Why do Mexicans care if the US builds a wall on its side of the border?
The outrage doesn't make sense. For instance, if Mexico built a wall no one in the US would care. If Canada built a wall, Americans couldn't care less. And if American built a wall on the Canadian border, Canadians would just find it amusing. But a mention if a mexican border wall somehow causes marches, hysteria, anger, etc. I don't understand the mass protest.

From Mexico? Mostly because of Trump's high handedness is trying to say Mexico would Pay for the wall.

You can't be a nation of immigrants. Claim yourself the protector of freedom and equality, but build a wall to keep the undesirables out.
You will eventually stop being that welcoming nation. And that's fine. But don't preach you're about freedom, equality, 2nd chance, and democracy.
It reveals your hypocrisy.

Try building a wall on the Canadian border.
I doubt that no one would care.

Can you imagine what would happen if they put a cod piece with a lock on every mans penis that comes from America to Mexico to prevent rape and then sent the bill to Washington?
If the US wants the boondoggle of the wall that is one thing, but to sent the bill to Mexico that is a F/U.

It directly impacts trade, has serious environmental issues in some places, will actually involve federal takeover of private land in many locations and hey, guess what, it won't fûcking work. Plus, it'll cost billions of dollars that Mexico will not pay for, because you're the dumbasses, not them.

If Mexicans were going to build a wall and demand US taxpayers pay for it while calling Americans criminals, rapists, and drug abusers there would probably be some hard feelings.
Mexico does not have a wall on their southern border, that is an internet hoax that too many concerned grandmothers forwarded as a chain email.
