A big part of Liberals hatred of Trumps wall is the fact that he promoted it as a way to keep those dirty Mexicans out of the country. The racism of it all etc. But somehow the argument against funding it has become "it's not the best way to secure the borders". So a big part of the Liberal argument against the wall has become "let us show you better ways to keep them out". How do things get this fucked up? It's not f#$%ed up as you say. It shows you people pretty much feel the same way about illegal immigration. As an aside, Mexican is a nationality and racism doers not apply.

Wrong. The Hispanic race represented by not just Mexicans but all asylum seekers is completely in play in this matter.

I find this human construct a worthy improvement to the traditional political spectrum model.

That is pretty close to what I got. Why don't we agree on more? Or...anything?

Maybe there should have been Contrarian listing I am going to take this opposite stand just because you took that one.
