The shut down thread

Did I say your name or call you out Vah ? Before you jump on me with both feet you should know what you are talking about ..

Got it ?
Good , now take your assuming ass along .
You called him a liberal. Those are fighting words.
 
Trump needs to calmly drop the wall, point at the shiny object in the corner, and scream "ohhhh, what's that?" for like five days

Opposition to Trump emergency for wall nearly twice as strong as support: poll

Or he could build this. Here is part of the wall, 10 feet thick and 25 feet high, that Israelis have built to keep out the Palestinians, with the blessing of the American media and the Democratic party leadership, both of which hate, oppose and denounce any such wall on our border with Mexico.

Pentagon to send a 'few thousand' more troops to southern border

The Pentagon will send “a few thousand” more troops to the U.S.-Mexico border, Acting Defense Secretary Patrick Shanahan announced Tuesday.
Shanahan said the military is supporting the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) in its recent request for an extension of the Pentagon’s mission at the border. That request also called for more assistance in laying additional concertina wire and expanding surveillance.
“We’ve responded with ‘here’s how many people it would take, and this is the timing and mix of people,’” Shanahan said during his first press conference at the Pentagon since taking on the acting role on Jan. 1.
Asked how many people the Pentagon will send, he replied: “Several thousand. I’ll kind of leave it at that.”

Can’t have contractors getting hurt installing the gun turrets.
What if the gators that are going in the new river got tangled up in that stuff? PETA is ruthless man/woman/it.
I'm being serious, not saying you aren't though. Hard to tell.

I'd rather have the military here covering our borders than off looking out for someone else in never ending wars. Either be willing to do what it takes to end it, or don't go in the first place. We should have learned well enough in Korea and Vietnam what going up against guerrilla tactics in someone's homeland is all about .... and how it usually ends if you aren't willing to decimate the place to end it. I'd much rather see us put the Chinese in Africa, South America, Cuba, and outside their own territory in Asia on a boat and ship them home if we're gonna dabble in foreign affairs; better to end some things before they get too far along than have to deal with a bigger problem later..

It's really dangerous down there, ya know. How many guns you think they are bringing?

It’s not how many that matters I just hope it’s not those really really bad “ assault guns “ that can shoot those 30,000 a second bullets

I'm pretty sure that wall was completely paid for by the US taxpayer.
 
No Executive order needed.



I can't see any reason that Trump as Commander in Chief shouldn't be able to direct the military to do whatever it takes to defend borders. The Air Force has for years flown air defense missions to stop intruding aircraft, and the Coast Guard (and likely the Navy) has a similar mission regarding the sea. Customs controls goods coming into the country, and immigration handles people entering the US from foreign locations. Multiple agencies work to interdict aircraft and boats attempting to smuggle drugs into the US. There's absolutely no reason the military or military contractors shouldn't be able to erect physical barriers along US borders as a matter of national defense.
