It's obvious to me that Trump's intention is to create a new scapegoat to blame all Amrericas problems on. Not just illegals but ALL minorities.

The main focus of people who support the criminals are saying that building a wall to help enforce American immigration law is racist?
Honestly, I haven't heard people make that claim. You might be projecting a bit.
As far as building a wall it is an utterly f#ing stupid idea that would do nothing to curb immigration, but it would be a huge waste of tax money and an embarrassment for this nation. An 80 billion dollar 20ft wall easily defeated by a 21ft ladder.
what makes it a stupid idea? It's how every country on this earth protects it's borders.
With walls? Where?

I thought you were going to say that people that come from corrupt diseased cultures never adapt to ours, because that is what happens, instead each and every one brings a bit of their country here. My neighbors are from El Salvador. Nice folks for the most part but many extended family members are here illegally and guess what , They have gang connections. The same gangs that they were affiliated with back home. Mara Salvatrucha and calle 18 and this is the case for every one, sooner or later friends and family follow and bring the filth with them.

My philosophy is simple.
As long as there are homeless American citizens living on the streets, there should be no immigration. Period.
Take care of your own first and then worry about the other "3rd world citizens".
Just saying.

Here's the problem with that, if we open the doors wide open and let everyone trying to escape in, along with the very people predating on them, since no way to sort them from your escapees, we suddenly become exactly the same as the very place they ran from.
That helps no one and hurts everyone. By having a strong border, yeah people have to wait, but at least those that do get to move somewhere better, and not somewhere their problems are following them.

Your point is valid and compassionate, but I have to respectfully disagree.
We are either a Nation of laws or we are not. I can't disregard certain laws to better myself, why should they get that opportunity?
Some laws need amending. We amend laws all the time. Maybe we need to amend immigration laws so that people who are suffering in 3rd world countries get an easier and quicker path here.
