    you guy's can hate Trump all you want..no problem, but you really should think about OUR national security.

    For myself I do NOT HATE President Trump you should NOT lump me in with others who might do so. I do think he's clearly unprepared for this job but will take on this job to make it ALL about himself while also make a ton of money for himself and his followers. For the time being I will give him the benefit of the doubt....He's just starting out his presidency which has not started out on a positive note.

    Unlike you Godfather who HATED former president Obama to the core, of whom you called every negative vile name in the book.

    Peace
    ohhhhh that's not true.....there were a few names I left out. LOL !~!!!!

    Good for you, it shows what kind of person you truly are to think it's funny and want to laugh about it. What brilliance you can show.

    Peace
    if I take everything that's said to me on this forum seriously I wouldn't be having any fun, most of you folks when comes to politics' are
    campaigning with your emotions more than clear thinking and I understand that, we all do it from time to time so why not have a little fun with serious debate ?
    I'm sure from my posts by here are far the emotional side of things what does bother me from time is the shear stupidity that is shown here. As far as you are concerned GF you have 0 credibility with me *zero*™ :smile:

    Peace
    LOL ! and this would mean what to me ?

    Are you guys who are anti wall in favor of the already existing wall between Mexico and the United States?

    Does the current wall work? I've heard it doesn't.
    it was never finished, I actually worked on that wall while working with cranes (12 years) and the funny thing about it is that nobody protested nobody mocked the president in fact most Americans were all for it and I'll bet if Clinton had finished that wall you all would be saying how great it is and you'd be so proud that she loves America.............TRUTHBOMB ! LOL !!!

    No
    Si

    Never have wanted a wall and I don't care who the president is/was. A wall is not how you solve problems and will be a monumental long term cost and hassle.

    We do need to identify a solution to the problems that the Border Patrol agents are facing because these are not made up concerns; however, it should not be a knee jerk reaction that just requires physical materials and no long term policy, agreement or proactive plan. It's like building more prisons instead of identifying why so many people are being incarcerated. Building walls and prisons makes people feel better and safe so they can forget about actually solving the issue. They are both band-aids that only mask the problem.

    This administration seems to be all about putting band-aids on and acting like they've solved the problem. You can see the same thinking in every cabinet pick so far. Create the illusion and people will move on to something else.
    how many walls have been built to safeguard countries and keep non citizens out ? fences make good neighbors.

    Good thing these walls weren't in place when your ancestors arrived here or turned away at airport or at the ship dock !

    LOL !!!! that's funny, My ancestors didn't come here to leach off the system, use terroristic violence and demand Americans change their culture and beliefs to suit ours, that wall is more than just to detour Mexican people there are also isis scum using the Mexican/American border to come here and commit crimes..among others.

    Uhhhh, Godfather, perhaps you need a lesson in U.S. history on why anyone who isn't a native tribesman is here in the first place. Perhaps ask a native tribesman what he or she thinks about people coming here and using terrorism and changing cultures. You say some dumb shit but this is one of the dumbest.
    why Native Tribesman ? they were not the first settle in N. America, archeologist have found that it very likely French European's and Asians following where among the first settled inhabitance....you were talking about native American Indians right ? if you're going to quote history in America you really should keep up with the changing information just so you don't say anything "dumb" ....Uhhhhh O.K ?

    I appreciate the information. It doesn't discredit my point.

    Could you please provide for some of us who may know any of this info a link so I can improve my knowledge of North America.

    Peace
    research, you'll have to do it yourselves.
    Ahh, the classic "I have information, you don't. Hardy harr, you'll have to find it." Thank you for being so educational.
    sorry man, oh crap this is too funny.
    it's not stuff I specifically look for usually but run across while looking for other info....shit I can't get passed the "Hardy Harr" ohhh that was funny, thank you good sir for the laugh, really I mean it ..I'm friggin crying from laughing.

    Forget the wall. Fix the current system that doesn't work. Revamp the welfare system and immigration. If your not a citizen, you don't get free anything. If you are a criminal you get deported. Stop the fleecing of American generosity. Oh and that applies to the citizens of this country too. Change welfare into workfare. If immigrants have children here that instantly become US citizens because they were born here, then allow them to go through the process to become legal citizens. Encourage them to be responsible citizens and help pay their dues, including taxes. There are many people that don't do this. It's a growing problem. It's not going to fix itself. But building a wall will not solve anything. It will just temporize the problem. Stop government incompetency. This obviously would include Trump.

    I agree & would add if you are an illegal immigrant and want legal status you should be mandated to serve in the armed forces for 4 yrs to gain legal status ..
    I like it....I like it a lot.
    Were going to need the troops...

    criminal acts that would warrant jail/prison.

    you said crime. cite it. border jumping doesnt seem to qualify as criminal by statute. its a civil matter.

    I would say businesses are the main culprit in illegal immigration and I totally agree with your point. Wouldn't it make sense to make every illegal person a legal citizen with the stroke of a pen and then have them pay into social security and taxes?
    I'll ride the wave where it takes me......

    Yeah, that's why I said not sure about a mandate. But yeah, it could be an option for people who WANT to do it as a path to citizenship in the US. Because we should not involuntarily keep payng taxes for our government to support these individuals who aren't citizens.

    Uhhhh, Godfather, perhaps you need a lesson in U.S. history on why anyone who isn't a native tribesman is here in the first place. Perhaps ask a native tribesman what he or she thinks about people coming here and using terrorism and changing cultures. You say some dumb shit but this is one of the dumbest.
    why Native Tribesman ? they were not the first settle in N. America, archeologist have found that it very likely French European's and Asians following where among the first settled inhabitance....you were talking about native American Indians right ? if you're going to quote history in America you really should keep up with the changing information just so you don't say anything "dumb" ....Uhhhhh O.K ?

    French Europeans??? Seriously GF? When the landmass that we now know as North America was first populated, there was no such thing as France, let alone French Europeans. Asians? Who do you mean by Asians? Are you speaking of those who crossed over from the 'Asian' landmass when it was connected to the north American landmass?

    You guys are scared of everybody... except apparently well armed white people with mental health issues. You'll build a drive thru windows for them to buy an AR-15... speaking of national security *ahem*
