"Former Soviet President Mikhail Gorbachev compared the United States' proposed 700-mile wall on the U.S.-Mexico border to the Berlin Wall during a Tuesday visit to Midland.
Addressing a Tuesday news conference at UTPB's Center for Energy and Economic Diversification, the JBS Public Leadership Institute Distinguished Lecture Series speaker was by turns serious and flippant prior to a reception with more than 100 people.
"You remember President Reagan standing in Berlin and saying, 'This wall should be torn down,'" said the 1990 Nobel Peace Prize winner. "Now the United States seems to be building almost the Wall of China between itself and this other nation with which it has been associated for many decades and has had cooperation and interaction with.
"I think what is really needed are ideas and proposals about how to improve that cooperation and work out all of those issues regarding immigration flows. I don't think the U.S. is so weak and so much lacks confidence as not to be able to find a different solution."
If Gorby could have built him a wall around the Afghans he'd have done so in a NY minute. Reagan wanted all of ONE country to be united again, and the wall we WILL erect to prevent a continued invasion of the beaners is a far different matter. A wall remains the most humane way of keeping illegals out, because a line of armed men with orders to shoot-to-kill is somewhat harsh, so shut up, Gorby, okay. Let someone, ANYONE try and move into Russia or it's former territories without the proper documentation and see what happens.
Does the term "Firing Squad" ring a bell...
