Do you mean language as a figurative "wall"?<BR/><BR/>wunelle - It's certainly a complicated issue and no side seems to have a firm grasp on it. I saw an interesting story in our local paper the other day that told of an illegal immigrant who saved a white boy who was injured and wandering in the desert in southern Arizona after his mom had died in an accident - <A HREF="http://www.azcentral.com/news/articles/1128immigrantrescue.html" REL="nofollow">AZ Republic</A>. It reminded me of the movie 'Babel' and ties in with Shrimplate's comment about language. Some things are universal and independent of language - caring for your children, wanting to have a better life. But because of differences in language and culture, some people don't realize what we have in common.dbackdadhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10700991588554336491noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10882105.post-4861646606995691042007-12-11T14:21:00.000-08:002007-12-11T14:21:00.000-08:00Whatever our issues with immigration, only an idio...Whatever our issues with immigration, only an idiot thinks a 700 mile fence is the solution.
