fadskier said:No, you see the wall prevents people from coming here illegally so they go other places...hence, more wall, less places.quash said:That's an argument against it, not for it.fadskier said:Surely your're not that off. He's saying that the wall prevents people from crossing so they try to cross at more dangerous places where there is no wall.quash said:Work = dead people.fadskier said:If he had stopped there, he might've been okay; instead, he continued and ended up accidentally making the case for those who argue that walls do in fact work: "And it has pushed migrants and asylum seekers and refugees to the most inhospitable, the most hostile stretches of the U.S.-Mexico border, ensuring their suffering and death."quash said:He says that it doesn't... so there's that.fadskier said:He also says that the wall works in El Paso...so there's that.Waco1947 said:Wichitabear said:

Ahhhh, he's been to all the counties in Texas. He's been to all the border counties. He lives in a border city. So you're wrong.
In other words, the walls do deter illegal crossings where they are built. It's also worth noting that those "asylum seekers" O'Rourke references would be deliberately attempting to cross at illegal points instead of seeking out legal ports of entry where they would apply for asylum. In other words, they are not would-be "asylum seekers" by definition: they are would-be illegal aliens
Ok pal.
Don't be blinded by politics.
Con. O'Rourke opposes the wall.. He said he opposes the wall, did you miss that part?
