Mexican officials in Tijuana placed a three-ton section of the former Berlin Wall near the U.S. border with a message to “build a society that knocks down walls and builds bridges.” The message ignores the stark difference in purpose between the two barriers.

During a ceremony in August, Tijuana Mayor Montserrat Caballero and former Mexican Foreign Secretary Marcelo Ebrard installed the 12-meter high segment of the fallen Berlin Wall — a wall designed by the former Soviet Union to keep communist-controlled German citizens locked inside and became an icon of the Cold War-era. Guards would frequently use deadly force to stop their citizens from fleeing the oppressive regime.

This is what an unambiguously corrupted government looks like, and they do not care who knows they’re corrupted.

I think the message is built a big, thick, tall concrete wall, guards and machine guns, wire, and land mines to make a great border.

Exactly. Big difference, and I am willing to bet that if Americans came streaming across the Mexican border demanding that their government supply us with goodies to survive & jobs to sustain a better lifestyle, they would be erecting border walls themselves to keep us out.

Idiots probably think the West Germans built The Wall.

Build a bridge to cartels and monsters who traffic children?

Mexico’s been brain invaded by stupid ‘guilty’ white liberal ‘elites’ stupidity?

No Way Jose.

Morons. The Berlin Wall was built to keep citizens from escaping. The border is to prevent to illegal immigrants, including criminals out.

Ok, so if I go to Mexico I should get a free smartphone, free money, a hotel room, a drivers license and a job. And Spanish lessons.

Go wade the Rio Grande into Mehico and find out what those bass turds do to your ass. A blindfold and a cigarette. My years in the military helped take down that wall. I physically went and chiseled on that wall. I don’t need a wetback arseho presidete using a piece of it as an excuse for him to dump his sewage in America. Mexico is not our friend. America needs to close the border bomb the crap out of that dump.

Maybe Texas should place a piece of the wall from the Alamo on our side of the river.

The best response would be a giant billboard on our side facing into the crap hole Mehico with a mural of the Great Wall Of China painted on it.
