dude, are you an idiot or something?
we need a wall cause the mexicans/brown people will come across the border and take all the good mass shooting headlines away from all the white males who do them now
it's pretty obvious
You think it's relevant to a wall? Cartels don't already have rings in the US? The vast majority of drugs come in through entry points. We already know this. A wall does literally has nothing to do with this tragedy.

Republicans "drugs need to be illegal"
Gangs in Mexico grow into billion dollar armies
Republicans "Mexico just needs to wage war on the cartels"
Mexico wages war on drug cartels, fails miserably and violence increases exponentially

Is that why you think I want a wall. To prevent tragedies in Mexico?

No. You're missing the point. A Wall won't magically prevent a situation like this from happening in the US. And it won't keep people like that out either.
You pretending like this tragic event somehow supports an argument for the wall is dumb.

Washington Gov. Jay Inslee (D) slammed the Customs and Border Protection agency on Monday for allegedly detaining and questioning Iranian-Americans at the Canada-U.S. border in Blaine, Washington, which he attributed to the Trump administration’s “never-ending vilification” of immigrants.
“What Americans endured over the weekend in Blaine is unacceptable,” Inslee said in a statement. “This will not stand in Washington state, and we will continue to push for answers to ensure that it does not happen again.”
The governor asserted that the Trump administration, which has denied the allegations, could not be trusted to be forthright about the issue.
“Customs and Border Protection denials of these reports are simply not credible,” he said. “There are multiple firsthand accounts of CBP agents seizing people’s passports while they waited for up to 12 hours for re-entry into the United States.”
On Sunday, CBP spokesperson Michael Friel had said that the allegations were “false,” as was the Council on American-Islamic Relations’ report that the Department of Homeland Security had ordered CBP to detain those of Iranian descent, including U.S. citizens.
Immigration officials allegedly began the detentions after President Donald Trump dramatically escalated tensions with Tehran by having top Iranian general Qasem Soleimani assassinated via drone strike on Friday.

One of the interesting things I rarely hear about is, what standard do we use for asylum? Over the summer, I went and watched a random slate 11th Circuit cases on appeal; one of them was an asylum case.
The undisputed facts, found by the immigration judge his/herself were that the guy was deliberately targeted by Al-Shabaab for being, you know, anti-Al-Shabaab. He was threatened, tortured his genitals, and then even blew up his house with a rocket or something. His daughter and sister were killed; his father was seriously wounded. Like, it wasn't a question of whether all that happened or whether the guy was lying. It was a question if that was an appropriate situation for asylum purposes.
And the immigration judge had denied the petition. Which, I mean, that seems crazy, right? If not a guy whose home was blown up by literal world-famous Islamic terrorists, then who are we giving asylum?
