I just got a PM...

 ;D  ;D

Apparently he offered a refund.. Due lack of funds / donations ..

Please clarify...

 :D  ;D

False.

He offered a refund because GoFundMe.com forced him to.  94% of donators left there money in.  His GoFundMe account is still up and accepting donations as I type this. 

He is currently building the second section of wall right now.  Hope this clarifies.

What a great idea. So much better than all bureaucratic red tape and political hypocrisy that comes with the government building it.

I would definitely support the building of La Pared if i was a billionaire, and i'm not even a citizen of the land of Amerigo Vespucci.

I'm to lazy of a fuck to look it up.

Definitely TOO lazy to figure out the deal with too and to.

I swear there are, like, two people here, besides myself, who have this sorted.

“When I come TO Getbig, there are always TOO many posts featuring members who haven’t learned how to correctly use too and to.”

Sorry, the 3 articles you posted are fake news, and completely false.  Please, do not reference nytimes, cnbc, or Washington post as legitimate news articles.  They're laughable media outlets, with a terrible track record.

Twaddle is 100% correct.  The first campaign was called "We Fund the Wall".  When it changed to "We build the wall"  refunds were offered.  Out of the 20 million dollars that were raised at the time, less then 800k was refunded.  The Current campaign has raised over 25 million and to my knowledge is the largest gofundme of all time.

There is no doubt in my mind that a lot of people are concerned about illegal immigrants entering the country. I appreciate my Anglo Saxon heritage, but then, I have no experience being of another race or ethnicity. It is common to support that with which one is familiar. Trump capitalizes on people's fears and by being ridiculously outspoken.

You and I have a somewhat different views of circumstances and etiquette. What I see as rude and outspoken, you view as speaking the truth. There is little doubt that our world is changing and the possibility of a continued blending of race and ethnicity is real. Whether we should fear it or embrace it remains to be seen. We probably won't see complete homogenization in our lifetimes....certainly not in mine. However, it is reasonable and part of human nature to fear the unknown.

I agree with you that it will help.. But it would be very minimal..
But some get biggers / Trump Nut huggers think that the illegal immigrants won't find a way around the wall. it will not fixed the issue on a 2,000 mile stretch land..
We need tuffer immigration reform/ laws with stiff penalties and not waste all this money on a wall ..

Border wall = just a symbol of a broken immigration system..

 ;D  ;D

No security measure is 100% effective. I doubt anyone would claim that a physical barrier on its own is all you need. It's just an obstacle that will require time and effort to overcome, so it will funnel breaches to compromised places. That's how walls work. The more obstacles you present, the harder they are to defeat. Add radar and seismic sensors and you'd have a damn reliable detection system.  You could probably equip the entire southern border for less than the income tax revenue lost to illegal workers in a single year.

Part of the reason the immigration system is broken is that it can be completely ignored by people who simply walk on in. If you want stiff penalties then wouldn't it be best to reduce the incidences of having to apply them as well? Ounce of prevention, etc.

I once had to write down, for an old boss the difference between "No, Know and Now". He wasn't sure how to use them in sentences.
How do illiterates get promoted? The old way, ass-kissing.

So to bust his balls I once said "Oh no, now I know" he looked at me with the "crooked head look" of a confused dog. That was around 24 years ago in a medical device company machine-shop.
I see via Linked-In he is still there at that job, I quickly moved on in 1995 into IT and left to go to a startup company. 24 years later, glad I did...
