Border Wall Contractors ask for Guns

[bigheadfred]

If someone threatens me of my family, i won't be in a happy mood when I shoot them.

Right. The party doesn't start until the party ends.

I'll drink to that.

@sneakypete

So you know what their motivations are eh.  Do you know them personally?   have you done background checks on them?

@driftdiver

Yes,I have. Each and everyone of them.

WTF is the matter with you people? Children are children everywhere. They are not criminal masterminds or psychotic killers.

They are here illegally.  That hurts us.
They use public services.  That hurts us.
They risk the lives of their children to make the trip.  That hurts them.

I agree with all three points,but can only point out the risk seems worthwhile to them,or they wouldn't take it. The FACT that WE make it so rewarding for them to come here,squat down and dump another one in the dirt so the whole family becomes that newborn's dependent is OUR fault,NOT theirs.

The FACTS are that if we didn't make the rewards so great for them,they would stop coming.

Either you are for a nation of laws or you're not.   We now know where you stand.

You don't even suspect anything other than what the voices in your head tell yoU,so STFU.

@Bigun

I suspect it becomes legal when they sign the contract to agree to work for the feral government,under the conditions the feral government states are requirements for being awarded the contract. Woe be onto any private company that doesn't hire the "correct" percentage of minority workers and supervisors,for example.

[sneakypete]

Wonder if the contract says anything about hiring mercs?

@Hondo69

I think mercs are still ok,but nobody ever wanted Edsels.

[sneakypete]

Perhaps Black Water should offer to provide security for the construction crews.

@txradioguy

The firm Blackwater no longer exists. They got too much negative publicity and public attention,so they disappeared and then reappeared under a new name. I have forgotten what the new name is.

@sneakypete,

I'm guessing you haven't spent a whole lot of time on the border.

You are right,but I have spent a bunch of time around minor children,and have never met one yet that was a hardened criminal and murderer.

[sneakypete]

Gang members of MS 13 are people too.   

@Hondo69
They are also popup targets .

[Sanguine]

You are right,but I have spent a bunch of time around minor children,and have never met one yet that was a hardened criminal and murderer.

Luckily, the percentage of children coming across the border is very, very small. 

[sneakypete]

Luckily, the percentage of children coming across the border is very, very small.

@Sanguine

You could very well be right about that,but I have been led to believe that most of the young adult women coming across the border bring a small child or to with them.

Not that the numbers matter in reference to this discussion because we have been talking about "minor children" not the numbers of minor children.

We do ourselves no favors when we lump 5 years olds crossing the border with their mothers into the same category as late teen MS-13 members.

The 5 year old that comes across with his mother is an innocent deserving of compassion and sympathy,and the MS-13 gang member is only deserving of a bullet.

@sneakypete

Too much of a blanket statement. I can agree on the mastermind part but there is evil in the world. Some children are raised in a pretty crappy environment. Kids can pull a lot of crap to make mommy and daddy happy.

The term "anger" has a specific connotation. You're evening a score when you're shooting someone in anger. If you are pulling a gun to save your life the last thing you feel is anger. You're scared shitless. I know because I have been there a couple times.

The writer either is a moron and couldn't think of the word protection or the request from the contractor was poorly written.

If you think carrying a firearm to construction work site is not any every day event by thousands of workers, you haven't spent enough time in Texas.

@thackney

The difference is they aren't carrying them on a FEDERAL work site,where Texas law doesn't apply,and they would be committing federal felonies.
