Caravan asylum-seekers heading toward showdown at US border
Fox News.com ^ | April 29, 2018 | William La Jeunesse, Travis Fedschun

A caravan of hundreds of Central Americans that has traveled through Mexico over the past month will arrive on the southern U.S. border on Sunday, setting up a showdown at the nation's busiest border crossing as the group turns themselves over to border inspectors seeking asylum.

The group of roughly 200 people, including women and young children, is expected to turn themselves over to border inspectors at San Diego's San Ysidro border crossing around 4 p.m. ET after arriving in Tijuana last week, claiming they have a credible fear of persecution at home. Demonstrators gathered along the border to hold a rally in the hours before crossing over, with some people scaling the fence.

"The only thing I would tell Mr. Trump is to have a conscious and to look at all the people and the way they suffer. Because the people, they are coming from those countries, they are not doing it for pleasure," Osman Salvador Ulla Castro, who is from Honduras, told Fox News. "They face danger and extortions and they are looking for a better life."

The Border Patrol said Saturday that several groups of families from the caravan tried to enter the U.S. illegally by scaling parts of the "dilapidated scrap metal border fence" near San Ysidro.

There is a youTuber who says we should send them back, with their heads first and the rest later.

....”they are looking for a better life”...

Is not reason to gain Asylum, especially when you do nothing at all to change the country you came from!

I concur.

How can it be that Latinos have to leave Latino run places to come and and ease their suffering under the oppression of Gringo White Privilege?

The laws, that Obama, holder and Soros established before they left the White House prevents a lot of what we could otherwise do. Why do you think they’re at the California border? This has been planned for months We are simply watching the Dems ‘test’ those laws (the wall) they put in place so we couldn’t turn them away.

——they are looking for a better life.”-—

Then they must be returned to their shitholes where they must expend the thought and sweaat to construct a better life.

If they must, they must kill their opressors

What the hell is this?

Did CNN and the NGO’s encourage them to pull this illegal stunt? If so, surely they committed a crime. Are crimes no longer prosecuted?

Is Mexico aiding and abetting this invasion? Surely this is an act of war!

I live in San Diego — we are large county, 90 miles wide by 70 miles tall, with coastal, inland valley, mountain, and desert areas. It would not be difficult to set up a Sheriff Joe-style tent city in the Anza Borrego and put all of these illegal alien invaders into it while their phony asylum claims are processed and adjudicated. Trailers with cooling units can be made available to the elderly, pregnant, and young children. No releasing into the U.S. with ankle bracelets they immediately remove and disappear into the illegal alien invader diaspora. Thirty or 60 days baking & freezing in the desert will get right their thinking. Next, cancel NAFTA immediately and stop any and all foreign aid to Mexico and countries with which they are in league. Third, build the wall now; use the DoD and a slice of its manpower and budget to do so (Army, Air Force, Marine engineers and Navy SeaBees).

They are supposed to seek assylum at the first country they reach.. Mexico isn’t good enough? They want Americans to provide them with a windfall of Free Stuff. What is the percentage of legitimate refugees? We never hear that statistic.. It’s very low, I’m sure.

Liberals have no heart and they certainly have no brain.. They help no one but themslves with their insane policies.

My grandparents came to this country to have a better way of life.. They had to have a sponsor and a livelihood set up before they were allowed into the country. They spoke only ENGLISH in the home because they wanted to Contribute to America.. They respected America.. They Loved America.. They Wanted to become AMERICANS..

God Bless the LEGAL immigrants.

Let them take ‘asylum’ in Mexico. We’re full to over flowing with ‘refugees’.

I take it they are under the control of US leftist lawyers who handle them each step of the way.

Every one of them who enters will cost the taxpayers at least one million dollars (EBT, medicaid, WIC, Section 8, legal fees, incarceration, EITC, etc, etc) over their lifetime. Then multiply that by every pup they whelp and every mamacita and tía they drag along now or later. Don't forget to factor in the innocent American lives destroyed by their criminal activity or drunken escapades.

These people are fat, lazy cornfed grifters looking for free money. The reason their countries are sh*tholes is because they allow it. They all lay about in their tropical paradise too lazy to fix what's broken. Mañana, mañana, mañana, …

These slugs are not going to transform into Horatio Alger once they cross the border. Horatio Alger is just as foreign to them as integral calculus or puritan morality.

Time for Trump to cut off the allowances we pay to Mexico and the Central American crap holes that are sending us their unwanted masses.

Why can’t Trump send the US Army to the border to halt the invasion?

For Trump to do anything quick thats lasting. (Like restore Constitutional Government!)It will require a guaranteed 5-4 on the USSC. Because everything and I mean everything will be judicially contested and ultimately end up there! We are not there yet. And voters in Alabama made that harder! The 2018 midterm will be the watershed and determine whether the Trump Revolution is a flash in the pan.

I agree.

If the Trump Revolution fails, America falls.

“Why do you allow them to be such shitholes?”

Hey! Only they can call their countries shitholes. We’re not allowed to. :)

If they don't cross the border they can't claim asylum and don't need to be detained - which would give them the right to take it to a radical left-wing US judge.

There are accepted & effective nonlethal measures to prevent invaders from forcing entry into someone else’s country.
