Migrants enveloped in tear gas after heading toward US

Migrants approaching the U.S. border... were enveloped with tear gas Sunday after a few tried to breach the fence separating the two countries.... Honduran migrant Ana Zuniga, 23, said she saw migrants open a small hole in concertina wire at a gap on the Mexican side of a levee, at which point U.S. agents fired tear gas at them....

Mexico’s Milenio TV also showed images of several migrants at the border trying to jump over the fence....

U.S. Border Patrol helicopters flew overhead, while U.S. agents held vigil on foot beyond the wire fence....

... several hundred Central American migrants pushed past a blockade of Mexican police who were standing guard... They appeared to easily pass through without using violence,...

They convened the demonstration to try to pressure the U.S to hear their asylum claims and carried hand-painted American and Honduran flags while chanting: “We are not criminals! We are international workers!”

A second line of Mexican police carrying plastic riot shields stood guard outside a Mexican customs and immigration plaza. That line of police had installed tall steel panels behind them outside the Chaparral crossing .... Migrants were asked by police to turn back toward Mexico....[snip]

Irineo Mujica, who has accompanied the migrants for weeks as part of the aid group Pueblo Sin Fronteras, said the aim of Sunday’s march toward the U.S. border was to make the migrants’ plight more visible to the governments of Mexico and the U.S. “We can’t have all these people here,” Mujica told The Associated Press....[snip]

Mexico’s Interior Ministry said ... has sent 11,000 Central Americans back to their countries since Oct. 19.... 1,906 of them were members of the recent caravans.

Mexico is on track to send a total of around 100,000 Central Americans back home by the end of this year.

“The Centro Sin Fronteras Community Services Network (CSF), whose name is Spanish for “Center Without Borders,” is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization that promotes open borders and strives to advance the rights of illegal aliens in the United States. CSF is headquartered in Chicago’s Lincoln United Methodist Church (LUMC), whose co-pastors — Emma Lozano and her husband, Walter “Slim” Coleman — founded the organization in 1987. They established CSF in memory of Ms. Lozano’s late brother, the left-wing community organizer Rudy Lozano, whose son was the Communist Party USA / Young Communist League activist Pepe Lozano.”

“One million barrels of Venezuelan crude would sell for around $76 million at the daily basket price for Tuesday, September 18, far less than the amount China has promised to grant China. The discount suggests that either Venezuela is preparing to ship significantly more than that initial amount to China or that China is paying for more than oil with that credit line.”

“The MSM claims the Pueblo Sin Fronteras is the group behind the migrant caravan, but who’s funding them? Who’s really behind it all?...Rodrigo Abeja is one lead organizer of ‘Pueblo Sin Fronteras’. As a organizer, Abeja, states ‘Pueblo Sin Fronteras’ has been helping lead migrants to the U.S. in caravans for over 15 years so they can seek asylum....ALEX MENSING, Pueblo Sin Fronteras AND THE SOROS CONNECTION...”

I don’t know how to get this pic of Soros displayed. It’s rather important.

Here is a very well written accounting of the problem we face with Central American immigrants arriving at our border. It IS a Wa-Po article which everyone calls Compost and liars; yet that is not always the case. If you find more honest factual reporting on this situation, let us know. Do share.

Comprehensive investigative reporting is expensive and there are few right leaning news organizations that have the resources to compete in the international market.

Now that’s a rich find!!!

The motivator is the resettlement fees. Now we see the methodist connection, another ‘faith based’ charity ready to lend a had.

These bogus Methodist leaders combined with the bogus Catholic leaders stand to collect millions off this ‘caravan’ when they hit and scatter within California.

Reminder: The Obama Admin also used force and tear gas in 2013 when a large group of people stormed our border and threw rocks at our agents—at the same exact place. Source:https://twitter.com/brandondarby/status/1066875445084397568

Thousands of Additional Migrants Headed to U.S. Border

…” The Mexican news site reported that the group was primarily made up of young adult males. The migrants said they felt betrayed by their compatriots who had told them that they would be allowed to enter the U.S and request asylum.

"“International workers” is not a legitimate asylum claim."

You should tweet that to Trump, and I hope he uses it!

Here’s a close up video of them getting thru a break in the fence and them going back after being tear gassed.

A couple of rounds of CS gas will send them packing in short order....it want kill or even hurt them but it’ll make you think twice about trying to force your way into the USA.

Right, so don’t use known lying media sources as a source on FR.//

This is absolutely wrong. We definitely need / want these lying sources posted here. As somebody who’s been on FR 15+ years I can say the best things about FR are these types of posts. Why do you think most of the big media won’t allow us to post their so called news? The best thing about FR are these posts followed by everybody quickly pointing out the crap.

Agree. I thought this one was interesting. A Mexican police officer is telling a group from the caravan to not break thru. Also, to not use children as a means to break thru (aka human shield). To stop listening to the people telling them to do so.

>>We are international workers!<<

Than go to “internation” and get a job. We only want US citizen workers here.
