As the U.S. government built its latest stretch of border wall, Mexico made a statement of its own by laying remains of the Berlin Wall a few steps away.
The 3-ton pockmarked, gray concrete slab sits between a bullring, a lighthouse and the border wall, which extends into the Pacific Ocean.
“May this be a lesson to build a society that knocks down walls and builds bridges,” reads the inscription below the towering Cold War relic, attributed to Tijuana Mayor Montserrat Caballero and titled, “A World Without Walls.”
They were two different countries at the time. That’s like calling the Koreas a divided country.
Not true. Germany was divided into two countries by the allied forces and Russia after WWII…
That’s what I was saying.

Feel free to educate me then. How were they not two different countries at the time? The U.N. recognized them as such.
That you think Mexiko and USA are the same people you divide by a border. Its not like that.
I said the Koreas, not the US and Mexico. Did you not read what I wrote?
Again, please explain how West Germany and East Germany were not two separate countries when even the U.N. recognized their independent sovereignty.
Because you are literally shifting the goalposts around. They are both borders that divide a people.
And nobody gives a fuck About UN, they are a joke.
So North Korea is not a country either? That is your contention? I’m stupid, remember, so I am trying to get this clear.

Insulting me is not an answer. Is North Korea a sovereign nation or not? It’s a pretty simple question.
