YouTube Description
as posted by the channelA Texas town is opposing Trump’s proposed border wall. Ana Kasparian, Ben Mankiewicz, Mark Thompson, and SueAnn Robinson, the hosts of The Young Turks, tell you why they’re against the wall. Tell us what you think in the comment section below.
“Donald Trump has called Laredo dangerous, but residents here are more worried about his proposed policies than crime.
Twice a day, Myra Cazares walks over the Gateway to the Americas International Bridge that links the border city of Laredo, Texas, with Mexico. Cazares, 22, belongs equally to both countries. She was born in San Antonio and works and studies in Laredo, but lives across the Rio Grande in Nuevo Laredo with her parents.
"The guards get to know you because you cross every day," said Cazares.
Although there is a hard line on maps where the United States ends and Mexico begins, the reality in Laredo is blurred. More than 6,000 people walk into Mexico across Laredo's pedestrian bridge each day, according to the City of Laredo, which only tracks southbound traffic. About 14,000 vehicles daily also make the crossing, including more than 4,000 semitrailers that ferry goods into Mexico.”
