I didn't suggest it was, rather that Dave's idea of how perfect he and
his life are, is not necessarily correct.

My gawd you are acting like a silly old crone. I never said anything
about what I have and what I own. I enjoyed my job and was good at it,
and I made good money, and and I was able to retire with a good pension
at 53. Your little puppy dog Gary is around the same age as me and is
marginally employed in an unskilled labour position. The two of you
seem to be reveling in an infantile manner about your silly notion that
I did parking lot enforcement.Neither of you is in a position to try to
denigrate what I did for a living.

This is one time I am happy there are so many damned guns in the US of
A. Maybe he will offend someone who shoots him.

Actually, my health is pretty good. Yes, I had a rude surprise 6 years
ago and underwent emergency heart surgery. I recovered nicely and I lead
a very active life.

No, you're incorrect again. I figured the pitfalls out when I looked
at the signup and resisted.

No sadly I think many voted because they believed his claim that he
could bring their jobs back from China.

Not at all, if someone couldn't figure out what you had to give up to
use Fools Book, then they were in exactly the right place!

Yesterday, there were a police car and an ambulance driving past our
house. After realising that they weren't looking for me, I opened the
local Facebook group and found out what was going on. Very handy.

Showing off your money is as off putting as showing off your health,
if you ask me.

Even if it would happen, Mexicans will tunnel under it, catapult
themselves over it or go around it on a boat. Look at the influx of
people into Europe.

Yes. There's no stopping the hoards of rapists and murderers.

True, exacerbated by clueless politicians.

Yes, Angela Merkel: "We can do it". Half a year later: "Wait, we
can't". Sweden the same. So politically correct, naive and clueless.

I assume the wall will be high enough to stop airplanes too, as that is
how at least a third illegals get here.

I cannot imagine how anyone with common sense thinks a wall it going to
work. Waste of billions of dollars.

Maybe the airlines should start holding on to their passengers'
passports when they board. I have flown across the Atlantic often
enough to know the procedure. You show your passport when you check in.
You show your passport when you go through security and into the
departure area. You show your passport at the gate and then again as you
board the plane. Yet, people show up on this side of the ocean without
a passport.

True, but it appeals to simple minds.

I wouldn't say that. They were frustrated with the status quo and
don't understand the difference between a government that operates
within set rules/norms and a Putin type authoritarian government. He
thought everyone in DC would jump when he tells them to, but he's
learning even before he takes office that's not going happen.

Just an FYI, when Putin doesn't like journalists - he locks them up or
has them murdered. Trump can lock them up if he has the right
attorney general, but murdering is out of the question... and you know
he's afraid of real journalists when he calls CNN "fake news".

You got it! Even the cities of San Diego and Tijuana conspired to
build a tunnel of sorts... truth be told, it's more like a bridge.

OIC. You couldn't even figure out how to sign up. Pity.

the wall has nothing to do with an actual barrier. It is a symbol
that the supporters could and still do focus on. It helped to gather
them together and keep them focused. The candidate needed a rallying
cry and a focus for hatred and it did and still works. It amazes me
that his supporters have no clue how they are being led and fed.

Unfortunately that attitude, along with the old saw 'If you're not
doing anything wrong you have nothing to fear' has brought us to these
days where very little is private anymore.

I don't know about the hoards of rapists and murderers, but there is a
definite problem with the number of Mexicans sneaking across the border
and living in the US illegally. I can't blame them for leaving a
country with high crime and little chance of financial success, but then
you have to consider the possibility that their homeland is that bad
because if it full of the same people.

> True, exacerbated by clueless politicians.

The politicians are the people with the ability to enact programs to put
an end to it. Ours has recently showed some gutlessness. We had a
problem with Mexicans coming here and claiming refugee status. The
numbers were increasing rapidly. Our federal government reacted by
simply requiring a visa for visiting Mexicans. That requirement was
lifted last month and within the first month there was a big jump in the
number of Mexican refugee claimants.

Meanwhile, our prairie boarder area has become a common route for
refugee claimants. Last week a couple of guys from Ghana were found by
the side of the road after having walked across the border from the US
and had almost frozen to death. Both were severely frostbitten. One
lost all his fingers and a couple toes and may yet lose his arms, so
there's one that be making immediate demands on our health care system
and is pretty well guaranteed to be living on our welfare system for the
rest of his life as a result of having sneaked across out border
illegally.
