But when they're ruining people's farms, destroying fragile ecosystems, damaging already economically depressed towns, turning the United States into a hateful, fearsome police state, and possibly tearing people's families apart, that's okay, because it might keep a couple of extra brown people out of the country.
Chertoff has said the fence is good for the environment because immigrants degrade the land with trash and human waste when they sneak illegally into the country.
If that isn't the weakest, most limp-dicked rationale I've ever heard for anything in my life, then somebody shoot me. Are these people seriously running our country? Seriously? God, it's like they're not even trying anymore.
Fuck those fuckers. Nothing could possibly make me more ashamed to live in Texas than a fucking border wall. For Christ's sake. I have to stop now because it makes too depressed to think about it.

According to some thing I read or heard on the radio recently, it's only about 40% of the undocumented immigrants that come through the southern border. The majority of them are students who overstay their visas. Not that 40% isn't a big number but finishing this fence is going to cost a lot, directly and indirectly, financially and non-financially, and still not do much to solve the "problem." We have a saying for situations like this where I work: The juice isn't worth the squeeze.
