National security is truly needed, but a wall isn't the answer. Russia's claim to fame during the Cold War was the same. For anyone who thinks they closed the borders to just keep people in, need to think why we couldn't just walk in and chat with our long lost relatives.

I don't blame these people with either, but I have worked with some of the illegals and I have a different opinion of their worth. I once held that they were the bad guys. Not so sure that is the case. Guess that makes me a liberal cause I have compassion for them...If I suggest shooting them on sight, will that get me a better tag here?

I am not a liberal, but some of my views are moderate in my older age..

Guess...I need to pick my way through the shards very carefully or I'll get smacked about a bit in here...

The Berlin wall is as non-analogous as you can get because the purpose is as opposite as you can get.
