Why would people call a wall, a fence?

Those same people, who call walls fences, would call George W bush an excellent president.

From the moment of infancy on, most humans tend to first build and then support and reinforce the boundary that separates them form everything else.  Each of us is encapsulated in our own self-made shell.  At some point in life we tend to realize our isolation and some become overwhelmed with the “Wall” that was built.  Others learn to poke a hole in their “Wall” so as to allow some slight communication with another.\n\nFor minds to meet they must have a common interest.  For humans, one of the strongest common interests is mating.  Either the individuals can learn to pull down their walls and meet, openly and honestly (in body, mind and soul) or they can leave the wall alone and play games.\nSocially, the typical human chooses to live their life with wall up, emotions hidden and tape recorders on with the volume at almost full blast.  It does not have to be that way, but never the less, it is still the most popular choice.

The Secure Fence Act was HR 6061, not HB4377. You either read the wrong bill, or didn't read it thoroughly. Your information is incorrect. I've included a link to the actual text below.\n\nupdate: I see you have posted a link. That's to the failed bill in the House, which was an attempt to amend immigration law. It is not the bill that the President signed to allow building of the wall.

Religion is not the name of closed wall it is more to do with "openness" but people due to lack of knowledge and interaction (due to Urbanisation) had closed themselves to new ideas...new thoughts ....even their own religion...but some how computer has become a fashion...later necessity....and thru this the "Sharing" has brought in a more meaning for "Religion".(Especially for the Urbans) \n\nWithout comp howelse can I expect to a question from U

Think of yourself as having a farm, or an orchard, and then putting a fence around it, to claim your territory. Well on a larger scale, a nation just has a bigger fence...\n\nIt will last as long as there is fencing material, and as long as people want to claim territories...

I think a wall should be built only if/when we decide to enforce our own immigration laws otherwise it will not do any good.  It has to be in phases, you build a wall, and then what, amnesty, guest worker programs, what would be next?  Something realistic I hope because some of the solutions Ive seen on here are a little extreme and not going to happen ever, the people who suggest them while claiming to be so smart, really aren't if they think that will be allowed or even lawful.

I think he means that this wall isn't a wall that protect the building, because this wall is buried in ground. But I'm not sure because this word is unknown for me ."Pseudo" means false but  "ashar" . Are you sure for the word? \n\nIs it "ashore" ? that means:\ntoward or onto land from an area of water, or on land after coming from an area of water .\n"ashore" matches better because this wall is onto land.\nHope help

Must of us know that. It is a defense that some used. Some feel it is against the people or you would ignore the law. Ever see those questions where it said-we all break them? What kind of morals to they have? Do they truly believe that? \n You are right for many it is about country.

I guess it would!  but no one is going to build a wall.  it's too politically incorrect.

Illegal immigrants will not stop by building a few fences.  The government needs a quick solution to stop the illegal entrance, but they cannot figure out any better idea.  If I am that immigrant, the fence won't be able to stop me, not even the great wall of China.

It is all said. No wall will stop illegal migration. But illegals don't just come from the south. They come from many other parts of the world. USA has received people from everywhere, the original settlers were inmigrants from England, and if you take a close look at your family tree, I'm sure you'll find an inmigrant among your close relatives. So why all this fuzz about. Everytime politicians want to distract the people's attention from critizicing their goofs, they take on illegal migration as a sure way of deviating the citizens opinion. So, what else is new?

Good fences make good neighbors.\n\nIf they would leave me alone, don't fly aircraft into buildings.  I would be more than happy to leave them alone.\n\nRemember, B-52s when kindness fails.

The bond is the way in which bricks are arranged in a wall, it is necessary to prevent the vertical joints in two consecutive courses being positioned directly above one another, as this weakens the construction.\n\nFrog - the indentation in the face of a brick, which makes it both easy to handle and bed into mortar. or a depression in the bed surface of a brick. Sometimes called a panel. \n\nTraditional bricks often had one of the bedding faces hollowed out to form a 'frog'.  This saved clay and helped key the bricks to mortar, although this was often minimal as they were usually laid frog down. Modern specifications are often for 'frog up' to give the wall greater strength and maintain the wall's density.

People here don't get we have over 2,000 miles of boarder on land and about twice that on sea!! No one can build a fence that big! Are we going to depth charge the coasts?\n\nWe have a hard enough time defending bi-lateral fences that are 155 miles long in Korea!\n\nMaybe the repubs would like it as it wastes a whole lot of money!

It's the standard distance between vertical wall studs in the U.S.  it makes it easier for carpenters to mark the headers and footers when framing a wall.

The Berlin Wall kept people IN not OUT. The wall we would like erected at our border is to keep OUT illegal immigrants and anyone else who wants to enter our country without detection which includes terrorists, criminals and drug dealers. The people who want to enter legally would have to be screened. That would also cut down on the chances of speading dangerous diseases into the USA. It is a good way to HELP deter illegal immigration. Border security would take care of those who manage to get in illegally. The Border security should have the right to shoot on sight anyone who crosses at any point other than those designated.
