    the turd hole that is south/central america is the direct result of a very conscious, very intentional american imperialist hand in foreign politics spanning decades. if you actually read history U.S. and South American relations/sabotage you would be singing a different tune. it's easy to fling a turd into your neighbors yards and complain about the poor hygiene of the everyone around you, cleaning yourself of any responsibility and conveniently contracting selective amnesia.

    I'm kind of undecided on border policy. I think immigration is fine, but we have a population crisis at some point. I don't know what to do about it. I think it's the best policy to be fair and just to everyone though. So yeah. It sucks but you have to draw the line and say "Ok, this many new citizens per year" or something like that. I haven't a clue if that's PC or not. But my thinking is not to open the border so that everyone can come and just sort of leech off of America. I'm actually a little bit frightened of that. I just don't think a wall will fix anything. And I don't trust the intention behind building it.

    Mostly, I think it's for looks. It's being done maliciously to stick a thumb in the eye of the poor, helpless, innocent immigrants who have done nothing but attempted to better themselves by coming to the United States, and that is something we cannot allow to happen.

    Didnt think youd be one of those. No matter what happens its Americas fault types.

    Spanish were dicking around in the south close to 200 years before US even existed

    And they started off with a more advanced native population

    We will seperate it into 3 main periods

    The first Spanish settlement in the Carribean 1493 through to 1775. The US didnt even exist in that time frame

    1776 through to 1947, The CIA didnt exist in that time frame

    1947 onwards.

    How does North America end up being sweet. Yet central and south america, the whole continent ends up a shithole

    ....all because of the handful of times in the last 50 years the CIA help the locals snuff out whichever leader was the biggest commie.

    The current state of Brazil, Mexico, thats Americas fault? What a load of shit

    Commies and fascists in Argentina, Chile, thats somehow Americas fault?

    Mexico's president Obrador is a hardcore socialist. We need to build the wall to keep American millennials from escaping to Mexico.

    In response Mexico recently opened a military base near Cancun which should quell the violence, and they will even have MPs patrolling the beaches
    like they do at other Mexican resorts.


    Besides 85% of those killings are brown on brown violence between warring drug gangs, not brown on white violence like you've suggested.

    so the wall would sufficiently create job before and after as you need to man the long wall I'm guessing and it has the potential to stop drug cartels, or at least diminish the frequency.
    on the con side.. it costs money and since trump proposed it most people are against it.

    Personally I wouldn't build a wall, I'd build a big moat, like I'd full just dig up where they want the wall and make it a big ass deep moat, there's enough water running California and Texas to easily keep it filled. Make it into a big ass natural marine habitat.

    the shutdown isn't about the wall, the wall is about making an excuse for the shut down.
    the shutdown is what he wants. let him buy a lot of spray cans of gold paint so he can paint it gold, and put his name on it.

    we need to stop confusing what is real. mexico is more america then every immigrant from europe.
    the only native american, is a native indiginous american. and the meritime archaic weren't 'white' either.

    We took by conquest of Mexico our two states with the Highest GDP, California and Texas, each producing more GDP than Australia.

    So we plundered two Australian + economies from Mexico, and have let them be the front line in our drug war for the past 50 years.

    The current state of Mexico is at least a little bit America's fault. They've also maintained all their government services in 2019, so...
