A good %-age of the criminalian problem is folks just overstaying their visas. A wall is a must, but not the only solution to the problem of foreign invasion that we should deal with.

A wall to deal with invasion by foot.

Putting teeth into Visa overstaying to deal with the soft invasion by Visa.

So Calderon’s border wall with Guatemala also harms the environment?

The wall worked; the Germans just went around it, through another country.

Yup,they did...toward the end.But going around ours might not work...the sharks in those waters are hungry.

He should be skeptical! They clearly are not working as you can see in this pic from Hungary.

You call that a wall? That's just barely a *fence*!

It doesn’t solve the underlying problem but it does keep it where it belongs.

It’s not our problem - let’s stop others from shoving it off on U.S.

Yeah, a cheap fence of concertina wire. Notice how the illegal invaders are just POURING through it? Walls or fences, they never work!

A wall may not be as effective as shooting a few, but, it is more acceptable. This is where Bolshies do not understand that conventional war is not the last option.

They always talk about underlying causes.Walls don’t care about causes.

Doesn’t address root causes?

Neither does the front gate of Leggeri’s chateaux.

Absolutely. I’ve been saying that all these sanctuary cities need to have their international terminals at their airports shut down because the city is not cooperating with immigration. If they are going to help and shield visa overstays, then there should be no entry. Same for H1B and student visas where the sponsor is in a sanctuary state — freeze those applications to prevent visa overstays where we know the local aren’t cooperating with the limits of visas.

The root cause is Mexico`s problem, not ours.

“This doesn’t address the root cause of this phenomenon,” Leggeri said

It doesn't need to address the root cause of this phenomenon, Frenchie. All it needs to do is keep the people running away from the root cause from coming here illegally.

A top European security official on Thursday expressed skepticism about President-elect Donald Trump’s idea of building a wall to prevent illegal migrants from coming to the United States from Mexico.

Listen, Guido, Andre, Klaus or whatever, if we need your opinion we can ask for it.

Otherwise, buzz off.

We saved your butts twice in the 20th Century, but you'll be on your own, next time.

Don't you have better things to do? Go control your Koranimals...

The root cause is Mexico`s problem, not ours.

The root cause of Mexico's problem, is that it is run by Mexicans. Trump is putting a stop to Mexicans causing our problems. If Mexico wants solutions, they can take a page from Trump, and start listening to their downtrodden masses rather than shoving them across the border into the USA. Mexico is a racist country, not taking care of their darker skinned residents.

Well said. As you point out, Mexico`s problems are their own. Yet the left, doing what they always do, try to place the blame for all problems on anyone but those who are responsible.
