We absolutely need the wall. Of course, it won’t stop, but it will significantly reduce the invasion.
“We absolutely need the wall. Of course, it won’t stop, but it will significantly reduce the invasion.”
A friend of mine from California recently made the tired, “They’ll just tunnel under the wall...” excuse for why we shouldn’t bother building a wall along the Mexican border. I told her that a couple of years ago in upstate New York, two convicts did dig a tunnel out of a maximum security prison and escape. After a couple of weeks, they were caught; one was gunned down and the other is back in prison. I asked my friend, “Do you think NYS’s politically liberal Governor then announced that all the high, barbed wire fences that surround maximum security prisons should be taken down because a couple of prisoners had managed to dig tunnels out of the prisons?” My friend smiled and responded, “No...” I then asked, “And, had the Governor so ordered, what do you think would have happened?” My friend replied, “Many, many more prisoners would have escaped than when there were high fences around the prisons.” I rested my case.
