BREAKING NEWS: We will open fire on the immigrant caravan if they throw stones says Trump
Daily Mail ^ | November 1, 2018 | Geoff Earle

President Donald Trump issued a dire warning to would-be immigrants making their way toward the U.S., warning that thousands of U.S. troops being sent to the border would return fire if caravan members throw rocks at them.

Trump has already ordered thousands of troops to the southern border, and was asked after delivering a fiery speech at the White House whether he envisioned them firing on the people making there way approaching the border on foot.

'I hope not. I hope not. It's the military. I hope there won't be that. But I will tell you this: Anybody throwing stones, rocks, like they did to Mexico and the Mexican military, Mexican police – where they badly hurt police and soldiers of Mexico – we will consider that a firearm,' Trump warned.

If rocks and stones (or worse) are directed at our troops you can bet the Enemedia will not show that.

Instead they will show US troops firing on those “poor women and children”.

Our troops should be allowed to defend themselves. No doubt.

Rocks are a deadly weapon. No question about that.

If it’s Copacabana.....lol

About 3 back-to-back iterations should do it.

Or, I say we go for the really, really heavy artillery. Large screens showing this video and blasting as loud as possible:

rock salt. Worked for centuries to get rid of varmits, including little kids stealing pumpkins. These are big kids, but they still want to steal our pumpkins.

these are viable options. Like 'em. I saw the military manifest about who is going to the border ( if it's true ) - too late for loose lips etc....

No mentions of the type of weapons they be bringing.

I knew the idiot press would feature this one comment!

LET IT SINK IN

Like General Mattis said, “We don’t do stunts.”

Throw a rock, catch a bullet. Imagine how fast we could have subdued Iraq with such bold rules of engagement!

LMAO, loving the video of “Mr Pepperballs” getting shot in the crotch!! This happened after he threw and kicked tear gas canisters at Phoenix Police following an August 2017 Trump rally.

He’s a scumbag Antifa type, works for GoDaddy. He was originally charged with 19 felonies. As far as I know, he still has a job with GoDaddy.

You heard what I heard - the “fake news” trying to gin up controversy, as usual.
