RBG and I very likely agree on nothing.

Add a little of that rolled razor fencing.

If only we had a wall.

Interesting and sure makes sense.

Seems like that new socialist leader in Mexico continues to cooperate surprisingly with Trump insofar as Mexico clearly offered asylum to them.

Then you are an idiot.

Or the poster just doesn't know what width each crew served weapon can cover effectively.

Mr President,

Move the 1st Infantry Division to the border, permanently. The Indian Wars are over and the beautiful corn in Kansas is tremendously safe. The garrison at Fort Riley is out-dated thinking.

Many thanks,

Sal

Fleeing poverty doesn’t give one Refugee status. And I think they are taking the violence with them. Their home countries can’t be that bad if they are taking huge flags from there. They obviously don’t care about our country. Except for the free stuff.

@realDonaldTrump ain't playing no games here. Train in Arizona heading southbound. 🇺🇲 https://twitter.com/i/status/1057477715991912448

There’s a lot of pushback on this video - they say tanks are not used for crowd control so the video must be fake.

I hope it’s true and that the invaders will be looking down the barrels of those M1A1 Abrams when they reach the border.

But I just hope that there’s not another Tiananmen Square stand off moment...

OT: When my girlfriend was younger and still lived in Beijing (she’s now a Republican American citizen), she rode her bike past Tiananmen Square the day after the confrontation. She couldn’t get close because the army had blocked off access far from the square. But she could still smell the burning human flesh.

You’re welcome!

But I’m not sure what part of my post that you’re thanking me for...

Who said the tents will be on the US side?

We put up tents in foreign countries all the time, right?

Why not Mexico?

“No way BP can detain 3-6 thousand”

Especially if they don’t know where to set up.

The military can set up tent cities with life support, and then surge to wherever they cross, to set up cattle chutes to bring them into line for tagging, and put them on the bus.

THAT is good to know. Would to God the TV pundits could give the same clearcut explanation.

tank move around all the time, probably headed to NTC.

this kind of action needs trucks, stikers, engineers, and airmobile, not heavy armor.
