    Explain how the fuck a border keeps me safe.

    It doesn’t. It keeps me safe from people from your country. US has a long history of destroying other countries for it’s political and economical gains. We have borders to protect us from countries like US and Russia. It doesn’t always work but we sure as hell need them.

      keeps me safe

      Okay. But that doesn’t seem like it’s in the interest of people trapped here.

      US has a long history of doing the thing i just said it protects me from

      So… When were borders invented? I assume that just stopped when they were invented, right?

      and Russia

      Doing a great job at that.

        If you want to remove borders from you country I have nothing against it. In EU we already have free movement across most of the block. When it comes to external borders I definitely would like to keep them and I’m not really interested how people from hostile countries feel about it.

            So who and how many from those hostile countries to we have to kill to stop them from being hostile? Do we do it blitzkrieg style or Gaza style until all the hostiles are gone? Do you have the reeducation camps ready to ensure whatever resulted in the countries becoming hostile in the first place can’t happen again?

            I don’t know about you, but this is starting to sound like a lot more work (and maybe a lot more death) than just dealing with borders.
