if we had go fund me in the 1940s tru today

would we have used it to help build or prevent

Japanese-American citizens internment camps ?


stop: School integration or forced busing

Fund : McCarthyism?


Fear is a dangerous thing... when its not based on facts and promoted by political parties

people can give to whom or whatever they want ....

But who's next? what person ,race ,sex ,religion, political position ..is anyone safe ?

And if go fund me site for a wall is what people think will MAGA

they never understood America to start with ... in my view

so trying to prevent millions of un-vetted people
from illegally entering, is comparable to concentration camps?

my god
man. your side handled segregation all on their own, they didn’t need funding.

my goodness. Trump is draining IQ points out of your head.

it’s fear mongering to want a secure border? seriously? really?

and we have had them here for since we became a nation ... PS no country is immune from illegal immigrants

Even an ocean AKA the mediterranean isn't a big enough obstacle to stop people looking for a better life! and you think a wall will be better

5 billion would be better spent creating stable countries in south America . so people wouldn't want to leave to begin with

Yes indeed it’s called America, where EVERY single one of us is descended from illegal immigration and look what our ancestors did to the true original citizens of this continent. Trump is an idiot for thinking a big cement wall is the answer to our immigration issues and while I’m not saying there isn’t an issue, but that solution makes no sense. Ask any experienced military leader if a solid line of sight blocking wall makes any sense, I’m pretty sure everyone would respond no. We have so much better technology available to surveil and react to issues at the border and FYI how do you think all the owners of the land we would have to take to get it built are going to feel.

ILLEGAL!!!! immigration issues....for crying out loud


for centuries, when someone did not want others coming on to their property without their permission...they have built walls....we have a serious problem with people crossing our southern border without our permission....what exactly do you propose to stop it?

Put the money into surveillance technology and people (jobs) and get away from a big fat political statement. Not one person on this board is arguing against tighter security and common sense immigration reform; but a giant solid wall is just not good use of our tax dollars. Hey anyone factor in the money required to maintain it and oh yeah you better get better at detecting tunnels and oh yeah; there are coastlines by the thousands and people do own boats.

the wall
works in Israel. i bet you have a door in your house that you shut at night. the prison where wdmso works has, you guessed it, walls.

a wall won’t end illegal immigration, it won’t mean we all live forever. most sane people concede that it will help.

World War Z scene from Israel is exactly how Trump sees things, needs it big and if he had his way, with armed guard towers every mile.

Your truly out of touch

Israel's barrier, still under construction, is expected to reach at least 403 miles in length

ONCE AGAIN THE 2 ARE NOT REMOTELY THE SAME

so, i’m wrong for bringing up the wall in israel, because it’s not the same.

but YOU brought up
internment camps, school
desegregation, busing, and McCarthyism. Those have more in common with Trumps wall, than Israel’s wall?

YOU HAVE FUN ANSWERING THAT.

You tell
us why McCarthyism is
more like Trumps wall, than Israel’s wall is like Trumps wall. Please
enlighten me?

it was stupid and wrong...

I bet the native americans wish they'd had a big wall to defend and if you think what happened to the native americans.. where a bunch of people from foreign lands just wandered in and decided to stay...shouldn't you be 100% against illegal immigration?

Im starting to see why Trump is so much smarter than all of you guys. A stable genius. I heard he is giving up his idea of the wall and has decided to go with a moat backed with trebuchets as no one knows more about tech than Individual 1.

I think you're the only one who took that seriously. To be honest I think you're far more intelligent than president Trump. And that is sad. And I'll save you the trouble it's sad because I don't think our president is very intelligent and it's not a reflection on you.

If we had go fund me in those eras would we have funded the things I listed

They are like Trumps wall because its stoked in fear and sold and masked as National security its amazing what people are willing to do to others with enough lies

it not hard to see the parallels...

Ps we have more wall the Israel what do you think it cost to patrol 400 miles one-third of the U.S.-Mexico line, or 654 miles, has security fencing, The border between the United States and Mexico stretches 3,145 kilometers (1,954 miles) whats good is a wall once built if you can pay to patrol it
