Every wall has two sides. It can't do one unless it can do the other. Only honest folks in control of it can keep it from being used to keep us in if we want to go. In your experience of government, how likely is that to be perfect and permanent?
In mine, it's neither right now.
Edit: also, why do we even need a wall at all? What's keeping Border Patrol from doing it's job, as it has more or less for decades before?
Politics, and nothing else. How will a wall make our politicians better? If they're just as corrupt after a wall is up as they are now, they're going to get the invaders through it, over it, and around it anyway, because that's what corrupt politicians are paid to do.
This influx of immigrants is a result of corrupt politics, not the incompetence of the Border Patrol or lack of a wall. Prior to 1965 and the change in immigration policy, we didn't have this problem. It's deliberate, created by politicians, and going to keep happening with a wall too, because politicians can make a wall as porous as air.
"Q: why do you NOT want the President to uphold the law?"
What does that have to do with the issue?
Q: why do you want murderous thugs to kill Americans?
See? I misrepresent you just as easily as you misrepresent me.
No point in that. You don't want to address the actual points I did make, just say so. Don't put words in my mouth. I've got enough in there that I put there already. Ain't no room for extra.
I don't want murderous thugs to kill americans..that's why I want a wall.
both around my personal property. (fences, security systems...and last ditch bangs) as well as an outer permitter...a southern border wall. A wall between the Western states and the United states would just be gravy.
I appreciate your position. Having fled jurisdictions before, I am unwilling to create barriers to doing so. Hell, that's how I got to Texas in the first place.
I can accept that we disagree. I'd be unhappy if I couldn't find folks to set me straight when I'm wrong, and hope you are equally willing to accept my own adherence to what I think is right, even when you don't agree with me.

The problem is politics, not construction.
The wall is the law. Passed by a democratic congress and signed into law in 2006.
