In short, no.
We are no going to fire on civilians. Once they are here, we have to treat them like anyone else in the country.
I guess they could scare them, but that’s not going to last long.
I stand by my plan of a single person standing there with a clipboard and a pen. Fill out the applications, one at a time. On the border. Let the traffic back up. No night hours. No weekends. No overtime.
Well, some more military is on the way.
SecDef Mattis announced 800 more, reports say active duty, and the rumor mill says folks from the 82nd Airborne Division are being alerted for movement.
No sense in just sending a bunch of people and a mountain of supplies running around, until you know where along the border they will be needed. So getting the Intel was the first task.
Then the advance party goes to lay out the base and stockpile supplies for the arrival of the main body.
Either they will send the DRB-1, the Infantry Battalion (augmented with its direct support logistics slice) that is currently on the duty roster to be first deployed, or they will tailor a logistics-heavy advance party/task force.
They will move forward, establishing life support functions, and base operations, like security and a motor pool/buses.
If there is an identified Engineer mission (e.g. barriers like concertina or fencing), they will get right to work on that.
I would think they would mostly move on to an existing base somewhere, if it is within range of the mission.
If the plan is for larger element, then the advance party will prepare everything for them to flow in quickly.
No sense having a lot of good paratroopers just sitting around deployed for a month or two, especially if the caravan is stopped by Mexico, or it turns toward a different State.
First of all; it’s an invading horde. Second; two words. Martial Law. Use it just along the border plus 3-5 miles as needed so the troops have more leeway. Use rubber bullets and bean bags in shotguns if necessary.
The time for pussy footing around with this problem is over with. Time to get deadly serious about preserving our country.
Where there’s a will, there’s a way.
Beats my idea of Jalapeno hot sauce. Plus it would be a shame to waste the sauce.
Not if the military can not use any kind of force to deter them.

Most of those ‘caravan’ hombres would really enjoy a Jalapeno rinse...
If a large bore hose was used and caltrops were mixed with that hotsauce...
That might work.
How did South America get involved?
slathered in hot-sauce.
A game of Spiced Pokey Foots.
Money is the universal language.
Declare a national emergency and war with Mexico. Lawyers take a hike. US troops enter Mexico and eliminate any resistance. Bomb all cartel safe houses simultaneously. Russia did it to Crimea.
soap
potato, potahto … sigh … ok Central America lolol
Not unless they’re ordered to shoot.
The democrat funded caravan, democrats mailing bombs to the themselves, isn’t all that meddling in elections?
You are precisely correct. The freaks of congress know this too and even with a majority are unwilling to change the stupid law. Why? PAYOLA!!!!
most corrupt nation on earth. Right here and right now.
