How come Mexico gets to build a wall along its southern border but we don't get to put one in along ours?

Answer 1

I'm just guessing that it might be for the same reason the Mexican president can lecture us on not letting thousands of people cross our border illegally when Mexico throws you in a Mexican hell hole jail and throws away the key if you go into his country illegally.

Answer 2

The CFR plan for years has been to model the North American continent after Europe with open borders. Will the people of the US and Canada accept it?
I think a common sense low cost approach would be to pass a law which makes it a mandatory sentence for illegals caught in the US to work on a wall building project for X amount of time before being deported.

Answer 3

hypocrites, but c'mon do we really care what Mexico thinks, we can build a wall if we want to, but can we actually afford building a wall so big? a wall seems like a backwards idea from the middle ages, shouldn't we think about other technology aided ways to stop illegal immigrants ? Or how about hiting all the companies who hire illegal immigrants hard with fines and spend the revenue from that on Mexican aid, you can keep the borders open all you want then and no mexican would want to come then

Answer 4

No one is stopping the USA from building the wall.

However the billions of dollars required to finish the wall was reallocated to the fraudulent war on terror after it was determined that the wall would have little effect on stemming illegal immigration.

Answer 5

Who says we are not allowed to have a wall along our border? Because some people cried fowl?

Answer 6

Because Americans would rather be taken over by illegals than protect itself. Plus, there are drugs crossing the border. People love drugs, for some reason.

Answer 7

I guess you haven't seen the wonderful wall begun by Bush. That was such a waste of money the immigrants just walked a couple of miles around it. It is a National Joke, much like the politicians who touted it as a remedy, like John McCain did in his latest political ads.

Answer 8

Stopping the drug flow starts with their southern border.

Answer 9

Their wall is made out of dung and mud, it wont last the rainy season. An american wall will be reinforced concrete and steel

Answer 10

The first president, liberal or conservative, who has the balls to do it would instantly become an American hero.
