Twenty years after the fall of the Berlin wall, a new wall—one that will divide a continent—is under construction on the US border with Mexico. And a government that once called for an end to such division is today its gatekeeper.

I have received several of these comments while this video has been up, and initially I removed them out of shame that the world, and particularly some of my good friends in Mexico would see the menaliity of some of my fellow US citizens. But I have decided to leave them in order to show that one element in support of this wall is steeped in exactly the kind of hatefulness and fear that any wall between peoples symbolizes.

Thank you Pope John Paul the Great, Ronald Reagan, Lech Walesa , and all the martyrs of this cause who gave so much to change the hearts of Godless men, indifferent hearts, and nations of hate. I only pray that my nations liberal and spiritually void brothers will appreciate the fruits of Americans and citizens around the world who had a disregard for subjective feelings and emotions, and gave to a greater objective cause.

The biggest difference about a wall erected between the US+Mexico would be that these are TWO different COUNTRIES
Germany was ONE country divided in TWO; families were divided, people who longed to be together couldn’t be. One part was denied the very Freedom everybody in the US takes for granted but really knows so very little about since they have never been denied this precious commodity.
This last paragraph of yours shows a paranoia derived of a lack of education on your part

I oppose the wall …
I oppose the wall between the US and Mexico, but I have to point out that there is a huge difference between the Berlin wall, and the US/Mexico wall:
The Berlin wall was intended to keep people IN.
The US/Mexico wall is intended to keep people OUT.
But I fear that as the US federal govt gets more and more powerful, and as the D’s and R’s move us closer and closer to pure socialism, the wall on the US Southern border will indeed be used to keep US citizens who want to flee in their new prison.

Baha’u'llah said …
Baha’u'llah said that “the Earth is but one country, and Mankind its citizens,” and Abdul-Baha said something similar to this, that all the nations are one, that they must be united, so that the whole world may appear as one human family. Shogi Effendi later said, through his life, that once we implement this, then all these troubles with which we are so hopelessly faced with today would be easily remedied.

my fellow mexican …
my fellow mexican people get educate there are jobs that will provide enough for your needs. but education is the key. we can not complain but we can react to better our country. look all around you we are living better thinfs are changing slowly but surely. we just passed an imigration reform for central americans cubans europeans and asian illegaly here in mexico. lets lead by example.

its very simple nolan. Education is the key to success. I got educate yes i do not make what i really would probably make in the states but it provides for all my needs. i just hate the steriotypes your country has of mexico. we are as mucha melting pot as you guys. asians blacks europeans ext reside here with harmony and no racial barriers. i also dont like that if i wanted to take my kids to disneyland for example i will be denied not fair, and yet you guys can come and go as you please.

Cerve414, as a citizen of the United States, I strongly admire you for being a Mexican who wants to improve Mexico rather than simply come to the US. I hope that one day Mexico does become a more strong and structurally integrated nation so that the US and Mexico can stand proudly besides each others as allies.

If you think that …
If you think that somebody who disagrees with you must feel “threatened”, and therefore disregard their point as inferior to your own, then you are just as ignorant as those with whom you so disagree. By assuming that anybody who supports the wall is some stupid racist hick, you reject that there may be any intelligent points that oppose your own. And by rejecting those points, you fail to allow the full realization of a true solution.

What you fail to …
What you fail to understand is that by creating a physical barrier, we are not prohibiting entrance to the country. They can still get in legally, just as they always have had the ability to do. All the wall is meant to do is stop illegal entry. Stopping illegal entry is not closing your nation. It’s just making sure that people enter it correctly, respectfully, and in a manner that ensures their future success as Americans.

What one must …
What one must understand is that to disapprove of free border crossing ability is not to disapprove of immigration. Getting from East Germany to West Germany legally? Impossible. Getting from Mexico to the United States legally? A plane, train, or boat ticket and some paperwork. Legally. And by crossing legally, immigrants to the US from Mexico show what those who come to hate illegal crossings are disgusted at the lack of: respect for the country that they are entering. STOP ILLEGAL ENTERING.

Brilliant video. …
Brilliant video. We as a nation cannot simultaneously purport that we stand for freedom and unity among humankind, and meanwhile bisect an entire continent with a physical obstruction akin only, in world history, to the Great Wall of China. Are we that isolationist? scared? Apparently we choose fear as a response to the world. The fear mongering may help politicians get re-elected and Americans in the interior feel a false sense of security. Because here at the border, no one is fooled.

Good job covering this. 5 stars all the way. Don’t be offended by the hateful comments you receive. It only means your video has threatened them. Keep up the good work.

why did they spend all that money building a wall??? ridiculous, that money could have been put to better use, that wall is a joke, people are still going to jump over it, or dig tunnels under it.. .come on people … lets be realistic.
