How bad would Nancy and Chuckie be shitting the bed?

Would that be a "manufactured crisis?"

According to the CDC, that's the number of Americans that die every day from opoids, 90% of which come across our southern border.

How many speeches would Kang fricknuts be giving? How much money would Soros be donating to curb the deaths? How much pandering would Pocahontas be doing? How many Twitter rants would AOC be doing?

You fricking morons on the left and all or your faux outrages are pathetic and a clear and present danger to the sovereignty of our nation. You're more dangerous to the United States of America than any person ever tried for sedition or treason during or after WWII.

I hope you all end up in GTMO or on the prison ships.

44,000 Americans are killed by guns every year

The real question is how will y’all react when a Dem POTUS takes this precedent by Trump to declare gun crime a national emergency. Or Climate Change.

You conservative simpletons have a very loose relationship with factual statistics dont you? While your study from the CDC is factual you threw in your own nonsense about,90% coming over the border. 90% comes from doctor,prescriptions and can be bought over the internet from china arriving here by mail. The "crisis" is how many of you nitwits live in a fantasy world of alternative facts that come out the mouth of the Cheeto in Chief.

How much money is at stake for law enforcement, prisons, criminal courts, attorney's, hospitals, pharmaceutical firms,firearms and munitions manufacturers and morgues if we suddenly deprived them of resources from the drug running factory known as Mexico?

How much money is at stake from slumlords renting homes, cash car lots selling crappy used cars and trucks, WalMart selling clothes and groceries, home builders building homes, landscapers, etc... who all want to use the cheap labor and money of illegal immigrants?

Follow the money. It's where the resistance to The Wall starts.

The opioid issue involves supply and DEMAND.

We shouldn't discount either. I partake in recreational happiness, but I think most will agree that opioids are not a good thing to be in demand, and we should address that demand to help curb the problem as well.

Yeah, this post is somewhat tangential.

Edit:

You have to be dishonest with yourself if you disagree. Addressing both sides is the right play.

They will just tell you that opioids are smuggled through ports of entry anyway and not mules humping it in.

So no fence is necessary.

From legal ports of entry, which would be unaffected by the fake wall.

But where does that 90% come from? A large portion come from China, at least of fentanyl.

"Assault immigrant" legislation should be forthcoming.

Not by land. They mostly come in the mail. Why send a person across when you can just send Fedex the stuff? Yes, some will be intercepted but most will get through.

Your link does not support this.

As a matter of fact, the percentage crossing the border aside, your link implies that at least 25% of the overdose deaths are from "commonly prescribed opioids".

What about the fear-mongering moron who started this thread? Don't you think your faux outrage is pathetic as well?
