You can see the border between Haiti and the Dom Rep from space. The Haiti side is brown and dead, the DR side is lush and green. They have a border fence. They shoot anybody who tries to climb it.

Other places you can see a clear border:
1) North Korea and…well…everyone.
2) Australia, Japan and England. The ocean is basically a big ass moat.
3) Shit…even historical borders are visible from space. Alex, I’ll take the ‘Great Wall of China’ for 1000…
4) The West Bank. Try and cross that ‘imaginary’ border at your leisure. Double dare you.

Actually, you can’t see the Great Wall of China from space. That’s a myth
The Wall slows them down quite a lot so the border guards can arrive on the scene and then aim their weapons.

Pretty sure you are wrong about that.
Pretty sure Obese men or Pregnant Women with anchor babies are incapable of parkour over a hardened secured wall.

Why not a fence with gaps to shoot through?

Actually, I’m Dominican and no, we don’t have a fence. Except for some border cities like Dajabón or Jimaní, most of the border is just small rivers, a tiny trench, an international road, some pyramids scattered as signal, or plainly nothing.
There are some minor chauvinist groups who like the idea of a border wall, but it’s a ridiculously stupid idea considering Hitians could just simply go in boat through the sea (like some of them already actually do), climb it, dig under it, make a hole on them, or the most common way to get into: bribe the guards (sometimes assisted by local authorities or businessmen).
Also, it doesn’t solve the true cause of mass migration: inequality between both countries.

Xipe Totec still demands blood sacrifice. Doesn’t matter how many layers of Catholicism you paint over her.

Should have made him jewish, since they’re the ones always preaching it.
i have no clue why america doesn’t just let mexicans cross the border freely. but i’d like it if both of them stayed out of canada

Not imaginary, arbitrary. And they really are just arbitrary lines – but mostly heavyly guarded ones.

Yeah, because the drug war is fantastic, and the biggest government *isnt* telling people what they can and cannot inhale, eat, drink, or inject. Rationalizations are almost as effective on you dumbasses as Valium.

There’s dozens of stories of white liberals going to hellhole countries to prove something, only to turn up raped or dead.

Nothing like this will happen to you in Mexico unless you get involved in the cartels. Cartel kills cartel.

Ah yes, my beatiful country, full of savages who kill just for mere pleasure.
