Thoughts? (Preferably from those who actually take the time to read it all).

    First, an apology- I have not read the entire article, at least not yet. But anything that starts out with, "A nation without borders is not a nation. There must be a wall across the southern border," does little to entice me to read on. The whole premise of A WALL between the US and Mexico shows complete ignorance of the affect it would (in many places, does) have on the migratory habits of land based wildlife. How incredibly arrogant of humans is that?! That's as kindly as I can put it.

    So Trump plans to make America half of a nation then? Or is there plans for a Canada wall as well? To complete our nationhood.

    LOL. How easily we view "America" as being "USA".

    No bad at all, Zact, just adding to your good point!

    The entire world consideres "America" to be the USA though, so don't get out of the habit. I know that if you call a Canadian "American", that Canadian will reject it. We would never call ourselves American in a million years, and we don't want anyone else calling us that either (no offense). Neither would any Mexican. So you guys can have the title. "American" DOES mean you're from the USA. Just because the continent happens to be called North America is doesn't mean anyone within it is called American. That's not how it works. Also, North America is not a nation. But I'm pretty sure you already knew that, right? I'm not positive after reading the above comments.
