But it's not just randomly shooting illegals with a sniper rifle. It's shooting people who are in the act of trying to illegally cross the border.
This is an incredibly important distinction.
It's the difference between shooting someone when they are trying to rob you versus shooting them a week later. One is logical, rational and provides immediate action. The other is vindictive or vengeful.
If you try to cross the Israel border illegally, you will get shot. This isn't done just because it's a border but because of the threat involved with that border. It's why we have a southern border crisis but a substantially less problematic northern border.
You haven't justified your position at all here. What I understand of your position is that you are upset that someone would say drug dealers, human traffickers and some of the worst people in the world shouldn't be shot trying to enter the US. Am I understanding your position correctly?
I was clear: "My post was not critical of a border wall, it was critical of the quality and content of meme/message. I am a strong supporter of borders, including our southern wall. An armed wall, if need be. Always have been and will be.
That's very different than making insinuations and jokes about plugging illegals with a sniper rifle."
I was being very clear as well and I'm objecting directly to your comments on the meme/message. I am directly addressing your complaint.
This isn't a joke here. I tried to get you to realize this when I pointed out that this is exactly what Israel does and it's PART of the effectiveness of their wall.
What are you actually upset about here? The fact that people supporting shooting those trying to illegally cross into the country, bringing drugs, human trafficking, etc?
This is why your complaint comes across as really childish. It's like you want the result of it, but you are just like the coward republicans we have in congress who aren't going to do anything about it. We don't need more of this. We have plenty of people who say they are for strong borders but then get upset at the idea of escalating the enforcement.
I've tried to give you other real world examples of this like the actions you would take when someone is trying to break into your house. You shoot them. Why is this any different?
What are you so upset about here? Why are you so caught up in something that YOU would do AT YOUR HOUSE being applied at the border?

I understand what you're saying but I just don't agree about posting this type of thing.
Why not?
