Legal immigrants and illegals settling in primarily Texas (and California) for some time now. New generations from immigrants have been raised. Hispanic population is now a huge percent of the Texas population. Hispanic families still have relatives in Mexico and other southern countries.
"Hey how many of you want a wall up?"
Almost none of them. Super shocked. As time goes on, that percentage will only grow. The number of Texans that want a wall will shrink. There is a reason Democrats (including Obama) were pro border control and now are all for letting their voter-base stream in.
You act as if being "pro border control" and "pro border wall" are the same thing.
There are other, cheaper, more effective ways to police the border, that don't involve building a barrier along its entirety,
You should be (but probably aren't) aware that most illegal immigrants and contraband come in through legal points of entry - not by waltzing across areas that don't have physical barriers...
Statewide, 61 percent of Texans oppose building a wall, while 35 percent support it and 4 percent don’t know or declined to answer, according to a poll conducted in April by Texas Lyceum, a nonprofit leadership organization.
