No, fences/walls in local homes or even gated communities are logically sound analogies to border walls because as I pointed out earlier (and JR again!), the border wall is designed to keep criminals and other undesirable types out. This is also why many homeowners and private, gated communities have walls and fences around them.

Look at it this way: The U.S.A. is a sovereign nation with its own government and laws. As such, we could be likened to privately owned property. We're not public property that anyone on the planet can walk on at will, no more than anyone has a right to come unto my property uninvited and snoop around. Immigration is fine, as long as the guests (immigrants) are officially (legally) invited. All others can stay out!

We are becoming another Israel, building walls to keep out the Palestinians...we are not your sheep you know...your efforts to pen us in or out will always fail, we are not your subjects, to do with as you please.
We need open borders so, someday we can be like Syria, Afghanistan or maybe Somalia.

Racists rants...?

Go ahead, read thru my history since PA allowed me back...post all of my “racist rants”. I dare you...let the truth be known...

What, there is a thread, and you expect everyone replying to be in accord with building a wall across the entire south...? Threads are MEANT for there to be discussions among various positions examining the various merits of the position...when you use the ad hominem attack card you throw the discussion off track and lose the point of the discussion...

I think calling some here a “racist” or “anti-Semite” would qualify for a red card...just like calling someone a “jingo” or “bigot” would also...

But I also am aware of “in-group” / “out-group” dynamics on web blog sites...how often the “in-group” piles onto “out-group” position as a means of preserving group cohesion...the “out-group” members and their positions are often vilified here...PA is doing a great job in prevent the name-calling abusers from de-railing things...

...I am not a troll, anytime you want I’ll converse with you on a genuine human level without belittling your opinions...

And yes, the Berlin Wall coming down was celebrated because its intent to keep communism dissenters behind those walls so that they could not escape to freedom.
Those were good illegals.

I think all of you are being very unfair to me...go ahead, read all my posts since PA let me come back...post all the ones you think are racist rants...

And if this is all about Trunews and Pastor Rick Wiles then say so...
Nothing in my posts is racist...

There is nothing in my posts that would warrant your derision of me...you all just need a scapegoat to pile onto for in-group cohesion...please be specific about my so-called abuses of your sensitivities...

Now you're a psychologist eh?

in-group cohesion? I couldn't give a flying **** if anyone agrees with me or not.

I call 'em like I see 'em, and I've been calling you out on this FROM THE START. This isn't some recent stuff.

Now that others have been calling you out on it lately, MULTIPLE PEOPLE over multiple weeks, you can't just blame it on me having some sort of bias against you.

Maybe it's YOU. Ever think of that? Nah...
