Biden Does NOT need a BILL to close the border
He only needs a PEN. Thats all he needed to open it.
Thats all he needed to close it. Thats all Trump needed.
Maybe this is just Proof Trump is better than Biden.

Better question:  How was the Trayvon Martin case a racial issue when Zimmerman was a Hispanic mulatto and not white?

Ferguson Shooting, Riots And Race: Whites, Blacks React Differently To Mike Brown’s Death

A Black & White View Of Ferguson

In a national survey released Monday by the Pew Research Center, blacks are more than twice as likely as whites to believe that the fatal shooting of Mike Brown and the civil unrest that followed “raises important issues about race that need to be discussed.”

The survey shows reactions to the story are sharply divided along racial lines, with some 80 percent of blacks saying the shooting of an unarmed black teenager raises racial issues that merit discussion, while 47 percent of whites say race is getting more attention than it deserves.

White-black divisions are nothing new among reactions to news stories with racial undertones.

Blacks and whites disagreed starkly on the verdict and impact of the O.J. Simpson trial. The poll revealed that 62 percent of whites at the time believed that Simpson was guilty, compared to just 14 percent of blacks.

More recently, Pew Research showed a substantial racial divide over the George Zimmerman verdict, with 86 percent of blacks saying they were dissatisfied with the “not guilty” verdict in the 2012 shooting death of Trayvon Martin. By contrast, only 30 percent of whites said they were dissatisfied.
