Oh. I see. A zillion dollar wall with doors makes all kinds of sense though.
How about, oh I don't know. How about NO wall? Huh? How this keeps anyone out? NO. It keeps us new Age Berlin Wall people INSIDE. That is what he wants. To keep us INSIDE and the world and everything that has to do with TRUTH? OUTSIDE.
It is a wall to keep FOX NEWS alive and kicking. Don't worry about the doors. No one wants to come in here any more. He saw to that.
I guess I've been looking at this from the wrong perspective Malizz. Someone who had a valid VISA that expired would be comparable to a Driver whose Driver's License has expired. They need a renewal to stay legal. Can temporary VISAS ever be made permanent? Why are some temporary and some not? Which brings me to another question. Thank you for your reply and Happy Tuesday! :)
No. Not at all. Just hold the family hostage and put anyone else in a cage until they prove useful. How about those fighting for the country who can get deported? I love that one.
In 2011, KC Chhan was walking along the riverfront in Phnom Penh with her family. She lives in Fresno, California, and fled Cambodia as a child refugee. The trip back was already an emotional one, but then KC was approached by a man asking for food.
“He said he was from Stockton,” a Northern California city just a few hours from Fresno. He told her he’d been deported, KC said. “And he got teary-eyed—he told us that for people who have been deported, it’s not easy here.”
Many Cambodian deportees grew up during the chaos and terror of the Khmer Rouge and were born in refugee camps, and so have neither set foot in Cambodia nor speak Khmer. Many struggle to find stable work and mental-health care. “Some have committed suicide,” KC said the man told her.
There are soon to be many more joining the man KC met. On April 5, 43 Cambodian Americans with a one-way ticket from the United States landed in Phnom Penh. The flight held the largest group of deportees the US had repatriated to the Southeast Asian country since the nations signed a memorandum of understanding in 2002.
After years of accepting only a handful of deportees a year, the Cambodian government signaled in late 2017 that it would begin accepting more. The Trump administration responded by rounding up people with deportation orders in the Cambodian community, which in the US is largely made up of refugees who immigrated in the 1970s and 1980s. As President Trump amps up the pressure to remove every deportable non-citizen from the US, even longtime residents and those who came to the States as child refugees have become targets.
“When he was telling me his story,” KC said of that river walk, “it reminded me of my brother. I was thinking—this would be the life for him if he were to be deported.”
When Sokha Chhan, KC’s older brother, was detained by Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) last October, he was not surprised. The US had been trying to deport Sokha since early 2008, after he was convicted of two misdemeanors for a domestic-violence incident in 2002. Sokha had heard that ICE had picked up others in the Cambodian community, and so when he received a phone call summoning him to his local ICE office, he figured his time in the US was up.
“I told my son where I parked my car before going in, just in case,” Sokha said. He didn’t consider fighting or fleeing. But one of the first things Sokha’s son did when he learned his father was taken into ICE custody was call KC.
The Chhans have always been a tight-knit family. Sokha and KC are the eldest of 10, and the only two of their siblings who were born in Cambodia before the Khmer Rouge came to power in 1975. The trauma of war forced a closeness that’s carried through to this day. “It’s something you can’t relay to other people who don’t know what it’s like to grow up under a repressive regime,” explained KC, a schoolteacher.
“The regime basically starved everyone in the country,” she added. “When we were kids, Sokha had gone out to find food for us and he was caught. One reason he wasn’t executed was because my mom and other elders begged for his life.”
The family escaped to California’s Central Valley in 1981 as refugees after spending two years in a Thai refugee camp. Sokha has been a legal permanent resident since. He’s worked as a donut baker for most of his adult life.

Here's the thing Sharon. Ya gotta LOOK AMURRICAN. You know white and pasty and out of shape. Ya gotta dress like dock workers and be angry all the time. If you don't fit that template you're gonna get booted. It's conviction by appearance. That's why cops shoot unarmed young black men. That's why ALL BLACK MEN even the very wealthy and very famous get stopped for driving fancy cars or for taking walks or for jogging in upscale neighborhoods which is where they live sometimes. If you're black it is called LOITERING. It's just the way folks who consider themselves to be the TRUE AMURRICANS look and they want everyone to look like them! They are either pretty little barbie dolls with as much brains as barbie has. You know the type. They are the ones on the talk shows who are the spokespersons for TGITWH talking gibberish but no one cares because they are so pretty to look at. OR they are the gals who could be truck drivers or wrestlers or alligator wranglers or rodeo cowgirls. All white and preferably blond though if they are vapid enough they will take brunettes too and I suppose even redheads. How ya look is A-Number one important. Thank you for your thoughtful and informative reply Sharon! :)

That can only be a door that swings m2c. Normal doors either open in or out. Well not entirely. There are doors that slide right or left and so you don't have to deal with a door at all. Once a door is opened you can go in or out. Thank you for your observation and Happy Tuesday! :)
Don'nt go to supermarkets much? They have doors marked ENTRANCE and EXIT. Do you not obey the signs and go in the exit and out the entrance? Well different strokes. Thank you for your reply. Ever get hit by a door swinging toward you because you went in the wrong way? Anyway I'm gonna ask a question about it. See if others are like you and ignore signs too.
FIX THIS NOW. May it NEVER occur again and put that pig behind bars where he and that whole cabinet belong.
UNHOLY MESS he has put us all in.
Kids are in cages and kids don't have parents. Can you imagine being 4 and having mom and dad taken away forever in a country where you don't speak a word of English? What is to stop some molester from taking this child and doing whatever? This is a breeding ground for all kinds of hideous child slave ideas.
I don't put people who could do this to kids above any level of disgusting behavior.
There should be a Trick Door and they tell Trump that if he goes threw it he can view the Trump memorial graffiti on the Mexican side, Once he goes threw they lock the door and tell Trump he can't come back in until he gives the password (the password would be Democracy because he would never guess that one). Cheers!
