There will be those who attempt to inject disassociated stats and plausibility that murderers were already headed up/down or try to juxtapose irrational equivalents into the message. To those that would, do you want to take the El Paso fence down??

When they talked about that last night it was an eye opener. Beto said people in El Paso are safe DESPITE the wall. Not sure if he really believes anything he says.

El Paso is right at half as many. 1.3 mil in Juarez to 650k in El Paso.

Meh, tough to get the right comparison here. Better comparison would be per capita murder rate of a city like El Paso, before and after Wall being built, and adjusted for national trends in the murder rate.

I'd be so pissed if I legally immigrated to the US from a hell hole like Juarez and then the US started letting illegals from Juarez flood into El Paso and turn it into Juarez. The reason people want to come here is because we have law and order and a relatively stable economy compared to the rest of the world. If we abandon law and order then we'll have neither.

The huge discrepancy in murder rates right across the border from each other show the culture of the people that would be crossing illegally.

A point you are not supposed to notice or articulate. It's racist.

It's truly amazing that those people don't care. They slaved for YEARS trying to become legit and all of a sudden, their cousin from across the border gets a free pass? lulz

And Juarez keeps slaughtering their own people year after year. And the beat goes on.

It’s impressive actually that El Paso manages to keep that crime out

El Passout has become extremely liberal in the last decade. Unreal how everything along the board has flipped from red to blue minus a rural town or two.
