Don't Know Much About History -- Pundit Compares Border Wall to Berlin Wall

I almost burst out laughing when I saw this headline at USA Today: "As American troops install razor wire in Arizona, images of the Berlin Wall resurface." The author of the piece is Frances Lynch who is an immigration attorney, and, undoubtedly, has a financial interest in continued illegal immigration. Here is the laughable part: "As I watch the military personnel installing mile after mile of razor wire, I’m reminded of another wall, one that caused my own family grief and pain: the Berlin Wall." He overlooks one important fact: the Berlin Wall was constructed to keep East Germans from leaving that communist utopia, not keep West Germans from illegally immigrating to East Germany!
