Walls Define What They Surround

Walls designed to keep people in an area define prisons. Some examples of this type of wall are:

  • North Korea
  • The Berlin Wall
  • The Iron Curtain
  • Cuba
  • Federal Prisons
  • County jails
  • The former USSR

Walls designed to keep people out are protecting something of value. Some examples of this type of wall are:

  • John Kerry’s mansion
  • The Kennedy compound
  • The Clinton mansion
  • Obama’s mansion (in other words, most rich people have walls to keep lesser people out)
  • The White House
  • The border across the southern United States, which protects Americans.

There are thousands of walls in the world intended to keep people either in or out, but only when Donald Trump proposes a wall to protect America from a civilian invasion from the south are we told that walls are bad things. If walls are so bad, why do Kerry, the Clintons, the Kennedys and the Obamas have them around their homes? And why is America not as important as these elitists’ homes?
