CRIME.


you’re all over the place. first you said walls work where there are people, but all those areas have walls. then you said walls don’t work. then you said they are too expensive.

the notion that barriers aren’t helpful at keeping people
on one side
from getting to the other side, is absurd.

if all areas that would
benefit from the wall already have walls, it would
make sense not to expand. but that’s not what Pelosi and Schumer have said, they are saying walls don’t work. and that they’re racist to boot. and according to Beto Oroarke, walls are also murderers.

No, I'm not all over the place.
Pelosi and Schumer said MORE walls don't work.
You can only cite anecdotal evidence that walls work, that Trump says they do or that agents say it will help.
Arrests of Illegals crossing the southern border dropped from 1.6 MILLION in 2000 to roughly 400 THOUSAND last year.

The drop in illegal crossings has minimal relationship with barriers of any kind, and far more to do with economic and societal conditions.

Niles: You have met “people”, haven’t you?
