STUPID IS AS STUPID DOES

There is a big difference between being ignorant and being stupid. An ignorant person simply lacks knowledge, information, or training. A stupid person lacks good decision-making skills and basic common sense. For example, I am totally ignorant of welding protocol, but I’m not stupid. I have the common sense to know that welding can be a dangerous activity. By the same reasoning, I don’t need a doctorate in public policy to recognize that the current level of illegal immigration on the U.S.-Mexico border is not just unsustainable, but downright dangerous for all concerned. I can see from video clips, both authorized and unauthorized, that the processing and containment facilities at the border are totally inadequate, inhumane, and dangerous even though the Biden administration is doing its best to keep the media and others from reporting the true facts.
