We are having a good argument on another board about border walls. Those opposed say it won't work even though every border wall constructed around the world has lowered illegal immigration. No logical reason given for their opposition.Quote from: "Herman"
I saw that. I wish they would just be honest and say, the reason they don't want to stop illegal immigration is because they are worried they won't be able to find anyone to mow their lawns for 15 bucks.

None of the border deniers can back up their opposition with a cogent argument.

It's only in America where there is opposition to border barriers. But, illegal immigration has financial benefits for some people and political advantages for the Democrats.

I do agree that certain sectors of the US economy are dependent on the cheap labour that illegal migrants provide. Agriculture, construction and hospitality come to mind. But, no where in the world has a border wall the size of what would be needed on the American Southern border been built.

What is the left so scared of? What is the worst that could happen? It doesn't slow down the number of illegal migrants? That seems highly unlikely though.

As was pointed out on another forum, the deniers objection is not that a border wall won't work, their objection is because it will work.
The Supreme Court allowed President Donald Trump to reprogram $2.5 billion in Pentagon funds to start construction on 100 miles of border wall in a late Friday order.
The five conservative justices voted with the government in full. Justices Ruth Bader Ginsburg, Sonia Sotomayor, and Elena Kagan indicated their full dissent. Justice Stephen Breyer proposed a compromise in a partial dissent.
"The government has made a sufficient showing at this stage that the plaintiffs have no cause of action to obtain review," the Court's order reads.
President Trump declared a national emergency at the southern border on Feb. 15 after Congress refused to appropriate sufficient funds for border barriers. Pursuant to that proclamation, administration officials announced plans to reprogram $600 million from the Treasury Department's forfeiture fund; $2.5 billion from Defense Department counter-narcotics activities; and $3.6 billion from military construction projects to finance construction of the wall.
The $2.5 billion for counter-drug efforts were at issue in Friday's case. That sum was slated to finance fencing in Arizona, California, and New Mexico. Government lawyers said those projects are priorities for the Department of Homeland Security, as they are meant to deter narcotic trafficking in major drug smuggling corridors. The administration moved the funds pursuant to a transfer statute that allows such reallocations to address "unforeseen needs," provided they have not been "denied by the Congress."
If the wall is ever built, it will be in sections.

This is from Canada. The Trudeau regime has turned 180 degrees on porous borders. This is entirely because it was so unpopular in Quebec and he needs that province if he is going to be reelected in two months.Quote from: "Herman"https://globalnews.ca/news/5786394/hastings-racecourse-arrests-cbsa/"> https://globalnews.ca/news/5786394/hast ... ests-cbsa/">https://globalnews.ca/news/5786394/hastings-racecourse-arrests-cbsa/

Don't kid yourself. People are still walking across the border and claiming asylum while they have a claim in the states.

All Customs and Border Protection (CPB) construction on the U.S.-Mexico border wall will stop by the end of Tuesday, according to a Democratic congressman whose district is located along the border.
"I received notification that in accordance with President [Joe] Biden's executive order, all CPB contractors have now been formally notified by CBP Procurement to pause construction activities on CBP self-executed projects," Rep. Henry Cuellar (D-Texas) said in a statement. "While CBP cannot speak on behalf of the U.S. Department of Defense or U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE), it is expected that DOD and USACE are undertaking parallel action on CBP-funded border wall projects that they are overseeing."
