Migrant caravans swell to 12,000, get some help along the way
Fox News ^ | Nov. 4, 2018 | William La Jeunesse

In the small town of Veracruz, Mexico, at a gas station and truck stop, two nuns began stopping big rigs Sunday to fill the trailers with waiting migrants from the caravan.

The caravan is trying to make 116 miles, a record for them, considering the first day walking in Mexico they traveled just 20 miles.

The Catholic nuns at the scene are from Guadalajara’s Misioneras de Christo Resuscitado, and as a big red 18-wheeler approached, they flagged down the driver, stepped on the running board on the passenger side and spoke for about 5 minutes. The driver then gave a reluctant wave of the hand, one of the nuns spoke and dozens of young men ran to the rear to open the two tall metal doors.

An organizer appeared with a bullhorn, and loaded dozens of women and children and strollers inside. As soon as that truck left, with one door tied open, another approached. And again the nuns convinced him to fill his empty trailer with migrants.

How do these big rigs have room for riders?

An empty 45 foot trailer can hold a lot of people.

Maybe some of them will make it to Tijuana in a few weeks. Build the wall!

they Globalist Hoardes were successful in sacking Europe, now they have set their sights on the USA.

The "Caravan" is a globalist invasion force, I can picture them with AK-47's instead of sticks and stones.

Sticks and stones and child shields will be much more difficult to defend against than AK-47s

Another reason to stop donating to the Catholic Church.

Tell that to various governments around the world, including ours. There are huge amounts of government money being funneled to the Catholic Church

This is NOTHING like the report of the caravan on One America News.

What’s going on, Bill?

The latest stopped truck at the Mexican
border had 217 invaders inside the
trailer. At that rate it would take
55 trucks.

Maybe we should get a GoFundMe page so we can rent a fleet of empty trucks. Offer them a ride then close the doors and head south.

if any of these trucks are NAFTA trucks, pull their license to cross into America. Under that threat, not even nuns will be able to convince them to give up their livelihood.

Catholic Church working with Organizors to field trucks for the migrants to reach the US Border.

Nov.4, 2018 Sunday

Nuns flagged down the driver, stepped on the running board on the passenger side and spoke for about 5 minutes.

The driver then gave a wave of the hand, one of the nuns spoke and dozens of young men ran

to the rear to open the two tall metal doors.

An organizer appeared with a bullhorn, and loaded dozens of people.. As soon as that truck left, with one door

tied open, 'another approached'. And again the nuns flagged him

to fill his empty trailer with migrants.

As said.....12000 basically unskilled non-English speaking people dragging kids... Creating a drag on social programs,.. clogging schools, ...requiring English as a second language tutors and teachers.... Competing directly with our own employment challenged citizens just now returning to the job participation market.....Not going to own property and contribute to school taxes...... Not going to earn enough to significantly contribute to sales taxes.

So the upside is????

There isn’t an upside. Thus the meme.
