You want to build a 2000 mile wall like that?
“I wonder how many folks aren’t going to bother reading the whole article and going just on the headline, condemn Perry.”
From MSNBC all you get is a headline. One liner left wing propaganda.
well, thats it, I’m taking the fence down around my house since it can just be scaled with a ladder anyways..... /s
how about motion sensor cameras hidden along (in) the wall....Gah, people act like they have no idea to keep foreigners from invading.
Wouldn’t one case of .308 do the job?
No need to deport 12 million illegals. They got here on their own and they will leave on their own when what they came here for, paying jobs, is no longer made available to them.
Would a candidate who promises to enforce current law such that employing illegal aliens becomes an economic and legal liability be too much to ask?
well at least we’ll be making them work for it, instead of just putting out a welcome rug.
>> Perry’s right.. we should however set up about a two mile wide DMZ, razor wire ans shoot anything coming across.
As a bonus, it would be a GREAT place to put a trench full of radioactive waste. ;-)
That's a good place to start. Until we have that in hand, talking about building walls is mindless blather.
Ok, don’t build the wall but then enforce our laws and prosecute companies that hire illegals.
Lou Dobbs said it best “These are not jobs Americans wont do, they are jobs American companies wont pay a living wage for”
I'd cut off the government spigot first. As far as going after employers, that could be the next step but at least employers getting an economic benefit from this is far preferable to taxpayers getting stuck with supporting illegals.
IF we need to improve methods for these people to come LEGALLY, then that needs to be improved.
NO rewards for law breakers.
Remember the source of this crap! If true, Perry is finished before he gets started!
Dirt cheap compared to the costs illegals cause by utilizing government services at all levels and especially education and medical care.
so since you cant deport 12 million at once, you don’t deport ANY??? So then what was the big beef about McCain and immigration??..... several freepers owe him an apology for coming down on him so hard about immigration
That right there is funny. How about a shovel salesman right next door? A fence with no one patrolling it would have more gopher holes under it than my backyard (and I have alot.)
Perry doesn’t want to build a wall even in easily passable areas....you’re jumping to defend him based on your views and quite frankly, he doesn’t share those views.
Gov. Perry has made the point that a fence isn’t the answer, that conservative ascendancy is. The Feds have allowed this massive illegal influx of Mexicans and others (periodically made legal). They flock here for work and for all the social programs offered by the federal government —which has tied states’ hands and tapped their scarce revenue to foot education and health care costs (can not ask questions of legal status). So frankly, Gov. Perry is right. We have to make those already here conservatives, secure the border (financed and fully secured by the federal government) and set up a worker program that works.
If we had built a wall along California’s border with other U.S. states, wouldn’t the rest of the country be in much better shape today — not infected by all their liberal nonsense? Just a thought I’ll throw out there.
