    It's not like we're running out of room here.

    But let's start with this site, let's send Flashlight to the Sun. It's lovely this time of year.

    Can we make a ship that could carry a few people? I think SHREKL would enjoy the sun too. Maybe soma and TLS too?

    true, why burden another already poor country? Trump is right, we do need to build a wall - around Death Valley or other such hellish places! Angle that razor wire inwards and throw in all the deadbeat dads, kiddie diddlers, rapists, scamming old people con men, serial killers, etc.etc. Let them fend for themselves.

    Why would our governments build such a place only to throw themselves in?

    The Sun wouldn’t need borders or walls, once you get there you’ll never leave. I hear it’s just that nice. Maybe you should go and catch some rays.

    FYI, a reporter friend of mine who works in the Rio Grande Valley is reporting that the concertina wire there is being removed today.

    won't know until he let's them come home - last report Mattis had signed an extension through the end of January. In the tens of millions already though.

    Again, I support a virtual wall, it just makes more sense. The whole caravan thing was clearly to score political points before the midterms.

    What would a virtual wall do? Protect the Grid from Clu? That’s why we have Tron, he fights for the Users!

    I could really get behind this idea, but I'm afraid he won't go. He likes that Oval Office too much...
