quickly imma say build the wall, a majority of people able to illegally enter and commit crimes and/or try to live here is through the border, the wall will stop any land illegal immigration, and people coming in by seas and planes is unlikely, you expect a plane to land far from civilization and then for them to track some sort of town/city and try to blend in, and that is without the plane crashing rather than landing? i'd think not, but yeah build the wall, deal with illegal immigration.

We already know that the current design of the wall is incredibly easy to breach.

The majority of illegal immigrants enter legally through border checkpoints or airplanes into airports and then they overstay their visas, but sure, a wall will stop them.

Was this the thread that exploded into a huge debacle about whether the army should shoot people attacking the wall or was that another thread?

Is it time for round two?

No, that's not the problem at all. The problem is that ignorant people think there needs to be deterrence in the first place.

Granted, I'm not one for letting dangerous criminals in, but they're a MINORITY of the people coming in. We SHOULD NOT be spending this much money keeping out innocent civilians who are just looking for a better life.

So instead of admitting that's the problem, you and people like you lie about it.

So I take it you're not aware, then?

But it isn't a relative one.

Relative deterrence is like having a dog, If I have a big ol' loud dog, a burglar is more likely to pass on my house to attempt to burgle a house without a big ol' mean dog.

This doesn't work with something like border protection, a migrant cannot pass on to the other United States next door that doesn't have a wall. Therefore, he'll continue attempting to enter.
