Politics - The Wall to Mexico

Tweet

So, I am mixed Hispanic. Not so much that anyone can tell really. My mother had a Hispanic name before she married my father, but my father's Irish freckles and pale skin came my way so any name or usual indicators of my heritage is hidden in the squarness of my jaw and the thickness of my hips. Ha ha ha. So this business of a wall for Mexico has me a little raw nerved with how Donald Trump spouts what is on the line of hate speech. But even I hate to admit that SOME of what he says makes sense. (Not the part where Mexicans are bringing up crime rates and yadda yadda). While I don't believe that anyone should have to go through a "nationalization" process in order to live ANYWHERE (after all land is only land when any government crumbles), if there is an organizational method of supporting the masses that require documentation, everyone should be subjected to it. However, by building a wall, there will also be a visual feedback to the fact that our nation, has in fact, said, "we are better, we don't want your people here." What happens to a nice home when neighbors who are desperate to save their circumstances live next door? They want what you have and sometimes... they will come after you to get it.
