Your opinions on the U.S. border wall

[Curious George]

As they are assuming a flight risk without evidence.

First, why do you think they are assuming a flight risk without evidence?

Just google it, stop being lazy.

It's poor form to not provide links when asked. The burden is always on the one who makes the claim -that's how it's always been on internet forums.

You didn’t ask for a link, you asked for the source. The source is Donald Trump. He is the one who said it.

But if you want a link, here:
Trump threatens to close southern border - CNN Video

The video will give you Trump’s actual tweet, and you will see that he is talking about shutting down the southern border including trade.

Oh... Well thanks.

Ya but if you watched the news you'd know that already. Check out 'news.google.com'

Just read the headlines for a specific story to get a mixture of perspectives from Fox, CNN, ABC, NBC, etc.. Then you can make an informed decision.

Obviously, I don't watch the news. I get my information from more scholarly sources like Reuters.

Which ones?

 

[Cooky]

Which ones?

Sorry, I just edited. Reuters online is much more reliable than television media

I wonder how many of those that voted “no” aren’t Americans and don’t wish America well.

GPS tracking hinges upon the premise.

 

[FlyingTeaPot]

Excellent demonstration. I misspoke, though, I meant to say theories aren't facts, not that they don't explain them.

Well, that's great, then. We are in agreement. The theory of evolution explains the fact of evolution, right?

 

[Earthling]

Well, that's great, then. We are in agreement. The theory of evolution explains the fact of evolution, right?

No, I wouldn't agree to anything stupid.

I wonder how many of those that voted “no” aren’t Americans and don’t wish America well.

And I wonder how many of those who voted "yes" really don't know what they're talking about-- much like Trump.

The commission for the CBP says a see-through fence is better then Trump's wall and that he would rather have the money for more personnel and upgraded technology.

Mostly just the ones in your imagination.

I remember when I was in third grade.

Yes, it does. That is how scientific theories work, they explain facts. The theory of evolution explains the verifiable empirical phenomenon of variation of species.

Amidst a government shut-down, I think it's time we discuss this potential wall, and why it's such a good or bad idea.

...Do do you or do you not support a wall on the U.S. southern border? Please explain your reasons.

I'll give 5 bucks to the first person to find and post facts about how many miles Humpy can build for 5 billion dollars.

And then what?

And even with a wall how would that help the poor people fleeing for theirs lives and wanting a chance at a humane life for themselves and their families?

What about those people? I think shutting down the government over this dumpty idea hasn't been well thought out.

And Happy New Year to all. I'm enjoying your interesting forum. Thanks.

I'll give 5 bucks to the first person to find and post facts about how many miles Humpy can build for 5 billion dollars.

And then Trump will shut down the government again the next time a spending bill comes up to get more money. If this works he will do it again and again.

Tragic that they’re in that situation, but shouldn’t we take care of our own first?

My main concern is for people to understand that 5 billion isn't going to build more than a few miles of wall. The entire thing is a scam and something that no one should support if they actually thought out the whole thing.

But you're right. Trumpty is good at creating distractions and playing the idiot bully. And he probably would do it again. He is like a child who just keeps pushing and pushing to see what he can get away with.

In the meantime, people have planned vacations to National Parks, hotels, car rentals, park employees, airlines, all losing money and the rest working without pay. And that's only the parks. People should not be having to pay for his incompetency.

This is not the way for him to get re-elected. Or maybe it is. How many supporters does he have left?
