Yes, in the U.S. but when your county shares over 60 miles of border with a different country FEDERAL

I don’t have to move. I don’t like your Rubes in Maybury type who think they know it all but show their ignorance.

Except for San Diego or NYC I wouldn’t live anyplace else if you paid me

and I have been involved to change this starting with my original support for the candidate who has been up front and for years on this issue.

I have been in counter demonstrations including our group countering over 50,000 Mexicans marching and rally.

and I could go on.

I am also ret. from Gov. legal work. Have delt with this first hand.

Golly gee whiz, Barney...

I made a mistake. I said I thought you were intelligent. Instead, I revise that and will substitute arrogant, or just plain ignorant, to properly describe that horse shiite! I guess being a fedrool lawyer qualifies you just fine...

I've been to San Diego. I've been to NYC. Believe me, San Diego is no NYC! LaJolla isn't Brooklyn. Chula Vista isn't on the Island. Watts isn't close to Harlem.

Kinston, NC has a lot better people than would seem to populate your neighborhood. At least they have manners. Plus, they have a secret weapon...

Since San Diego has the largest number of active and ret. military, I will take them for neighbors anytime.

Then, for God sake, suffer in silence. Your choice is to remain in the war zone.

I'll going down next weekend to enjoy some pig with some of my retired Marine friends near Kinston! I'll know who has my back! I know they don't just talk crap!

I and millions of others want the border fence completed.
A federal issue by law to complete.
You really have a personal problem. Guess I would have also if I had to live in poduck.

I live in rural WV, about 1.5 hours from DC. I can have all the big city I want. I can visit the Smithsonian, or check out any number of events to amuse or educate. I dine in some of the best restaurants in the world.

Instead of living there, I got to watch 7 bunnies frolic in my yard, after 3 deer walked past, this morning. Spot and I went walking 7 miles along the Tuscarora Trail, after breakfast. I caught 2 trout in the river behind my cabin, and had them for dinner last week. My biggest challenge is getting rid of the groundhogs. They do make good target practice.

I travel quite a bit. I've met some pretty neat people wherever I go. I'll not bother to stop in your neighborhood, and will try my best to advise others to spare themselves from the squalor you described as San Diego...

It's regretful about your small, closed mind...

I live in San Diego, WE here live it first hand.

Theory is one thing, we live the reality

There is also a war going on 15 miles south.

Troops in the streets, killings, kidnappings, beheadings.

The drug cartels and the corrupt Mexican officals make the streets of Tijuana look like Bagdad 4 yrs ago.

Read much?

There's plenty of cheap labor down there. Why not hire all the illegals, pay them decent wages, and let them build from the Mexican side! Use the incarcerated ones from all us prisons, on the US side, for free, then send them home.

Have the SeaBees and the Construction guys from the Army and Marines to supervise, and provide technical and logistical support. Place armed troops along the border to sort them out!

I would think a lot of folk would go help for free! Plus, a few judges could assign some wayward yutes to help alongside the rest.

We should make it a national priority, but Jorge won't go along, and Juan wants to play in the La Raza sandbox!

A bob of my head to you, Bobalu. You have an eagle eye. Thanks for catching the mispelling and letting me know. It's been corrected and I blew the "Z" in where it belongs.

If memory serves, the suit was for “fast tracking” the border fence and bypassing imminent domain, environmental regulations, and other red tape. The government should do the same thing immediately for oil exploration.
