Aren't everyone else's retorts except for yours?
Go back to your hole.

I clearly don't think a massive wall along the entire border is needed or practicable.  Folks seem conveniently to forget that part of my posts.   In my view, this should be any all or nothing scenario.  Have a suitable barrier customized for the location and how readily the area is traversed.  

Walls can work.  They also can fail.  It's not a mystery.  Build them where needed, do something else where they are not.

I think that funds will be provided this time to do just that.

No matter what kind of hodge-podge of barriers you create, there will always be a path of least resistance, and that's what they'll use.  Hopping a wall, cutting a fence, climbing a mountain, digging a tunnel, and on and on and on.

Legal immigration needs to be fixed first.  That will take a bulk of the illegal immigration problem out of the way.  

I guess I deem a wall absurd because the perceived damage is already done.  Why hold back a snowball after the avalanche has already happened?

It's easiest to argue against a position NOBODY has asserted here.

There is a big difference between 200 thousand and 3 million.  Im going to enjoy watching you self destruct when the wall is built and illegal immigration is under control.  We dont need to change existing laws we need to follow them.

This country needs to do whats in its best interest and closely monitoring and controlling immigration is one of those things.

The era of purposely flooding this country with illegals so that they can be given amnesty and vote democrat will be over.

Why would I self-destruct?  This doesn't directly affect me.  
If immigration is "under control," great.  

Your last point shows all we need to know.  You're a gullible parrot.  Congrats.

I am pretty sure everyone here understands no matter what we attempt, SOME illegal immigrants will gain access.  Nobody every suggested anything different.

MOST folks here think limiting that by the most cost effective and efficient means possible is worth some effort.

It's a STRAW MAN to note that folks will be able to get by a wall.  Nobody suggested otherwise.

Okay, build the wall that lets people through.  Great plan.

Fantastic.  What's your evidence?

You seem consistently unable to understand, or read, any kind of nuanced proposals or posts or suggestions.

It's almost without exception.  But maybe the issue lies with nearly all posters here, not you.

There are many items I could post as evidence but I just chose one at random and you can research on your own
