Re: The new \"Berlin Wall\" to be dividing US and MEXICO
You want to come to this country, do so legally. Your comparison to the Berlin Wall is poor. It was built to keep people in, not out, big difference. Try looking at the situation logically, not emotionally.

Polls show that Americans WANT something done about illegal immigration and they disapprove of the way the administration has so far dealt with it. Here's very recent poll to show it.

Re: The new \"Berlin Wall\" to be dividing US and MEXICO
To compare it to the Berlin Wall is silly. The Berlin Wall was created to keep people inside a totalitarian system. The US has full right to protect itself from immigration from Mexico. On the moral side, there is also a lot of citizens of other countries that are more in need of finding a new home country than the Mexicans.

Thousands of really dumb ideas have come from Washington, DC. Always with good intentions. This is one of them.

Re: The new \"Berlin Wall\" to be dividing US and MEXICO
1.) A wall will not do much to stem the tide of illegal immigration.
2.) It's not about race. How can anyone logically conclude it's about race? Over a million Mexicans immigrate to the United States legally every year. So do people from nearly every other country in the world. The objections people have to ILLEGAL IMMIGRATION are that people are using services...schools, hospitals, other government programs....without financially contributing to those service. Contrary to the bs espoused by politicians that support illegal immigration, illegal immigrants do not generally pay taxes. Note that one does not pay federal taxes, and in most cases state taxes, until a certain REPORTED financial threshhold is met. There is a reason that in polls, 25-50% of latinos polled are against illegal immigration.
