WASHINGTON, D.C. Honduran President Juan Orlando Hernández, on a visit to the U.S. Chamber of Commerce on Friday, said the U.S. has to strengthen efforts to control the humanitarian crisis that both nations face with unaccompanied migrant children crossing the U.S. Southwest border.
At the end of his speech to the chamber, where the Honduran head of state discussed his nations short- and long-term investment projects with U.S. businesses, Hernández seemed to blame the U.S. for the crisis saying a lack of immigration reform and weak drug laws has contributed to the problem.
It is unfair, he said, for his nation to tackle the surge of migrant unaccompanied children alone.
We are very worried about the children, but sadly this is a security problem provoked by drug trafficking from the drugs that are consumed by the US, and this has had an impact in the displacement situation (of Hondurans,) Hernández, who took office in January, told Fox News Latino. The U.S. has to be more proactive (with the immigration reform) because these separations are inhumane.
To tackle the humanitarian crisis of the migrant unaccompanied children, Hernández said his government has asked Mexican officials to immediately set up four new Honduran consulates in the Mexican-Honduran border known as Ruta del inmigrante to provide humanitarian aid and custom and immigration support as the flow of people mostly children alone or with their parents reach the area.

Yeah, that’s what we say, too.
Does he mean the ones not enforced.
That’s what happens when you refuse to enforce your own immigration laws, and buy air time in Central America inviting people to come on up.
I am tired of picking up the bill for the rest of the world.
They’re only interested in us for welfare. We’re broke. We don’t have anymore to give. We don’t even have enough for the ones here now.
We don’t have weak laws, we have a president who has ordered the Border Patrol and ICE to not enforce them.
IOW, “We need fast track access to the US border. Time’s a wastin’, Mexico. Andele!”

HEY FELLA WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT???
Well, I screwed that up...
<>We are very worried about the children”<>
But not worried enough to feed our children to the Beast:

Our existing US Federal Border Laws are strong.
Our US Federal Politicians are to weak to enforce our existing Border Laws.
The word “Fix” to a Federal Politician in “both” parties means DO NOT ENFORCE to We, The People.
Until all the EXISTING US Federal Border Laws are strictly enforced, there is no need to pass new ones.
And this is why the difference between the opinion of an outsider and a bucket of shit is the bucket. Our laws are fine. It’s the criminals in government who deliberately fail to enforce those laws who are the problem.
In fact, this guy is probably a co-conspirator just covering his tracks.
The American people had better prepare to take matters into their own hands because the criminals who run their country are overwhelming them with migrants.

If that is indeed a fact, how and why did all of these babies, toddlers, pre-schoolers and grade school children (they are ALL babies and pre-schoolers in the photos I keep seeing in the news) how did Mexico allow them to jump their borders and not wind up in the hoosegow?
I seem to smell a rat, or in this case a cucaracha, as Mexico is assisting this abomination!
Still, Hernandez has a point. Our immigration laws are weaker than his immigration laws.
And one feature of our existing immigration law, in particular, could stand strengthening. Illegal entry is currently identified as a misdemeanor infraction. It should be a felony.
No need to pass new ones no matter what - Moratorium on all immigration legal and illegal.
