    Didn't have any issues on the site other than normal popups.

    As for his proposal - sounds great but did the US actually get 14 billion in seizures from El Chapo?

    Sums up the issue??? WTF are you talking about.

    What problem do you have with a wall along the southern border?

    Just the fact that it's not needed and the entire situation is a made up crisis. That's about it. Oh, and the fact that it doesn't solve a single issue regarding bad things getting into our country.

    Made up. That’s funny. So you don’t belive that illegals are a problem?

    So what’s going to solve the issues?

    Also for anyone pro-marijuana, anyone notice in Trumps speech last night he didnt mention it as an illegal drug when he listed them at the beginning?

    Do you lock your doors at night or when you go out of town? Totally unnecessary.
    I suppose that Banks and Stores shouldn't lock the vault or door when they are closed either... hell the TSA and Cops are a waste of time also.
    Who needs a Military?? Waste of $$$

    I don't think there is an issue to solve because I don't believe there is a problem. It's simply a hot-button topic that get's certain people emotionally involved. That's what politicians like to prey on...and I'm talking about both sides! It simply keeps the genpops attention away from the real problems in our country.

    You know what I want? I want both sides to be more pissed off about the fact that our country lags so far behind in education than similar countries. I want people to be more pissed off about the fact that our entire infrastructure is crumbling under our feet.

    But nah...let's divert our rage on a brown man that might climb a fence and pick some fruit that nobody else in our country wants to pick.

    Damn your a scared individual. And for the record, I don't lock my doors often. But besides that, what in the hell are you babbling about?!?

    Oddly being involved in racing I know a number of people who live near the border and a number who are LEOs in the area, they all see a huge problem. It's nice that one cafe in one town does not.

    It won't solve all of them, duh. But it will absolutely solve a number of them even if all it does is make it harder to cross illegally. Just that alone will deter a number of people.

    Scared? I rarely lock my doors, keys are always in my cars at the house... but I don't live in the city.
    The Border shit isn't "made up", we have family in McAllen TX..stories have been ongoing for YEARS.

    OK I will bite. How many billions are spent in the school systems on illegal aliens and their off spring? How much resources are spent on English as a second language programs? I suspect both pale in comparison to the cost of a wall. Oh and the wall is one large expenditure followed by maintenance while the issues I posted above are not just recurring costs they are increasing with time.

    He could literally sway millions of current democrats to vote for him by legalizing the stuff at the federal level

    Hence my comment as to what you were babbling about. How you extrapolated that out of my original comments regarding border security makes no sense to me.

    And I don't disagree that things happen at the border, just not the scale or depravity that is being falsely reported.
