You have no problem when they take it for highways and roads. I do not see you out there doing anything about it. I just want my tax dollars to stop paying for people who break the law to come here illegally as we are spending hundreds of billions on them.
That's a weird claim when I have never said anything about taking private land for building roads.
Exactly, you haven't...that is my point. That is why you are only bitching about it if it has to do with Trump.
Your point makes no sense. We have never discussed taking private property for building roads. I've never had the chance to state my opinion about it. Yet you argue as if I have.
I got nothing to gain or lose either way if Trump has his wall or not. I got exactly nothing to say in it. Building a wall for what appears to be one mans ego and his racist reasons isn't exactly what I thought US would and should do. If he focused on increasing border security by increased funding to upgrade equipment used to search vehicles legal entry points, increase personell if needed, strengthen additional security measures that the ones working with securing the border are asking for, he would have a lot more support on this. But he wants his wall.
First of all, your information is coming from a Canadian source. Has no real information then what they are being told. So, lets go over some of these questions.
Mexico is not paying for the wall with new trade deal: Well technically it isn't going to the same accounts. I do not know if you know how accounting works but we will see in increase in revenue to the government from the new deal thanks to Trump that will still bring in over $5 billion increase. We just do not know yet how much of an increase this will bring yet over the $5 billion.
Illegal Crossings have gone down: So your logic is that they have gone down, but it isn't a problem? Even if crossings have gone down, there is still a huge problem with our tax dollars supporting these people in the hundreds of billions of dollars a year. Even the democrats says there is a border issue that needs to be addressed. They may not agree with the wall, but there is an issue.
Most illegal immigrants come across legally: You are right, but it seems like you are saying, well most of the illegals are here illegally, so lets do nothing at the border where we can't vet them. That makes no sense and makes you look stupid.
No terrorist threat on U.S. Border: This is completely false. There have been people identified to be with terrorists. Also, there have been numerous people killed in the U.S. by illegal immigrants.

Most drugs come into U.S. through legal ports of entry: But there are still a lot of drugs that come across the border. This is another stupid comment as you say, "well since most drugs come through ports, lets not even try to stop things at the border."
Majority of federal workers oppose a wall: I do not give a rats ass. I voted for Trump and want a wall and that is a big promise that he made and why millions voted for him.
