Any documentary with the border patrol agency clearly shows that the areas with the wall in place are able to be secured, managed, and reacted to by law enforcement agents in a timely manner. The vast majority of illegal immigrants come in through the gaps and areas where there is no wall to stop them. A fully established border wall will not fully stop illegal immigrates but it will drastically improve the Federal Border Agency's ability to contain the flow, give agents time to intercept breaches, and at the very least minimize the problem.

Immigrants should be allowed into America. "Give me your tired, your poor, Your huddled masses yearning to breathe free, The wretched refuse of your teeming shore." By rejecting immigrants entrance into America, we set a standard that we pretend everyone is welcome, but all are not. The border wall needs to be torn down and defunded, unless we want to have our own Berlin wall.
@TheHillbillyLordRepublican6mos6MO
We should not welcome everyone. What about people who are criminals or who are too lazy to work?
@Cuz-I-Know-Stuff6mos6MO
Yes of course we will accept immigrants who apply LEGALLY but most of them sneak in. Most of the illegal immigrants come here to do illegal activities like selling drugs that's why they sneak in otherwise they would apply for citizenship. Also since they smuggle illegal guns into the US, building the wall will reduce that. It will also reduce crimes used with firearms because these smuggled guns are being bought by criminals who can't pass the background check that EVERY firearm dealer has in order to purchase a gun.

Laughable analysis by you. No one is against legal immigration.
@B5FVW3D2mos2MO
I think illegal immigrants are a different story. You're talking about immigrants, and not illegal immigrants. The illegal immigrants have brought so many terrible things over the border, and all across the United States. The only thing that would help these things disappear is a wall and a heavier military presence at the southern border.
They will find way to go over it and take it down theres no use expensive and useless USA is in dept for a reason
@B5FVW3D2mos2MO
This is the exact reason why there should be a heavier military presence at the border as well.
@TheHillbillyLordRepublican6mos6MO
We could use the money that we are currently using to help the illegals, and divert that to fund building a wall instead. I'm pretty sure in the long run using the money to help the illegals is more expensive than funding to build a wall
@9GNT3XBProgressive2yrs2Y
We first need to understand why people are coming into our country before we think about the border. They could be refugees of something undocumented, or they could be migrants for similar reasons. Building a wall isn't going to do much other than temporarily fix the issue. If people are desperate enough, too, they will likely find a way over the wall to escape any conflict or natural disaster that they are facing within their country if they can't wait to stop and ask for help.
@B5FVW3D2mos2MO
A refugee or asylum seekers would apply through legal means and they would be documented. If the wall is effective, and if there is a heavier military presence at the border, they won't find their way over the wall.
@TheHillbillyLordRepublican6mos6MO
if they really are a refugee, they should be trying to get in through legal means. If they are entering illegally, that means they know that they aren't really a refugee, and the US won't accept them in, so they have to cross illegally.
@9GNTFY62yrs2Y
America is a place that has always welcomed and been built upon immigrants. Now when people are fleeing their country in desperation, we want to keep them out?
@TheHillbillyLordRepublican6mos6MO
We only let the ones who are fleeing from their country due to war, not for economic reasons, and all the wars are currently in the middle east. There is no war in our hemisphere, so there is no reason to let people from mexico and central america to be immigrating to the US illegally.
