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.

They are both in the Constitution, and doing something about border security only means observing Constitutional mandate. Not so much for gun control.

ETA: To the OP. I regret that I have but one up vote for you, sir.

Not a national emergency and can't be fixed anyway as long as India and China are allowed to pollute the hell out of the atmosphere. The climate has always changed throughout time regardless of emissions.

I have around 20 guns. Not one has killed anybody. They are left unattended by themselves all day. Maybe they are faulty?

Do you even Constitution bro? Illegals crossing the border do not have a right to be a US citizen as I have the right to own a firearm.

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.

If you do the math on that, that's still 10 fewer per day on average than the number posted in the OP from opioid deaths.

And, like other posters have said, not including suicides at the very least would be prudent.

Another example of a well reasoned, rational argument.

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.

You do realize that the USA has significantly reduced pollution (out put) over the past 50 years? We are doing our part, the rest of the world needs to do theirs.

Whilst I'm working on those numbers for you Moar, why don't you research the firearm deaths from LEGALLY purchased firearms and compare them with those from ILLEGALLY purchased firearms.
