LOL, thanks...

I'll make this short since I'm about to go train, but I'll jump back on it tonight.


The border fence they are constructing (ESPECIALLY because it has such massive gaps) is just a band-aid on a gushing wound. It looks good for a politician to support it and the simplified phrase "border fence" sounds nice and safe to ill-informed voters. If people want in this country illegally from our southern border, a sheet metal fence will not stop them.
The problem lies in their respective countries, not ours. They flood away from their corruption and poverty, seeking American ideals and the jobs that we don't want.

I'm not advocating tossing money towards Mexico, Guatemala, Honduras, etc. to "fix" their problems...it sure as fuck wouldn't. But I think a concerted, international effort to pressure their governments into action is long overdue. Don't just toss out a sound bite about it at a yearly press conference either. I mean really fucking pressure these assholes to clean up their respective acts.

And you want to see my somewhat general view on immigration?:

Oh Penn and Teller, I love your logic dearly. =)
