    • "nothing will stop the migrants except eliminating their need to come to the U.S. - eliminating the "free trade" economic forces that are destroying their countries and their ways of life and forcing them to migrate or starve."

      I find this interesting

    • This is really great. Good coverage of local residents and their opinions. Good to know that there's resistance to the wall in Texas, too, because here in Arizona it's also very controversial.

      It's interesting that Roy says in the video that 'the fence works well in Arizona' - it really doesn't. Just like someone else said in your pod, it slows migrants down, but for just a few minutes. and the hi-tech "virtual fence" doesn't work either. nothing will stop the migrants except eliminating their need to come to the U.S. - eliminating the "free trade" economic forces that are destroying their countries and their ways of life and forcing them to migrate or starve.
