Pearls Before Swine by Stephan Pastis for February 05, 2017
Transcript:
Goat: Where's Rat today? Pig: Telling neighbor Bob that we're building a wall between our houses. Goat: Rat doesn't like him? Pig: Nope...and he doesn't like Don. The neighbor on the other side. Goat: So he's building a wall there too? Pig: Yep. And some with the guy behind us. He hates him. Goat: That just leaves the neighbor in front of you. Pig: Who Rat doesn't like either. Goat: So what does that mean? Rat: That I think I just built a prison. Goat: Our dreams have come true. Rat: Bake me a cake with a saw in it!

Is Rat now going to send the bill for all those bricks and mortar to neighbour Bob, Don, the guy behind and the neighbour in front?

The Great Wall of China, the Maginot Line, and the Siegfried Line all proved that a static defense doesn’t work. Trump’s border wall probably won’t work either, but if you live in a state with a Mexican border you’d probably be willing to give it a shot.

Like Mr. Rat I hate my neighbors. They can’t talk without screaming every word.

If walls are so ineffective, then why is Obama building one around his mansion?

Who’s paying for Rat’s wall, if not Rat himself?
starcandles Premium Member about 8 years ago
Mexico, months ago, asked for our help to build a wall on their southern border. We need a wall. The cartels are out of hand. Good fences & walls make good neighbors. We respect Mexico’s sovereignty & we do not have people sneaking over the border to get into Mexico. Why does anybody think that it is OK for people to sneak into the US? Hmmm?

Neighbor Barack built a wall around his house!

Stone walls do not a prison make, nor iron bars a cage, but they sure help. If Rat were an introvert, this walled compound would be ideal! As it is, I worry about the easy access from above!

No barred window, no saw required.

No comment about the obvious mistake? What good would a saw do on a brick wall? Rat needs a cake with a chisel in it. Or better yet, a hammer and a chisel.
