Officials in one Arizona border town are opposed to President Donald Trump’s border wall to restrict illegal immigration.
“A wall would only represent a slap to the face of our Mexican neighbors,” John Doyle, mayor of border town Nogales, Ariz., told USA TODAY. “It sends the wrong signal to the rest of the world.”
Nogales, Ariz. and Nogales, Sonora, Mexico, are separated currently by a largely ineffective border fence. Many on the U.S. side of town, including county sheriff Tony Estrada, have friendships and familial ties across the border.

“A wall would only represent a slap to the face of our Mexican neighbors,”
I think he meant Mexican invaders.

Fine, then. Build the wall so that both cities of Nogales are on the Mexican side.

A slap? What the....! We need to give them a good punch in the chops and a swift boot in the ass. BTW: #Notmyneighbors.

The mayor isn’t familiar with Robert Frost, I take it.

Many border-town bigshots profit in many ways from all forms of smuggling.
This is not rocket science.

Good. It should be. We no longer want them, and never have needed them.
Donald Trumps victory over everyone is a testament to that fact.

Having been to Nogales a time or two I’d bet good money this guy lives in a walled estate, topped with razor wire, controlled access roads and armed security ... in addition to the Nogales PD which would be at his beck and call.

How would he feel if we added mine fields, Concertina wire, and Claymores to the wall?
