If we actually BUILT the wall would you be willing to negotiate the fate of those here?

You ever see someone learn from a mistake by removing all the consequences of that mistake? If you tell someone not to steal and then let them keep the property in front of their friends what message did you send? Unfortunately, the best plan is to make examples of them and let anyone who might try see the price that is exacted.

Make examples of kids. Right.

How about the kids in gangs? How about the kids in trouble with the law or with priors? That kind of generalization is an example of stupidity.

Aren't most generalizations about groups of people?

Groups yes, ideologies no.

Remember when that guy threw the show at Bush?

Then people in Iraq built a shoe monument until the Government made them tear it down.

The shoe monument made more sense than a wall monument to stupidity.

As long as Pink Floyd is still around to play when they tear it down.
