I often read themonitor.com while at work. This article regarding the compromise reached between the Dept. of Homeland Security and the University of Texas at Brownsville caught my attention and even made me chuckle a bit. A quick recap: a portion of the UTB campus was unfortunately located on the south side of projected path for the "Border Wall." Some solutions included having students bring their passports to school so that they could attend their classes in the no mans land between the river and the wall... pretty ridiculous, I know. Anyway, a "friendlier" version of the fence has been constructed in this area, but you gotta appreciate this nugget from a Mexican worker who is just happy to be working.
"One of the laborers, a man from Veracruz, Mexico holding a temporary work visa, agreed.
"They're going to jump over it," he said in Spanish. "I'm glad I'm not paying for it." He smiled and returned to painting one of the fence's columns."
The man has a point, but he's a total cagapalo. Your thoughts?
