    Explain how Trump's Wall will be different from the Berlin Wall or the Wall in Israel. How will it "keep us safe"?

      Although I do not claim to be either a politician or structural engineer, and neither was Reagan, who was a politician, I have to believe that Trump has more than just a materialistic wall built up his sleeve to protect our country from illegal immigrants.
      If he would start a revamping of the naturalizing process and make them citizens, no wall would be needed.

        The solution is rather simple but it will cost employers and that is something Congress can't stomach. Fine the hell out of an employer who hires an illegal and double every recurring infraction and you will see an exodus very quickly. The Democrats will also block any of this as the Latino vote is becoming crucial in the current elections. We are indeed too greedy for our own good. We deserve to fail.

                  Trump's solutions are so simple that when he talks about them people don't seem to understand how he will begin to implement them on day one as president.  People are so hypnotised by the anti-Trump rhetoric that they can't hear what he says in plain English.

        I totally agree! Walls work best when keeping people IN, not OUT! Case in point - all of our prisons have pretty good walls. But they are manned with gun toting guards. Prison breaks are RARE. But the wall that already exists on the border between Texas and Mexico has people getting over it DAILY! There are not enough guards to man a wall that would span the entire southern border.
        We have got to find a better way of dealing with illegal immigration than a "wall".

              Mexico is a wonderful place, and I speak as someone hat does live there for winter months. It's not easy to become a Mexican citizen. Infact it is very hard and tedious, with most being refused.  They do not have the same leniency as the United States if you break their immigration laws. We need to take a page out of Mexico's book. They detain, and deport in good fashion if your paperwork is not intact.

      It's not meant to keep us safe from anything. The idea of a border wall is simply a (dog-whistle) way to communicate one's hatred for immigrants/non-whites in an effort to garner support from like-minded bigots.
      In reality: Net migration from Mexico has been less than zero for eight years now; undocumented immigrants arrive from many countries besides Mexico;  walls don't stop airplanes; 40% undocumented immigrants simply overstay their visas; immigrants commit far less crimes per capita than natural-born citizens; undocumented immigrants pay more in taxes than benefits received; American businesses rely upon immigrant labor to do jobs natural-born Americans just won't do; border walls force seasonal workers to stay permanently along with their families rather than returning their homelands during off-seasons...

          Or at least statements purported to be factual.  A little evidence would be nice, but it is going to be a tiny bit difficult to show that illegals commit less crime when every day the choice to remain is a crime, when every time they get under the wheel of a car they are committing multiple crimes, when every time they perform labor it is a criminal act, etc.  Or that the taxes paid by illegal aliens pays for the education of their children, let alone the rest of what they get from the system.  Or even the foolish notion that the migration from Mexico (not just Mexicans, but anyone crossing that border) is less than zero.  Unless forced deportations are counted as negative numbers?

          These aren't "facts"; they are political lies designed to convince an unwary public that unlimited numbers of illegal aliens is good for our country and for them personally.

            Your making things up doesn't refute easily confirmable statistics. Immigrants committ far few crimes per capita than natural-born citizens. I understand that facts have a well-known liberal bias - that doesn't mean they aren't true, no matter how unfortunate for your person biases. Illegally crossing the border and overstaying your visa are crimes - once - waking in the morning is not a crime. Driving wo a licence is a simple traffic infraction - not a crime - and many states provide drivers' licences to undocumented immigrants, so your characterization of immigrants as perpetual criminals is ugly and bigoted as well as counter-factual.

      The problem with immigration is the same problem of drugs.  As long as there is a demand for drugs, somebody will make them.  As long as there is a demand for low wages, people will continue to cross the border.  The funny thing is that the person who most screams about an issue is usually the person who most benefits from that issue.  I remember when Michael Huffington, a Republican, was running for office.  He was tough on illegal immigration.  Yet it was discovered that he employed a nanny who was undocumented.  Go figure.  All politicians and people are the same.  It's all about appearances.

      The wall will create for some a speed bump and others just an obstacle that can be overcome. Unless you deny those that choose to come here jobs and support to enable their choice, it will not make a difference. The gains outweigh the minuses. We are the problem by hiring them and providing ourselves the saved cost as our income. Tack on a $25,000 penalty for hiring an illegal worker and the problem will soon dissipate. But greed is so intertwined with our moral outrage that we seem to have already made our choice.

      A wall on it's own won't do the trick, as others have said.  But a well-built wall will slow down illegal immigration, and meanwhile will hinder foreign terrorist operatives from gaining easy entry.  But a static barrier DOES invite the intruder to find ways around/over/under it, so in addition to a wall there HAS to be a second more fluid line of protection. Further, our coasts need far better monitoring to protect from intrusion by sea.....the Gulf of Mexico is brimming with opportunity for that.  Finally, E-verify with stiff penalties.  I don't support Trump, but if he takes the office, I suspect he'll do more than anyone since Clinton to secure the southern border - Bush and Obummer are both advocates of weak border security and amnesty.  These policies will eventually lead to something or a number of somethings going BOOM, meaning we lose a city and thousands of American lives.

      There isn't going to be any wall, so the question is irrelevant. I see the wall as more of a metaphor anyway. It's a good way of understanding his economic and foreign policies. Keep out dangerous job-stealing foreigners, bring jobs back from China, etc. It's good old fashioned nativism mixed with protectionism. By building a metaphorical wall, "real" Americans will be looking out for their own interests and staying safe from outsiders.

      It won't keep anyone safe. But the root of the problem has yet to be addressed. A global capitalist system is what drives the wheel of poverty and desperation. It is ironic that the people south of the border must suffer the humility of seeking deliverance from the colonialist powers that created the problem in the first place. The proper wall to build is around the ruling elite, replete with barbed wire, and attack dogs on the perimeter. Or, to save time and money, we could just call Orkin.

      I think a well built wall will cut down on some of the migration, along with better border patrols. Plus hopefully Trump will make it easier for Mexicans to come in legally. It's only my opinion, but I think we have to take some steps to try to  decrease the influx of Mexican immigrants.We need to try to cut down on the drugs coming, and I am sick of my taxes going to undocumented immigrants. I Think it's time to get our heads out of the sand, and at least make an attempt to  solve the ongoing problems that undocumented immigrants are causing.  We need to take a page out of Mexico's book. It is very hard to become a citizen of Mexico, and they detain and deport with good speed any undocumented immigrants including  Americans. I live in Mexico during winter months, so I am aware of their laws. I have papers I carry with me anytime I leave my home in Mexico. I am not a citizen, and must only spend so many days in the country before I would be considered there illegally.

      I will take a crack at answering this question.
      A wall will prevent undocumented immigrants from entering our country.
      Our current law is such that once a person comes over, he or she is entitled to a court hearing...which takes time. In the meantime, most if not all are given a court date in months and released to the population where they disapear into the woodworks.
      By the same token, if a pregnant lady coms over, and give birth, that baby is automatically a citzen of the US with full priviledges.
      It is our laws that actually encourage people to coming here illegally.

      A wall, different from the Berlin wall, which kept people in, is to keep people out. There is no 100%. You are right that there are other means to breach a wall, such as tunnels...  It just has to work 90% of the time.
      This will send a message if nothing else that we are serious about protecting our sovereignty. In case you don’t know, we have not been serious despite all the politicians promising border security...at election time. They do not believe it on both sides of the political spectrum. They just lie to the American people and with a wink and a nod to allow illegals to flood our country year after year.
      This number of 12 million illegals here is a joke. The actual number is much higher. No one really knows because we are not suppose to ask or count them unless it is a census...which they do want it counted but just not distingushable from legal immigrants. Once they are here, they are considered immigrants. No distinction is made. If anything, they are priviledged. They are protected by sanctuary cities. Their children go to state colleges and pay in state rates... they reap all the social benefits of a citizen... they are not undocumented but have false documents. It is easy to buy a fake social security card or drivers license or passports...
      A wall will put a stop to the inflow or at minimum slow it by 90%.
      That is all we are asking. Once the flow is stopped, we can address how to deal with the ones that are here already and DACA... otherwise, it would be like 1980s all over again. We offer amnesty and 20 million more show up...

    This isn't about a "wall", it never has been. Regardless of what people may think, Trump is not a stupid man, he knows damn good and well that you can't build a 2,000 mile wall on the border, and that it wouldn't do any good if you did; I'm sure he understands the old adage: "You show me a 10' wall and I'll show you an 11' ladder".

    This is all straight out of "The Art of the Deal". Trump never planned on actually building a wall, he's simply setting the stage and establishing control of the negotiation. I promise you his real plan looks a lot more like immigration reform, more border guards, and a national E-Verify system with stiff penalties for violators. The best way to get that through congress (and sell the American people on it) is to have an "initial offer" that's completely outrageous.

    Everyone of a reasonable amount of compassion  and intelligence  in humanity realizes completely that "the wall " , a wall, any wall , is but one factor in  an immigration policy ,     The iron , inanimate  wall  is one factor and one factor alone .   All  means of immigration control  are necessary  especially given the southern borders issues , I just watched  a documentary about a  death in the desert .    In that documentary  a description of the numbers of deaths of desert crossings  of illegals showing the process of simply identifying  a dead body , who is it , where are they from ,  how the notification process works , or actually doesn't work ,  and how the difficulties  affect all involved .
    Many people , advocates of mass legalization especially  would  have us all living  in denial  that real  human tragedies occur every single day ,  that there is a data base of thousands of sets of remains  to deal with  right now and from all countries  , not just Mexico .   That hundreds of people each year die in these desert crossings , diseased , sickened by travels , exploited for the thousands of dollars  in carried cash  by those willing to hurt someone for that money . 

    So the "wall" ,  which will not  "stop "  anything in real numbers ,-is but one tool  to be used to at least slow down the migrating  masses . That , along with the changing tactics of strategic enforcement  can and will   at least help  to slow the traffic !   Like it or not the wall will help .

      41.7 Percent of Federal Criminal Cases in 5 Districts on US-Mexico Border (2015)

      The criminals (along with the good folks) are given incentives to come into the US illegally, and given amnesty because of Obama's illegal executive orders.   That case is at the Supreme Court against Obama, yet to be ruled on. 

      I do Google this stuff, and listen to what border patrol officers and sheriffs have to say.  They do not respect the Obama Administration for putting Americans at risk at the hands of the criminal illegal aliens.  MSM doesn't report on those criminals much at all...their views are dumbed down.

      I do believe that a strong southern border would cut down on crimes greatly, its just common sense.

          There are many families in America who have had loved ones killed at the hands of repeat criminal illegal aliens that cross the southern border.  But, you won't hear it reported on mainstream media.  They brainwash views instead about how terrible Trump is for wanting to protect America and its' citizens.  We might as well call it the Brainwashing News, because that's what they do...and we have plenty of their zombies around here.

            This forum is NOT about Obama. I specifically mention TRUMP! "Will the Trump Wall keep us safe?"

            So don't post here if you can't answer the question posed for this forum.

              Immigration and illegal aliens are two different topics m'dear. ...
              Trump does not want to stop immigration.
              What is that you don't get about "criminals or illegals"?

              Define "effectively regulated". You might be right that the borders have not been effectively regulated ever, ... but that doesn't mean that they can't be.  Having the border patrol officers enforcing the law on illegal entry again for starters would be good, yes!  And, yes a strong border with gates would help keep us safe.  Its only common sense, ... which I know many people are lacking. 

              Do you think people can illegally cross the border into Russia without being shot down?  (the answer is NO)
              How about the Vatican, the Rainbow House (WH) or Israel?  Fences, walls and security guards or agents work for protection and safety!

              This forum is NOT about Obama. 
              Anti-America Obama is one of the reasons for this thread.

    Donald Trump is only making promises, and hoping that people will believe him. What most people don't know, or think about, is that a lot of our border with mexico is not protected. It is mostly a chain link fence, that divides us from Mexico, and there are not enough guards to cover the entire region.
    It is very easy for people to just walk across the border, and get under the fence, and just walk across un-occupied land to get to people who might be waiting for them.

    What is not discussed is how many Americans there are, who are going into mexico and charging to bring illegals across the border. There is no way to stop that, unless every vehicle s searched from top to bottom, no matter how big a wall they build. They just won't have the man power to watch who is coming and going, especially at the busier city borders.

    Another thing not taken into account is Canada. There was a report that illegals coming from China, and middle east countries, are coming across the border from there, where there are no fences. There are worse people coming across our borders from Canada. Not, as many of course, but it easier for them to get here then people from mexico.

    People who have done harm to this country, and do things like terrorists acts come here legally by plane. All of the mass shootings lately, have been done by people who are here legally. So, making every immigrant legal, will just allow those small amount of people who want to do harm, a free ticket to crazy town.

          Tell us oh great Hillart disciple how is this a bad thing?  National defense against the Mexican invaders certainly qualifies as a reason to protect a few feet of border space.  A border wall won't require anywhere near the space you are so fictitiously using to advance your talking point.  No lawsuit will be filed since most people who own border property have been begging the gov't for years to do something about the steady string of murders, rapists, drug dealers, and perverts coming illegally across the border.

            The Coyotaje charge a fee of $3000 - $4000 to bring illegal aliens cross the Mexican border.  The women and girls are usually raped, some (children too) are sold into human traffic rings for unspeakable reasons.  This has to be stopped for their own protection, (its insane) because some are good people that would be allowed to come into the US legally.

            My question is why are all these people wanting to get out of Mexico so badly, that they would risk so much to cross into the U.S. and maybe get deported?  I just thought maybe someone has researched that and knows.

              I have lived in Mexico, and for the life of me, i can't understand why they want to come here.
              True, there are few jobs in Mexico, but no one starves.
              The motto is: Pobre Mexico, tan lejos de dios, tan cerca do los estados unidos del norte - Poor Mexico, so far from god, so close to the United States of the North (America).
              Mostly, the young men just came here for the seasonal jobs, then they went right back home.
              Now, the drug money is so fantastical, that they come to be rich like us.
              But Americans created the market! If we quit buying illegal drugs, then that market will dry up. All it would take is to make drugs legal and tax the crap out of it. Have drug clinics like they do in the UK and Spain.
              Americans created this mess, but don't want to give up those drug profits. Follow the money trail.

      Obama ordered border patrol agents to stand down and not enforce the law, so he is working with the Mexican Communist party and is a traitor.  The Globalists plan is to overthrow the United States while Obama lies to the public and tells everyone everything is ok.   

      We have drones that could protect the borders, too.

      This isn't an election about Republican vs Democrats.  The Globalist's plan is to merge Mexico, the USA, and Canada into one Communist country.  They aren't hiding their plans, its on the internet for anyone to read, its well documented through out history. 

      People also do not realize that Hitler was a Muslim. It wasn't blonde blue eyed Germans that fought for Hitler, he had 400,000 Muslims fighting.   The facts are there.

            Hello Austinstar,

            You prompted me to look around a bit with this statement; "...How do you bankrupt a casino anyway? That has to be the dumbest move by any businessman...."

            Are you familiar with the rules and regulations and fees and expenditure mandates that the state requires for New Jersey Casinos?

            I wasn't either until I stumbled across this NJ Casino Control Act & Commission Regulations link.

            Holy Cow! You should take a quick read to see all the extra taxes and stuff levied on casino monies and their operations.

            The only required payout percentage I stumbled across was the state-mandated 83% slots payout. I did find one source that stated NJ casinos had an average over-all gambling payout of around 91.03% of gross income.

            Crudely viewed this means that NJ casinos are operating their business' on about 9% of all the money they take in. Now that could amount to hundreds of millions of dollars - I don't know. But I do know that a 9% slice of the pie to handle operating costs and profits doesn't seem like your implied no-brainer gravy train to me.

            As a Maryland resident I am a little more familiar with MD's casino requirements, (which are higher than NJ's), and this year's news that all five of our casino's are in such dire financial fixes that they are asking for relief from MD's current requirements. Since all five are not owned by the same person or company, by your logic, all five owners must be real numbskulls to not be making a killing from their gambling houses.

            Or maybe you are forming your impressions from the old movie portrayals of the mob guys drooling over sacks and sacks of cash skimmed from their movie casino operations?

            Maybe I should look a little deeper, but I am not that sure it would be worth the effort, I don't think modern day legal casino operations are like the old mob days portrayed in the movies.

            So even though I think yours is an unsupported and inexact "everybody knows" statement, I will leave you to it. It sounds good as an anti-Trump comment, so have at it.

                Native American casinos do well because states ban competition.  I long ago earmarked the BIA as a socialist organization that does little to help those still living on reservations in poverty. But, the BIA spends billions a year.  It seems to be a revolving door of government corruption.

                It is because of good leaders who educate their people about the benefits of entrepreneurship who are being most effective at getting their people out of poverty.  And, the changing of people's minds to invest in themselves and their futures to break free of the reservation poverty mentality.  On average the Native Americans who are in business for themselves earn about half of what the average American does. 

                It wasn't long ago that Native Americans could not get regular jobs to get ahead. Because the government wanted to keep them on the res?

                So, there is progress but it isn't because of the paternal government, its because of heart.

              The Republican and Democratic parties don't exist anymore, they do not represent the people who elected them...DC is run by the Globalists, the politicians are their puppets.  Right now the Republican party is the Trump party.  The corrupt establishment on both sides now want Crooked Hillary to be president because they know she can be bought and will do as the Globalists wish.

              Trump is a manifestation (and he knows it is not about him) of the people's will to clean up Washington, to defend our Constitutional Rights, individual liberties, and our nation from tyranny... Trump is a phenomenon and that wave is only going to keep getting bigger!

    The Globalist Agenda represents a plan to bring all of Earth's inhabitants under the control of a single, global state. There is a small, but powerful group of individuals who are the architects and instigators behind the formation and implementation of this "New World Order". Using their influence through international organizations such as the IMF, World Bank, the Royal Institute of International Affairs (RIIA), the Council on Foreign Relations (CFR), the Trilateral Commission, the Bilderberg Group, the United Nations, NATO, and hundreds of other non-governmental organizations, the objective of these internationalists is nothing less than the subjugation of everyone on the planet as servants to a one world government (servants means slaves). A government run by the same small group of elite that have ruled the masses for a very long time under various guises. These elite are the descendents of those that ruled for at least the past 2 centuries - kings and queens, bankers, robber barrons, priests, and assorted subservient oligarchs and media representatives. Their desire for a return to a one world feudal state should come as no surprise to anyone who has read a little history. It is their nature after all.

    Native American casinos thrive because they are on federal land and treaties, lobbyists and Congress, etc.  Corruption and corny capitalism go hand in hand with no regard for the people.  Its a good socialist model, it only works for a few and those they decide should benefit.  Money talks! 

    Its the socialist communist way to burden private enterprises with one regulation after another. Then, what they do is demonize it when it ultimately fails because of taxes, higher costs, fees, and official orders.  Not to even get into The Federal Reserve and Wall Street.

    Trump was never demonized until he decided to run for president against Democrats.  Hmm!  (I am not saying the RNC establishment is any better because they are not).  Trump is taking on the status quo.

    I'm watching the whole trump and immigration thing. If he becomes President, he will deport millions of people. He will do what Bush did, when he added the military to the job market, and claimed that there were millions of jobs suddenly created, so it would look like unemployment was going down.

    Think about this for a moment, a good portion of mintority people in the Us own businesses, or came here with lots of money in their pockets. Some work jobs that nobody else want to do. If those millions of people were to suddenly forced to leave country, all those businesses and jobs would suddenly open up, and then he could say "See how much employment there is now."

    Everything he says is what the republican party wants to say but hasn't wanted to open their mouths to say it. They want an ever poor country where the poor depend on the rich to survive. A country where people will work for any wage just so they can afford to eat.  While the rich just suck up every dime, and live like kings. Which could be the reason why the stepped so easily aside to let Trump take the heat for them.

      Our country's , like ALL countries  leaders , are crooks by nature  .  The Capitalism that you so love to hate is one of the finest economic  basis' of ANY monetary  system in the world .   It's just that ours is protected by our constitution  against government infraction by massive  taxation and  mass civilian entitlements [ so far ].  Other counties are running to the U.S. dollar , quite the opposite of that which you state .   Those that run away are sadly lacking in Geo-political- economic success anyway.   The fact that  the U.S dollar was the last to enter  economic failure alone ,SHOULD tell you something .   Corporatism  in the form of free trade is what created America's ongoing economic success to begin with  .  Your country alone sure LOVES NAFTA  .  The fact that Canada is so attached to the US economy is  exactly WHY  Canada is  also doing so well !

      The only reason   America IS in recession is the continuing escalation of social  entitlement spending by a socialist reforming  President .   One who fails to see the  strength of our  unregulated capitalist free trade AND has doubled and will  see the tripling of our national debt .  For the most part  our economy has mushroomed in size , if not underlying strength , it simply needs less  social reforming .

        Vote for the person who best fits your wants and needs.
        Then vote AGAINST those that vote against your wants and needs.

    I'm a Brit, but this is my understanding of the situation:-
    . Donald Trump wants to build a wall to define the US/Mexico border.
    . He wants Mexico to pay for the construction.
    . Mexico have already refused to pay for the construction.
    . If the US wants Mexico to pay for a US/Mexican border wall, it will have to force Mexico to do so.
    . This means the US will have to declare war on Mexico.
    . Wars are expensive.
    . Wars have unexpected consequences; often those consequences are not good. I can't foresee any of those consequences leader to a more secure America. It's more likely that they will lead to a destabilized world.
    So I'll end this comment with a question: How on earth could anyone think that building a wall across the US/Mexican border will make the US safer?

      -thirdly  , if America gives Mexico  a hundred million dollars a year in foreign aid - how about we deduct the cost of said wall from said aid , we don't have to nuke them according to your plan .

      There are 28,000 American troops guarding the border in South Korea, ready to protect the South from the North.  Reports say S. Korea is paying for 50% of the cost for our military support.  Why they are not paying 100% for US protection of their border is beyond me.  We have troops deployed all over the world to protect other countries but we are not protecting our own southern border.  The Border Patrol Agents have been ordered by the Obama Administration to stand down and are not allowed to do their job to enforce the law.  If they were allowed to do the job they are trained to do and want to do, we wouldn't have illegal aliens pouring into the USA. 

      The Border Patrol has never endoresed a presidential candidate in all of history, but they endoresed D. Trump for president.

      We have civil unrest in America, protests, riots, and violence at Trump rallies by people who don't even know what the hell they are protesting about...they are idiots, and waving Mexican flags (and other flags), and burning American flags.   Anything wrong with this picture?   Its happening, but mainstream media isn't reporting it the way it really is.

      They have 800 CURRENT openings, yet can't get or find qualified Americans to fill those jobs!

      Apparently the more things change, the more they also stay the same. The illegal European immigrants got everything for free also. And I do mean everything. They stole an entire continent with vast amounts of natural resources; killing anyone who stood in their way. And whenever they got bored, they would round up the locals and rape their wives, sisters, and daughters.  They even had the nerve to put up a statue on Ellis Island, inviting their brethren to come and take what was left.

          There are many here on Hubpages who do not hesitate to erect a strawman whenever they are at a loss for meaningful commentary, which is quite often. On the contrary, I do not blame anyone for the past that brought us here. But I refuse to glorify an evil past; the foundation for this facade of freedom laid upon the blood and bones of innocents. And yes, I have nothing but utter contempt for those of any color or nationality who continue to honor the memory of tyrants and butchers, as such celebrations are a disgrace to all of mankind.

          Apparently, you have confused life and death with good and evil. If I should see the end of this abomination before my death, or if the end of this evil should cause my death, then let it be so. I will welcome the end under any circumstance. Because it is the end that will balance the past , the present, and the future. And so I would welcome my suffering, as I would be thankful for a good death and a glorious new beginning.

              Speaking of strawmen,  I spoke nary a word about reparations.  But since you dared to go even further off topic, I will throw you a bone. I am a professional musician. I love my guitars the same way people in Idaho love their guns. But if a man approached me one day with proof that an instrument I had purchased some years ago on Craig's list was actually stolen from the man's grandfather, I would not hesitate to give it back. It would not matter that I would suffer a monetary loss. What would matter most is that I would retain my self respect, and honor my ancestors by doing the right thing.  But there is very little honor among Americans, and without a conscience, it is hard to lose your self respect. This is why the thought of reparations makes many Americans angry. However, to the credit of a few, there have been white men who have returned land that they legally purchased  to the original tribe it was stolen from.

            Many tools of violence  used not only ON encroaching white enemies but  in  tribal violence by and against  tribal members .

            I Grow a little fatigued with the implications by under-informed , undereducated apologist drivel that American history  is somehow twisted  in recording the path of Manifest Destiny .   You now , The" BIg- -Bad -Wolf- - Columbus "  that slaughtered millions of Native American  innocents . Stealing their lands , raping their women ,  slaughtering the new born children , drilling oil and natural gas  wells in the remaining Tee Pee  circles. 

            While all along ,  even most native Americans  know the whole truths ,    For one  , that Native American tribes  were most often  of a very  divided leadership , were most often lead by two major factions within each tribe ,  one the spiritual leader , the other most often the warrior class of leader , both separate powers often divided in social-political views .   

            Many North American tribes  were so divided in opinion and  resolve  that they  couldn't even singularly agree on strategies  of attack against  this manifest destiny ,   most often  allying themselves  in divided , unorganized factions with  fractured leadership .   

            Todays under-informed historical apologist's really need to bone up on what remains of the   history actually written or at least recorded  of  REAL native  histories, even  BY native historians , by ALL historians and not just those that feed  YOUR agenda.

              You are the one who knows little of history, as is evident in your commentary. Your spin is also not up to par. The image you have displayed, along with your hyperbole, is meant to illustrate that overall the native people were warlike and aggressive, but the journal of Columbus, written in his own hand, tells a different story. The image I provided here bears his original text. And what was true of the Arawak was true of many of our nations. We were a peaceful people who respected the Earth and the wild life upon it. In the beginning, even Goyathlay (Geronimo) was a peaceful man. It is only after his wife,3 children, mother, and other tribal members  was brutally murdered by the colonialist Mexican Army that he declared war on Mexico, and later the U.S..

              To suggest that all of the First Nations were warlike and unorganized is like suggesting all Europeans were tyrants and monsters like Columbus or George Washington, but the truth is: they were not. Your problem is that you have believed in a myth your entire life, and when a more educated person challenges that myth, your narrative doesn't sound as sweet. Read and Learn.

                  Although Columbus was not the first European to set foot in the New World, it was only after his arrival in 1492 that the European Invasion began in earnest. But here you go once again! It is irrelevant whether he landed in the Caribbean or California.The Arawak were not unlike many Indigenous nations. And they certainly had more in common culturally, morally, and genetically with the Haudenosuanee of Central New York, and the Aniyunwiya of Georgia, than a Spaniard or an Englishman. I would suspect that a majority of Nazis never set foot in Jerusalem, but this did not prevent their anti-semitic evil from reaching out and contaminating the whole of Europe. Concerning your last remark: I must caution you to be careful about making such sweeping statements.

Because ,   In spite of the most recent REAL interest in the political , especially presidential races ,  The REAL homework for voters is the more local .........BORING! ......homework that has to be performed vigilantly  every single year !     America , collectively , needs to get off it's lazy derriere and get informed .   

    Almost all public political ,  ideological debate is  shallow  , under-informed , instantly bread of  miss-information , of agenda driven diversionary media tactic , by the two sided faces of political punditry and promise ,   Simply put  ALL of US  are lazy and stupid !

    This is especially present in younger  voters  , even and especially in college " educated" crowds , which in voter quality and  informed valuation itself means almost nothing today .  Problem is ;   most of you won't even finish reading this post !

    Liberals love to blame the tightwad wallets of the political  right yet if you  simply Goggle * up  the most violent places in America for one . The poorest inner cities  for a second ,  the greatest numbers of troubled minorities for three , And then look at who ran these cities into the ground .  All of them surrounded by liberal  walls   .......Yea ! I suppose virtual walls are a bad thing ,   

    By the way ,None of the above came from Fox.   

    Just why do Liberals have such trouble with truths  , I mean there is only one  ?

      Sheriff Babeu Talks Border Patrol Threats and Immigration - FULL NEWS CONFERENCE

      People are brainwashed and get triggered if they see a video with 'Fox News' on it.  BUT, the other MSM sites don't seem to want to let the general public know the truth of what it is like for the US Border Patrol Agents who want to protect and secure our southern border. 

      They want to stop Obama's lawless action without the support of Congress, just by a wave of his hand... Our borders are unprotected to drug traffickers, possible terrorists, and repeat criminal offenders...

          You don't even know my thoughts on immigration because I have never once posted them here or on any forum.  I don't intend to, other than to say that a wall would be outrageously expensive and would provide very little benefit for the cost, something conservatives claim to care about.  And if you think President Enrique Peña Nieto is going to pay for it, then you deserve the disaster that would be a Trump presidency.

A Trump Wall has been drawing a lot of attention to those areas even though MSM avoids reporting the truth, it is being told elsewhere.  Through history it has been a place of mass killing which is a very sad history for Mexico and the USA.   

        There are many people who care about the crisis in the Middle East.  You have to find the Christian ministry websites that are involved to find honest reports.  Open Doors and Samaritans Purse are two that I stay connected with the ME through. Otherwise you are right, generally people don't care about what is happening on the other side of the world.

          You remind me a lot of Donald Trump.  Neither one of you have a firm grasp on history. You both appear to be functionally literate, and so I think it it's due to a lack of interest more than anything else. But the biggest hole in your argument about Columbus is that I am not the one who petitioned the government to make Columbus Day a national holiday, which is of course, is a national disgrace. It appears racist Euro-Americans, Vendidos, and Uncle Toms are the ones who can't get over Columbus. Otherwise, why do they have great celebrations and parades every year? The answer is very clear: They can't get over Columbus! It is impossible for them to move on. Perhaps if the government wasn't shoving this colonialist crap down our throats every year many of us would stop talking about it. But as long as evil Americans openly celebrate the genocide of my people, then I will continue to speak out against it.

          The only way to make America great again is to lose the European name, along with a mass exodus of racist Europeans back to Europa, which is where they belong. Then perhaps we should build a wall around the entire continent to keep them from returning.

              I believe there are many politicians hiding behind avatars here on Hubpages. I believe this because many of you  cannot answer a direct question, or focus your rebuttal on specific points previously made. But I am a tireless performer, and so I will try once again.

              Some years ago a group of neo-Nazi's (I believe in Milwaukee), sought a permit to march in full regalia through a predominantly Jewish neighborhood. I am not Jewish, but I have German blood. In spite of my German ancestry, I was outraged that the miscreant Nazi's had the inhumanity to even suggest such a thing. And so it should be understood that being a member of any particular group is not a pre-requisite for righteous indignation, nor on the other hand, a reason to acquiesce to tyranny, oppression, or public displays that are offensive and demeaning.

              But you have avoided the primary point I am making here. This particular argument is not about condemning anyone for the past, but it is a condemnation of the present. This year, just like last year, and the one before that, the United States and the other colonialist nations on this continent will celebrate a criminal who exceeded the barbarity of Adolf Hitler, Pol Pot, and Idi Amin combined.  And this all got started when you began with your Donald Trump-like assessment of the so-called illegals, who happen to be my brothers and sisters. Now I ask you 3 direct questions: Do you feel that the people who are celebrating Columbus Day, marching in parades, etc. are not the least bit offensive? Do you feel that the sanctioning of this holiday by the  U.S. government is not the least bit offensive to all races? And finally: You suggest that I should forget about Columbus and move on. Can you honestly deny that the U.S. government, and the American people, should also do the same? You say I am living in the past by condemning the past. If this is true then it follows that those who glorify the past are also living there as well.

                I'm with you, I'm the one who was kicked out of St. Petersburg Florida for building a pirate museum with the major features of Columbus presented.


                Still we are in the same boat together and take pages from history for lessons, yet can't live there.  People living in biblical times and repeating it Insanely is the worst.

                How can we all get along in the now.?

                It is senseless to try to answer senseless questions  Wrench , But here's some clarification for you ,  The Columbus Day holiday is a shallowly painted, symbolic celebration of the discovery of America .  It is no more a celebration of Columbus'  time sensitive ,exploratory  journeys , his  treatments of native or non- native peoples , nor him himself .   It is about the symbolic discovery of America . A national holiday ,like many others , to celebrate the founding of a nation . You probably don't mind the paid holiday and in that  I compare you to the hypocrisy of Jehovah's  witness' , who profess exclusion from celebrating or contributing   but accept the monetary benefits of inclusion .

                If Columbus day so offends you or any peoples within all of the America's  , take heart , there are many other celebrated people that offend many others too , other than simply you but  you are not alone .  I for one don't like  St.Patricks Day , or green beer , being one quarter Irish  , I am offended by  America's shallow understanding of the Irish  and Irish victimhood in America ......guess what though , that makes me and my rant   just about  as insignificant  as your rant .

                Your  scathing rant  and dream regarding  turning back the pages of history , is another delusional one ,  ....Yeeaa !  Lets reverse the course  of history and drive the  Anglo-Americans  back all the way to Rome , that will work .........won't it ?  It's not going to be all that hard now  is it ?   As usual  you rant away  delving directly through the flaming ring of professional victimhood  , at the actual COST OF SOLVING REAL issues ,    hunger on the reservations , the spiking   of illegal drug use , meth , coke , extreme alcoholism ,  under-educating the kids ,  .................The far worse offence to American Indians today is the delusional placing of blame , the ineffectual  diversion of  positive solutions . Rant on !

    Hey Liberals !
    There are more  and more,  still , central Americans killed at the border crossings ever year AND BY WHAT , by dehydration  while walking for miles and miles  to cross the Sonoran desert in Arizona  on a dream and a prayer , there are more and more killed every day after their  being exploited by human traffickers after they've   been the payee  of thousands of dollars  per person  for a "guided crossing  " , there are more and more being killed every day  as mules for carrying illegal drugs  across the border .

    The exploitation  of illegal aliens  ,by there own kind  , is being perpetrated more than by anything the authorities do within the United States . WHY DON'T LIBERAL ANTI-WALL PEOPLE  EVER ADDRESS THESE DEATHS   being  further exploited by YOU !

    I would perfer the natives story about Turtle back Island.
    White are people of fire and creation
    Red or Brown are people of earth and spirit
    Yellow are people of air and communication
    Blacks of soul and water

    All colors must share or the turtle will roll over and the earth will die.
    I know the reds and brown have been hit the most. There will come a time soon that all colors are mixed, they all become brown and the spiritual age will rule the earth again.

      That is a lovely story. But the train has already left the station. The European aristocracy stole everything and then in place of the land, the gold, all of the natural resources, and our dignity, we were given Jesus, and admonished to be peaceful and forgiving. Integration and assimilation are the final stages of genocide. If you have not aligned yourself with these racists then that is a good thing. And if the shoe doesn't fit you do not have to wear it.

      It is the racists, the capitalists, and the Zionists who are the enemies of the people, otherwise, we do not have a problem with the European.  But many of us are tired of this evil that has lasted 500 years too long. And as you can see with the popularity of Donald Trump, we have many enemies here. These are soulless animals that are like locusts upon the land. They only live to copulate, and to collect wealth and material possessions; all at the expense of humanity and the environment.

      Hilary Clinton is running for president, and she has many supporters. And that is just as troubling as Donald Trump. If you haven't seen her interview about the assassination of Muammar Gaddafi then you need to watch the video on YouTube. She exemplifies the cold-blooded heart of the racist, imperalist American. In the video she giggles like a school girl and says," We came, we saw, and he died!"  And of course, let us not forget about all of the innocent men, women, and children who were brutally murdered during Bill Clinton's administration near Waco Texas in 1993. Hillary is part and parcel of a cabal of evil. When the Turtle rolls over, this blight upon the land will be crushed and buried far beneath it, and on that day we will know peace.

      Under the former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton the department misplaced $60 Billion.  Its on record, it happened.  She gets away with murder. 

      It shows the double standards of the corrupt Democrats.  They hold the Republicans to a much higher standard, except for it's corrupt establishment that gets in bed with them.

      I don't see how "The Trump Wall" will keep us safe from the corporate corruption in DC.

            I'm prepared, it's no conspiracy theory debt enslavement has been getting worst since 1971. Basic cost of living gone up 10 times and wages have not. If you think part times
            jobs means 4.7 unemployment rate, your just asleep when experiencing the American dream. If people think these worst politician candidate ever are going to pull out this collapse, your just sheelps. Go back to sleep here more shows on America gladiator. Hollywood and media has prepared you for the real thing to shortly come. I Look at Brazil, Argentina and Venezuela now. Japanese Priminester warns G7 of total global collapse, more small countries will collapse first then next big is Japan. Greenspan Ron Paul, and a 100s more. Many billionaires are taking out their money out of the banks. Ground zero is America holding on for their dear life with fraud printed money and most dollars returning home.
