A small faction of the larger group of 6,219 Central American migrants in Tijuana slowly and peacefully pushed within 500 feet of the U.S. border Thursday while armed Mexican federal police held a barrier near the pedestrian crossing.
Asking for more humane conditions in the overflowing Benito Juarez shelter and trying to present themselves to United States immigration authorities for asylum, the group carried white flags as they marched from the migrant camp to the foot of the U.S. pedestrian bridge, a distance of about five city blocks.
The migrants have been camped out in muddy and cramped conditions at an open-air sports arena turned into a makeshift shelter. They said they awoke Thanksgiving Day hungry, as rain worsened the already unsanitary conditions in the packed shelter.
“There are sick children here, and we are cold and hungry,” said Carlos Lopez, a Honduran who was leading the group. Lopez added it was inappropriate to shelter the women and children outside. “The whole world is watching what is happening here.”
Tijuana municipal authorities have said they are unequipped to handle the growing numbers in the caravan.

You are a monster!
“Lopez added it was inappropriate to shelter the women and children outside.”
Every time one of these libs makes such a statement, the obvious retort should be “and just how many of these people are staying at your house?”
Before we have to steal it.
This is the type of bull shite that people with weak minds will just eat up and declare it yummy.
Cry me a river.
We broke a record of below zero last night. Like about -10.
Yeah. You know that and I know that.
They have a lot to learn.
LOL! You win the internet with that post.
Win the Internet!

When I’m looking for an example of simple human decency, I’ll remember your comment.
The article shows a picture of a very healthy looking little boy sitting right by a wall of vertical bars. The article says that the Mexican police allowed a few children to get closer to the border. It is so disgusting. These staged photo ops are necessary for the dishonest media to use for their propaganda.
Really? I’m hoping that was sarcasm.
A few weeks ago someone there also said there were NINE MILLION poverty stricken Mexican citizen tax payers who needed help from their government and funds which should have been used to feed and shelter them was going instead to illegal aliens from other countries...
Gee that happens in our country too...
BUMP! I think that’s one reason President Trump is working hard to secure the border.
