    1500 people cover 2,000 miles, and hold hands? Are the sources retards? We need a better education system. This is too fkn sad!

    - Embrace the Tennessee Student Free Expression Act. State Rep. Martin Daniel, R-Knoxville, has introduced HB739, which quotes the Tennessee constitution: "The free communication of thoughts and opinions, is one of the invaluable rights of man, and every citizen may freely speak, write, and print on any subject."
    Daniel's bill states the obvious: "In recent years, state institutions of higher education have abdicated their responsibility to uphold free speech principles."

    - Commit to hiring conservatives. . .

    I can´t help but wonder how many Latin Americans
    go all ape s... and actually stage their own protest.or
    holding hands in defiance of a Mexican government
    hell bent on building a similar wall along its southern
    border.
    As if we´re aware of what is being said behind closed
    doors which is not meant for public ears.

    Some 60 years ago Mexico and Singapore were in roughly the same spot re political corruption and economic output. What a vast difference in results after 6 decades. Singapore began a major anti-corruption campaign, while Mexico chose a massive pro-corruption campaign, and despite trillions in freebies and subsidies and millions of free jobs from the U.S. and Canada, is an even worse crap hole now than it was 60 years ago, while Singapore is among the top 10 least corrupt countries, 11 spots above the U.S., to our shame, at Number 7 to our Number 18.

    My single biggest question concerning illegal immigration from Mexico has always been why don't they stay in their own country and work to improve it? Does Mexico HAVE to be a pit of poverty, drugs and corruption?

    The big argument for letting them in is how hard they work and their noble goal of better lives for their families.

    If they are so hard working and a people of such high caliber, why can't they stay and fix their own country and be a true ally and partner of the U.S.?

    It's unfair to ask rational questions.

    Besides "the Church", Latin American nations are also retarded by the old oligarchy and land owners.
    Witness what "they" recently did in Brazil, contrary to "the will of the people".

    For some years I studied the Mexican Revolution, the first social revolution. Although repeatedly promised "land reform", it never happened due to their leaders either being corrupted or shot.
    For a good time and for free see, "The Storm That Swept Mexico" on YouTube.

    At the time, a few hundred miles away was Hollywood and that that technology caught the scenes. Except for the Cubans, the Latins have never forced their oligarchy out. Mainland Latin America needs to take a lesson from Cuba or Russia or France.

    Across an immense, unguarded, ethereal border, Canadians, cool and unsympathetic,
    regard our America with envious eyes and slowly and surely draw their plans against us.

    I gather you are another Democrat determined to defend Hitler by trivializing him to just being anyone you disagree with. The defense of Hitler in this way that the Democratic Party and many Democrats on this forum seems fanatical.

    At least you can cheer that Hitler-Obama is gone, being he deported more than Bush did and gave speeches about how we have to keep illegal immigrants out of the USA.

    You're slightly incoherent.

    Are you saying Trump should resign because there are dozens of Mexicans protesting? That makes no sense.

    If Reagan had resigned because of protestors, the Cold War wouldn't have been won in 1989.

    And if he'd resigned in 86 due to Iran-Contra, thousands of innocents would have still been alive in Nicaragua...

    So far as I can tell, you've earned yourself a distinction - no other Liberal has risen to support Mexicans protesting US policy or, for that matter, you.

    Well done :roflol:

    I've earned that distinction by educating poor and narrow perspectives of the brazenfaced mass members who despite consuming our valuable O2 by routinely breathing in and out ignorance everyday yet choose to laugh at their plain idiocy. These are including but not limited to many supposed leftists, all racists and bunch of fascist Jews... So I'm actually doing a big favor to the planet earth by putting some members of the mass in place for good and making them breath out less bs. Then peace it is...

    Why do they protest his new couple hundred miles of fences?

    We Americans should be protesting the waste of money and impending cost increases in taxes and groceries.

    Im shocked you know such word exist. But believe me, pronunciation of that is not as hard to be able to understand what it really means. So take the easy path and say communism as much as you can... And it's free to do so too... How awesome right?

    HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!! You really think Mexico would start a war with the US over a border wall? Maybe you should check out the Southern Border wall that Mexico has, and then ask yourself why they are opposed to us having the same thing. Both Clinton and Obama campaigned on tougher border enforcement, the problem is that they said it just to get elected...Trump is going to follow through on this promise...By the way, the border wall was approved during the Bush administration, with a Democratic controlled Congress...So where is your outrage at the southern Mexican border. Where is the outrage at Obama and Clinton...Oh wait, it's just because you hate Trump.

    Mexicans are just upset that the wall will force them to deal with the cartels. How long before Mexico begs Trump to bail them out?

    I don't get the issue. People can still cross at border crossings, like normal folk would do.

    Protect the state border is the responsibility of the president of any country.
