I want to make a blog critique a post title is "Kira Davis: Hell Yes, We Need That Border Wall" by Kira Davis from the RedState. I want to talk about this article because I have the agreement and also disagreement with Kira Davis's opinion. I agree about what people in America worried the most now a day is an illegal immigrant, drugs. So I think that he needed to address more about the facts about how illegal immigrants affect us, the U.S citizens.
In his first paragraph, he talks about the massive gunfight happen in the Pacific coastal state of Sinaloa and provided some video footage for the battle. I like that he used some source to support the statement, but I think that the statement is not very accurate and related to the border wall. since the battle happened in Mexico, and it didn't affect any part of the U.S, it also happens to be far from the border, so I think if he wants to be more clear with the statement, he needs to address more about the events happen that affect both America and Mexico, happen right on the border.
In his second paragraph, he starts the paragraph with "Mexicans are not “straight, white males” and for that reason and none other we are having this insane argument about whether or not America has the right to protect her borders. In reality, race/ethnicity is completely irrelevant to this conversation." To me, these two sentences are not very needed in the articles, because they cause be bewilderment. Used the words "straight, and white males" then states that Race is not irrelevant to the conversation, sound very weird, so I hope he put this sentence out of the paragraph so it does not lead to the misunderstanding. 
Back to the border wall topic, I agree with him about the border wall can be a good solution for America to feel safe from immigrants, and the bad thing comes from the South, but the wall to didn't finish Trump promised since 2016 and we have spent a large amount of money in it. The total amount has been estimated by the official and unofficial bodies ranging from $12bn to $70bn, and all that money will come from us.
