe Libtard Wiki used Libtard Maths for cyphering, or Wiki is not well versed in American English. CA has 140 miles of Border. AZ has 373 miles. NM has 180 miles. TX has 1,241 miles. Total 1,934 miles. If 1,040 miles of Texas Border really doesn't need a Wall, and 14 miles in CA already has one, that leaves 880 miles. Not sure where that 130 miles of natural barrier are located. But apparently not along this 200 mile stretch in TX. Of the 654 miles already built under Bush, if 200 were already in TX, then about 450 are elsewhere. So 450 miles of existing Wall, plus 130 miles of natural barrier, subtracted from 880 miles, leaves only 300 miles of Wall needed. If that 1,000 miles in TX is really not needed. In NM, 180 miles with 3 crossings averages 60 miles between. And AZ with 373 miles and 9 crossings averages 42 miles between. That first kid who died crossed at a point 80 minutes away from the nearest Border Unit, which means the others are closer together. I'll look at that data closer. The 2006 Secure Fence Act, compromised in 2007 by Kay Bailey Hutchinson so that it wouldn't be built. 1. 20 mile fence, centered on Tecate CA. 2. Fence, from 10 miles west of Calexico CA to 5 miles east of Douglas AZ. 3. From 5 miles west of Columbus NM to 10 miles east of El Paso TX. 4. From 5 miles northwest of Del Rio TX to 5 miles southeast of Eagle Pass TX. 5. From 15 miles northwest of Laredo TX to Brownsville TX Port of Entry.

Quote:Dems Border Proposal "Making This Entire Country A Sanctuary" For Illegals Authored by Sara Carter, Negotiations over securing and building a border wall have reached an impasse Sunday as bipartisan talks are failing and both sides are edging closer to a government shutdown this Friday. Further, Democrats are pushing to weaken Immigration and Customs Enforcement, proposing drastic limitations on beds and weakening the agencies effectiveness to hold criminal illegal immigrants, said Tom Homan, former ICE Director. Border Patrol agents apprehend illegal immigrants in the Rio Grande Valley sector, 2014.McAllen, Texas. (Photo: Sara Carter) He told SaraACarter.com Sunday that the proposal is a serious security issue that is unacceptable. “The Dems proposal will result in tens of thousands of criminal aliens and other illegal aliens that are currently detained pending a court hearing or removal to be released into our communities,” said Homan. He noted the proposals are “making this entire country a sanctuary.” It will result in “a rush to the border because incoming aliens will know there is no consequence for their actions,” Homan added. “As I have said all year, the Dems may not abolish ICE but they will cripple them and make them ineffective by severely harming their operational budget.”

Goodbye, kind world (George Monbiot) - In common with all those generations which have contemplated catastrophe, we appear to be incapable of understanding what confronts us.
