A lot of curious people drive down there for the novelty, It's an unfamiliar and difficult area, They are looking around and at the same time driving. They just screw up making a U-turn and crash into a barrier or something in most of these incidents.

Just stop it. Can you read? I said it's less likely.

>Probably is, people get confused down there anyhow because of the street layout. It was a woman in the car which means it's less likely this is something nefarious.

So how are all these guards going to be funded then?

Also America spends so much on public education that teachers often have to purchase textbooks and other supplies out of pocket.

Cut spending from whatever else. Abolish teacher's unions if necessary.

But $25 billion or more for some ineffective wall to make xenophobes less fearful is okay? Then Mexico was suppose to pay for it, right? :rofl:

No, no. When people ram things with their cars, it's because someone was threatening them. They were just trying to escape and the people barrier happened to be in the way.

Surely there will be a video soon recorded into a radio shack usb mic that purports to show definitively that it was all because of some dude somewhere talking about redirecting traffic.

Its usually a good indicator of insufficient money.

So looking back at other presidents, people compare Trump to Nixion, but he seems like another Harding. They both promised on a "return to a greater era", were inept and had appointed morally bankrupt and corrupt cronies to cabinet positions. Are we going to have a Tea Pot Dome Scandal 2.0?

Crimes committed by Muslims will be proof of a pan-Islamic plot and Islam's inherent evil. On the other hand, crimes committed by non-Muslims will merely be the acts of mentally ill lone wolves who do not represent their professed belief system at all.
The probability of someone secretly participating in homosexual acts is directly proportional to the frequency and loudness of their publicly professed disapproval and/or disgust for homosexuality.
If Donald Trump accuses an individual of malfeasance without evidence, it is almost a certainty either he or someone associated with him has in fact committed that very same malfeasance to a greater degree.
