Slightly? That's an understatement.

Absolutely no-one has been advocating segregation, and having borders isn't inherently right wing, just like supporting immigration isn't left wing.

Lies by the governments on both sides of the atlantic led us into the war with Iraq, get it right. There were a lot of expert sceptics out there throughout the whole thing.

It should be easy enough to google but since you want to be lazy... At least 6 children have died in ICE custody in roughly a year I believe? I believe before that, a child hadn't died in custody in over ten years. At least six children in a relatively small time frame, that should set off alarms, should it not?

Also, The US citizen who was falsely detained in one of these camps for three weeks confirmed reports of abuse, he wasn't allowed to shower for his entire stay and they withheld things that should have been covered in the Flores Agreement. We also know from people who have inspected the sites that the guards are abusive (they bragged about it to these inspectors no less) and that prisoners have been forced to drink out of toilets because water is otherwise withheld. Children and Pregnant women have been forced to sleep outside without cover or alternatively on the floor and families are STILL being split up for no good reason. Plus you have the whole hidden group that had thousands of ICE members posting racist memes and laughing about the abuse the people they should be caring for have suffered.

You can either accept it or deny it but all it takes is for you to actually do a google search for yourself to see it but I don't think you want to see it.

As I said before, I refuse to do research for people who will disregard it based on their agenda.

It does...
Borders and walls are not the same thing...you can have borders without walls.

Sure this was a storyline on house of cards, except the emergency fund as raided to..well help people get jobs (or/and the president stay in power, or something) rather than it pretty much literally being pissed up the wall

Even before the Kevin Spacey scandal, that show suffered for the fact that reality had become stranger than fiction

True, but using physical barriers to mark and maintain borders isn't akin to segregation.

Segregation is typically used to describe separating races within the same country (like the busses), not separating different countries.

Segregation means to separate one group of people from another.

They're allowed to use legal routes to get from one country to another, using barriers to uphold boundaries between countries shouldn't be classes as segregation, unless we're going to say the concept of having individual countries is segregation.

THE ACTUAL SEA hasn't stopped illegal immigration into the uk but people are arguing blue in the face that a 18ft wall is going to obliterate immigration into the US by 99%? Its a joke. But I just can't even find it funny any more because its so ****ing sad.

See the stats I posted upthread. Walls have historically worked in other countries, so if a wall was designed for that specific area, no reason it wouldn't work.

And the sea isn't much of a barrier if people keep bloody helping the illegals break in

You have two possibilities.

One, the whole thing is fully patrolled from end to end. Which has been confirmed to be logistically impossible in terms of cost and manpower.

Two, the whole thing isn't manned and its constantly being punched full of holes and in an endless cycle of repair for a couple of years, costing more billions, until Trump is out of office and repairs are abandonned leaving a big ol' untold-billions-of-dollars lump of metal swiss cheese running across the US-Mexico border.

Experts know this. COMMON SENSE dictates this. But nah who needs experts or common sense let's just get that bad boy up yeeeeehaaawwww show dem Mexicans whut frr.

They can't realistically afford to properly man or fully maintain it even in the short term and definitely won't as soon as Trump is out. It is a colossal, if not criminal, waste of funds on a vanity project.

Maybe instead of a wall they could do the opposite - a moat

Make it twelve feet deep, twenty feet wide, and use the dug up mud (or whatever) to build a barrier on the USA side. Fill the moat with alligators <3

Barriers that serve no purpose other than a futile attempt to "keep the brown people out". Damn right it is.

They don't have to be kept out, they just need to migrate in a normal way

It's a bit weird you're bringing skin colour into it, when that's not the issue.

We just wanna keep them out of the detention centres

Really? Because the only immigration Trump has a problem with is the migration of non-white people. To state otherwise is a lie.

Hence the only solution he has is to build a cage around Mexico.

The fact you know this is a ridiculous comment via use of that smiley is actually sick and not funny in the slightest.
