I think it's silly to equate the Trump wall to the KKK wall but then I forget who is President.PJ_Soul said:
That makes no sense dude.tempo_n_groove said:
If anybody has a fence at their house you'll need to take it down because you are acting just like the KKK did in 1924...CM189191 said:
Stop it.
The wall as a platform is dumb but some things that people equate it to are even worse...
Sorry, ,my bad...

I think Trump's analogy is stupid and irrelevant and AOC's response is pretty close to the same level, but from the opposite spectrum.tempo_n_groove said:

She has impressed me with her energy but not with her substance thus far. But I'm a 46 year old white guy so there's that.0 -
Scary times we live in. This was going on in my own town several months ago. If we all only had fences.

building a wall to keep out the scary brown man is not the same as having a fence to keep your neighbor's dog from shitting on your lawn.
most people should be able to see the difference here
See how you could link the two together?
so in your scenario, the scary brown man = dog ?
No, I don't see how you could like the two together.
this is what structural racism looks like
It's an analogy. You don't have to agree or pretend it doesn't make sense, that's fine.
The dog is a dog shitting on your lawn. If a person was doing it I'm sure there are bigger problems where you live...
I'm using a fence as an example as how we do need boundaries. Do we need a wall? Not sure.
I do know we need to put more money towards processing people into the country. I'm for processing all of them legally with stipulations.
tRUmp's fence analogy didn't resonate with me.
I've seen this argument that everyone aspires to have a big beautiful house, with a fenced in lawn, in a gated community.
Places like that freak me out - not everyone aspires to that. I've lived in cities with shared walls most of my life.

When I moved back to California years ago from NY everyone had a 6-8' high wall and a garage door opener. I was staying w a relative at the time and I asked him if he knew the neighbors and he said only 1.
I told him I am going to introduce myself. He begged me not to, lol.
So, I knocked on everyone's door in that cul de sac and said hello and if they needed something please don't be scared to knock on our door.
We became friends w everyone in our circle and felt ok to go borrow butter or sugar from the neighbors.
Also when I was in Iraq they also had higher fences to dwell behind but that was because if I or anyone was to see a females hair without a cover I'd have been shot and so would have the woman...0 -
GEE,
No mention of the word "terrorist" in the president's address last night.

I have a fence, not a wall. It's wrought iron and 4 foot high. It's to keep the dog in...that's it. I'd love not to have one in my backyard, but it's practical. I only built it for the dog when he was young.CM189191 said:tempo_n_groove said:

See how you could link the two together?
so in your scenario, the scary brown man = dog ?
No, I don't see how you could like the two together.
this is what structural racism looks like
It's an analogy. You don't have to agree or pretend it doesn't make sense, that's fine.
The dog is a dog shitting on your lawn. If a person was doing it I'm sure there are bigger problems where you live...
I'm using a fence as an example as how we do need boundaries. Do we need a wall? Not sure.
I do know we need to put more money towards processing people into the country. I'm for processing all of them legally with stipulations.
tRUmp's fence analogy didn't resonate with me.
I've seen this argument that everyone aspires to have a big beautiful house, with a fenced in lawn, in a gated community.
Places like that freak me out - not everyone aspires to that. I've lived in cities with shared walls most of my life.
When I moved back to California years ago from NY everyone had a 6-8' high wall and a garage door opener. I was staying w a relative at the time and I asked him if he knew the neighbors and he said only 1.
I told him I am going to introduce myself. He begged me not to, lol.
So, I knocked on everyone's door in that cul de sac and said hello and if they needed something please don't be scared to knock on our door.
We became friends w everyone in our circle and felt ok to go borrow butter or sugar from the neighbors.
Also when I was in Iraq they also had higher fences to dwell behind but that was because if I or anyone was to see a females hair without a cover I'd have been shot and so would have the woman...
Even on the roof there was 8' walls but in the fronts and backs there wasn't so if I tried I would be able to look in other peoples yards.
It was definitely a different experience...By The Time They Figure Out What Went Wrong, We'll Be Sitting On A Beach, Earning Twenty Percent.0 -

The wall as a platform is dumb but some things that people equate it to are even worse...
building a wall to keep out the scary brown man is not the same as having a fence to keep your neighbor's dog from shitting on your lawn.
most people should be able to see the difference here

yeah....they kind of were. it may not have been intentionally derogatory, but that doesn't mean it didn't happen. dehumanizing minorities like that needs to be acknowledged, it's not right.

lol. We couldn't go to a gym. We couldn't really go anywhere but work. They feared for our safety but I could get away from people and go on the roof.HughFreakingDillon said:
working out on rooftops in iraq? are you tom sizemore or ewan mcgregor?tempo_n_groove said:
Walking around wasn't the problem, we didn't do much of that anyways it was when you were at home. I used to go out on the roof to workout and get some air so I had to be careful when I was up there and to not look over into other peoples yards.HughFreakingDillon said:
holy fuck. I would have fucking bird boxed it the entire time visting that country.tempo_n_groove said:
I and the she would have been killed, yes. Where we were it was very religious and that is how they handled things like that.HughFreakingDillon said:

You called them scary brown men...I did not.
No dehumanizing. You brought up the dog, not me.
A fence was needed to keep others from getting on to your property... That's the analogy. That's it.
Sometimes people look to hard for something to be there that's not... Jesus.
